Ouch... I see that the pain of defeat has made you see the events in a different manner. It was a good game. I write game review later. It is too bad that you guys could not handle the pressure mentally and fell apart. Can you try to be gracious on defeat? I really have never seen a team swear and threaten people so much (i.e. fans, players, referees)The 60 fans and the law he promised never showed up,just him being a dick,his players even apologised for him they were embarrassed.at one point he ran up to the Harps bench,someone stood up and he ran like a school girl.
Watched bits and pieces of both the Semi final games. Strikers played very solid and were full credit for the win. I am surprised they were not promoted.
GN, NorVan, Snipers, and Campo are capable of beating all of the 2B teams on the day.Strikers were just unlucky this year to be drawn on the tougher Div 2B side, would probably have gotten promoted out of 2A

Interesting posts. For motivational reasons, I would tend to agree with @Rino's Hat, as this would give us an added incentive to keep working hard. Campo will be in a final as the underdog according to the Rino's pundits.
However, the evidence would tend to support the position of @Cool As Ice and @True Lies.
1) Indirect pairings. Campo 2 - Harps 0. Campo was the dominant team without doubt. Harps 6 - Rino 3 (on aggregate - 1 win for Harps, 1 win for Rino, 1 draw). This suggests that Harps and Rino are about even. Thus, Campo is better than the top division 2B team.
In addition, Campo has been of similar strength as of Norvan and GN; thus, we can conclude that Norvan and GN should be stronger than Rinos as well.
2) Statistical Data.
Both divisions have the same average number of points per team. It is about 29 for both divisions.
However, both divisions have a different ranges. Division 2a has a range of 29 and Division 2b has a range of 49. This is huge! It means that Division 2a has more internal competition.
In addition, the standard deviations are different. They do not have a ratio of 1View attachment 13450 View attachment 13449

I don't have the knowledge to have an opinion on this one but I just have to say "Wow, where do you find the time - to chart out the probabilities?!"
