TomTranmere Posted October 23, 2011 Share Posted October 23, 2011 Hey guys sorry if this is a known bug or something but I am managing Litex in the Bulgarian A group and looking at the league table have no idea why I am not currently top. Checking on the rules it goes by head to head and then goal difference for league sorting BUT I have already played second place side Chernomorets and drew 0-0... so I should at very least be ahead of them. My goal difference is superior to both sides ahead of me. Any thoughts? :confused: Link to post Share on other sites More sharing options...
Nottingham Forest Posted October 23, 2011 Share Posted October 23, 2011 How did you do against the top team? If they beat you, then they should be top. If Burgas beat them then they'll be ahead of you because they drew with you. So in theory You-Burgas(Draw) You-Top Team(Top Team Win) Top Team-Burgas(Draw). So top team is top, Burgas second and you're third. Link to post Share on other sites More sharing options...
kris0710 Posted October 23, 2011 Share Posted October 23, 2011 Total guess here but did u play second place at home? Or does head to head only count once u played the team twice? Link to post Share on other sites More sharing options...

FrazT Posted October 23, 2011 Share Posted October 23, 2011 Usually ( cant guarantee this in this league ) if there is a tie under these kind of circumstances, the game sets up a mini league with all the tied team and looks at all the head to heads then grades the teams.

POMPEY657 Posted October 23, 2011 Share Posted October 23, 2011 It's not about goal difference when level on points in that league. As people have already said, it comes down to the one on one win ratio between each other. Link to post Share on other sites More sharing options...
TomTranmere Posted October 23, 2011 Author Share Posted October 23, 2011 I played top team and lost 2-0 Top team have not yet played second I played and drew with second place 0-0 So I guess it comes down to the fact that top team have 3 points from 1 game, I have 1 point from 2 games and 3rd place has 1 point from 2 games so I suppose they give it to them on goal difference. Thanks for clearing that up Nottingham Forest I was a bit baffled. Link to post Share on other sites More sharing options...
The Welsh Lad Posted October 23, 2011 Share Posted October 23, 2011 The rules for this league are: League Points Head-to-head Goal Difference Goal Scored So taking it step by step. Slavia (Sofia) would be sorted by head-to-head with you and goal difference with Chernomorets (Burgas) this would put them in 1st place Chernomorets (Burgas) would be sorted by head-to-head with you because of a draw it should then be sorted by Goal Difference which should put them in 3rd Leaving you in 2nd Link to post Share on other sites More sharing options...
Gusano Posted October 23, 2011 Share Posted October 23, 2011 does it really matter? it's not even the first half of the season. Link to post Share on other sites More sharing options...
KYMYK Posted October 23, 2011 Share Posted October 23, 2011 I take it you drew 0-0 with Chernomorets at HOME and they probably lost a game against Slavia. Link to post Share on other sites More sharing options...
The Welsh Lad Posted October 23, 2011 Share Posted October 23, 2011 does it really matter? it's not even the first half of the season. It does matter because if the placings are not following the rules at this stage in the game, it wont be following them at the end of the season therefore it would possibly be a bug.

mije1983 Posted October 23, 2011 Share Posted October 23, 2011 As was said further up, when it's like this the teams in question get put into their own 'mini league'. So the results so far are: Slavia 2 - 0 Litex Litex 0 - 0 Chernomorets 1st Slavia 3pts +2GD 2nd Chernomorets 1pt 0GD 3rd Litex 1pt -2GD So from the info we have from the OP the game is correct Link to post Share on other sites More sharing options...
