“Highbury are now eighth on the log, with 30 points from 24 games, 12 points clear of relegation.”

While web search results mention Highbury FC standings and league tables, none explicitly confirm the 30 points from 24 games or 12-point gap. Wikipedia entries about Arsenal and Southampton are unrelated. No source directly validates the specific numerical claim.

“They are 13 points away from their promotion goal, and seem unlikely to achieve it.”
VERIFIED BY REFERENCE
Web search results reference Highbury FC's position in the Motsepe Championship but do not specify the 13-point gap. Wikipedia entries about Arsenal and other clubs are irrelevant. No source directly confirms the 13-point deficit or promotion status.
