S-League rankings

In this post, I will not just simply show you the current league tables of the S-League. I shall be structuring out a mini survey on the number of points on each win and so on and so for.

Woodlans are starting their freefall, failing to win since their first league match. However, their position ranks high bcause of their victory in the League Cup. SAFFC are in the top of the league, but due to their disinvolvement in the League Cup, their point total is rather limited.

Just to let you look at the tabulated results first. As of 5th April 2007.

1) Woodlands 43
2) SAFFC 38
3) Tampines 38
4) Sengkang 29
5) Home Utd 27
6) Gombak 23
7) Geylang 15
8) Young Lions 14
9) Balestier 9
10) Albirex 9
11) Super Reds 5
12) Liaoning 0

Let me further explain this. SAFFC and Tampines are so high up, because of their involvement in the AFC Cup. I awarded 11points for a win and 5 points for a draw. A draw in the AFC Cup is equivalent to a win in the S-League. However, a win by three goals or more is awarded 1 bonus point, while a win by 6 goals or more, as demonstrated by SAFFC's mauling of Super Reds, has a bonus of 2.

The reason why Geylang and Young Lions are on the bottom half od the table is due to their disinvolvement in the League Cup and the AFC Cup, hence they only ave the league to depend on for points. Sengkang seem so good, and their league position is not bad either. Their final berth in the League Cup contributed many achievement points, as in the case of Woodlands, who are now in reach of SAF and Tampines.

This table is somehow or rather accurate. I shall update again in a month's time.
