    Plymouth or Blackburn could go down ...

    ... they'll be wondering how that could happen.

    I think Birmingham are goosed. Norwich at home on final day. Nothing less than a win will do really although if they sneak a draw then Plymouth could get sucked in if Hull give them a pasting. Sheff We’d will beat us so no problems there and Blackburn would be very unlucky to get sucked in they’ve got to be hoping Leicester are still hungover from Friday night

    Realistically Norwich have nothing to play for although they may feel safer with a point, that's what I think they'll go for.

    Birmingham have no real option but to go for the win.

    Hull absolutely must win at Plymouth which might be Birmingham's get out of jail card.

    A point is enough for Sheff Wed which is a situation that can be dangerous.

    Other way round mate, they're 10 goals behind Birmingham.

    Sheff Wed lose, Birmingham and Plymouth win ...

    ... Sheff Wed are down.

    :emoticon-0140-rofl::emoticon-0140-rofl: How have I managed to get that mixed up.

    Be a nervy away end at the SoL if Birmingham and Plymouth score early

    Easily done mate, it's a confusing situation ...

    ... as you say the mood can have massive swings depending on scores elsewhere.

    If Sheff Wed lose, we celebrate and they go down there could well be trouble.

    There's no way that we'd celebrate, or gloat in any way . . . . why would we, so there shouldn't be any trouble :emoticon-0112-wonde

    Apart from that I'm not expecting S.A.F.C. to win anyway, they only need a point, so they'll be happy enough :emoticon-0148-yes:

    Would be quite funny if ROberts gets his only goal of the season to relegate Sheff Wed.
    He scored the goal (for Derby) that relegated them to L1
    He scored the goal (for us) that beat them in the play offs

    There would be a nice symmetry to it all

    If Ipswich lose at Coventry tonight it's going to make for a very interesting final day...

    Leeds have the GD advantage so would be favourites imo.

    1 win in 7 for Coventry. They’re burnt out I feel after a long hard season. I’d be surprised if Ipswich didn’t go there and win tonight. Huge game for them
