I take the GYSA team results and feed them into a website (that I don't run) that creates a lot of interesting graphs and probabilities. I will keep this up to date every week once most of the scores from the weekend have come in. Here are all of the links:

How this works:
I feed in information about the group, including things like how many points for a win/tie/loss, how often ties happen (historically speaking), how many teams are promoted or relegated, and a lot of other stuff.
Then I feed in the entire season schedule, with scores where they exist.
Once the system has all that it starts running simulations. It picks random scores for every game weighted just a little by the team's previous results. Then it calculates how the season would end with those random scores. Then it does it again, and again, and again, about 10 million times per bracket. This is much like an analysis method called the Monte Carlo Method.
Then it tallies up all those results and makes predictions. These are just weighted guesses, and the farther we get into the season the more accurate those guesses will become.
Remember to explore. Move your mouse over team names, click on team names. Lots of interesting stuff is hidden behind those links.
Again, I do not run sportsclubstats, I just provide the data to create these 'league' pages. It's a free service (donationware) run by an individual.
