Contenders Rating Scale:Mathematically being a Clairvoyant on the Football
League Table
www.taiwokehinde-mymind.blogspot.com3
The Contenders Rating Scale (CRS) is the approach employed to having an analysis and postulation of the final table outcome, having
considered the Top 5 teams in the league in view over the last 5 years prior to the season in view.
The CRS entails being a clairvoyant on a minimum of 3 teams that could have a top 5 finish at the season climax (in no particular
order).
What are the aims of the CRS?
To week in week out build the excitement of the football
season;
To have an upbeat
approach to predicting the log across the major football
seasons;
To be perceived as the “table log magician” across the 5
major European football seasons,
courtesy the ≥3 table prediction capability the CRS achieves

• A close check on the top 5 teams in each of the last 5 years (seasons) -2008/2009, 2009/2010, 2010/2011 and the 2012/2013- preceding the season in consideration.
1. Top 5 placement check
• In analysing the last 5 years thereby paying attention to the top 5 teams in these years, a 5 mark (point) scale would be given to each team based on their final league table placement.
2. The allotment of grade points/marks
• Points gotten by every team that had a top 5 finish would be summed up and the teams with the top 5 points would make the cut (Contenders Rating Scale table)
3. Grade point Accumulation of all
teams over the considered 5 years

• In analysing the last 5 years, paying attention to the top 5 teams in these years, a 5 mark (point) scale would be given to each team based on their final league table placement.
The order through which these teams would be allotted points is as follows;• The 1st placed team will
have 5 marks (mks)• The 2nd placed team will
have 4 mks.• The 3rd placed team will
have 3 mks.• The 4th placed team will
have 2 mks.• The 5th placed team will
have 1 mk.

…Watching football only exudes your love of the game, being a fan of a national team exudes patriotism and/or allegiance to a country but being a fan of a football club defines your passion for the beautiful game. Viva Futbol!!!
