	Halfway Review of the Play-off Group

	HOW THE PREDICTIONS COMPARE AS THE TEAMS GO HALFWAY IN THE PLAY OFFS

	ALTAY İZMİR
	They are okay and I did say they would be top 5, so no disapointment here. They are playing
	well and maybe I will have to eat my words about them not getting up, at the first time of
	asking.

	DİYARBAKIRSPOR
	Had a dreadful start against Konya, but now in the driving seat. Hasan Çelik has again been
	an inspiration and has played well. This prediction is going according to plan and they
	will be very close at the end

	ELAZIĞSPOR
	Have been playing some nice football but are not strong enough and I said bottom 3, this is
	looking that way as well. I thought against Göztepe that they could do well in the second
	part, but after the drilling I do not think so.

	GÖZTEPE
	After weeks of playing boring football and grinding out wins, they must have read my
	reports and changed to wonderful attacking play and its looking good for them now.

	HACILAR ERCİYES
	I still think they can get up to 1st league even if it is via the play offs. Unusual
	results like getting beaten easy one week then thrash Hatay and Sivas. Are they saving the
	best till last and really are in a good position as this years play offs so far is open
	between the top 6.

	HATAYSPOR
	I got this one exactly right and it will not get better. They should beat Sivas though
	after so much play. Looking back I do not think they had enough belief in themselves to
	think they could give a good go, maybe next season.

	İSTANBUL BŞ BLD
	I got this right aswell. On their day they can be excellent but they lose too many players
	to sendings off and the manager lost the plot from go. The trouble with this team also is
	they do not have depth in their squad.

	KONYASPOR
	Apart from losing to Hacılar, there is no reason why they should not finish in the top 2,
	and also Ercüment is hitting the target again. Şampiyonlar Yeşil ve beyaz Konyaspor, maybe.

	SİVASSPOR
	They are the draw specialists of this group and not much up front to show they can trouble
	the leaders and the 6-1 thrashing by Hacılar shows this teams weaknesses and I saw it
	coming weeks ago.

	ŞEKER
	It would help if you got a crowd, such a big stadium with only about 100 people for a
	game. Finally did manage a win and Mustafa has started to look dangerous but he seems to be
	a one man team. They also have proved me right by being in the bottom 4.
