I actually wasn't aware of any financial benefit from the playoffs themselves

Other than crowd receipts. Indeed could be useful.

Shame we had that terrible patch after the start of the season when Sarge was injured, when Gunn was injured, before Sainz was fit enough to play and before Kenny, Gibson and Nunez were playing at their current level (should give Wagner some credit for that I think).

I think we would have been in the mix for automatic at the moment if it hadn't been for all those key injuries.

    - Not with our away form (NCFC) - jamesward, Apr 8, 10:23:54
      - Last 10 games - 2.2 points a game = 101 points (n/m) (NCFC) - Legacy Fan, Apr 8, 10:27:17
        
        Does that include 6 home games and 4 away by any chance? (n/m) (NCFC) - jamesward, Apr 8, 10:29:39
        
        If so, 3 pts a game home + 1pt a game away = 2 pts a game, 92 total (NCFC) - Legacy Fan, Apr 8, 12:55:27
