Nim’s Stat
Games don’t win titles — points do. But four games in hand keeps this alive.
Vale do what they’ve done all season — score goals and take the points. Eight on the board, 112 for the season, and still top.
But the table doesn’t sit level.
Vale have played 23. Castlemilk have played 19. Paisley 20. Garrison 22.
That’s the gap.
Right now, Vale lead on points and output. But the pressure sits elsewhere. Castlemilk are four games back and still within reach. Paisley and Garrison are in between — close enough to stay involved, but needing results to match the pace.
At the other end, the numbers are starting to run out. The gap is there, and with fewer fixtures left, it becomes harder to close.
This division isn’t settled. It’s just uneven.
Vale are setting the pace.
The rest are chasing — with games still to play.
