That's true but I think the 3 point deduction demoralised the players and probably affected some of the results , Crewe springs to mind , which could well have been wins instead of defeats.
With our goal difference being so bad it would have taken 71 points for us to make the play-offs and that is 10 more than our total if there was no penalty of 3 points. Not impossible to see 3 wins and a draw from that dreadful run of games that sandwiched the wins over Accy and Barra.
