League 1 - 7 games in....

So 7 games in...how is it looking...  
Stevenage continue their impressive form with a ppg of 2 but Oxford and Port Vale are the two teams who are earning enough points per game to be in and around the top 2 when the season end. 

Exeter's loss to Leyton Orient changes their destination from the automatics to the playoffs. How they fare in the next 7 games will be fascinating. Will they do a Wimbledon on 2021 / 2022 and fade away down the table or is there a top 6 team at St James Park this year? 

In 2021 / 2022 Rotherham came from mid-table to finish runners up but I don't think anyone below 1.86ppg can hope for the top 2 anymore. Reading and Wigan are distorting the picture at the bottom as they wouldn't be there but for the points deduction.....meaning it is looking particularly grim for Cheltenham, Fleetwood and Burton already. 

 History would suggest they are in significant trouble already.

League 1 - 21 games played.  It's all to play for!  Portsmouth continue their blistering pace and are surely hopeful of finally escaping...
