Isthmian South East Division – PPG Table

Here is the Points Per Game Table for the BetVictor Isthmian Premier Division.

Could this be the way to solve the season if it is to end early and without resolution?

The PPG table differs slightly from the main table below as teams have played anywhere from 25 to 30 games. In this Division we have play-offs which will certainly provide arguments when we discuss how the season should be solved if it ends early. Positions 2 to 5 were to play-off to find a winner that would go up to the Isthmian Premier with the team at the top. As there is unlikely to be any football allowed for a few months now it has been stopped it is unrealistic to hold the play-offs so my simple solution would be to just promote the top 2 in the PPG table which in this case is the Champions Hastings United and the runners up Cray Valley PM.
For relegation this season the bottom club in this Division was to play-off against a 2nd place Step 5 team. There is no easy solution to this as there will be no games for many months I believe. I would personally make the decision to reward success not failure and relegate the bottom club and promote the 2nd placed Step 5 club so in this case that would be bad news for East Grinstead Town.
