I said people were being too casual about things. All we need tomorrow is this: Stoke defeat Birmingham draw (Preston) Boro draw (Cardiff) Luton win Charlton draw and the table will look like this: 20. Stoke 50 21. Charlton 48 ------------------ 22. Luton 48 Last games are: Stoke - Forest (A) Charlton - Drunken Leeds (A) Luton - Nothing to play for Blackburn (H) We are absolutely nowhere near safe and this result tonight is absolutely dreadful. Doesn't a Charlton draw mean Wigan go ?

So "all we need" to go down are 8 (eight) results to go exactly the way you're predicting. The chances of us being relegated remain tiny. They do remain tiny. But they’re significantly less tiny than they were 20 minutes ago.

Brentford now need 4 pts from 2 games and they are at home to Barnsley on the last day. Would they settle for a point if we are level in the closing stages tomorrow ? 🤔

Wigan win and luton draw and its all over, you're forgetting these teams are down the bottom for a reason.

No we're not mathematically safe but I'm also not going to worry myself into a nervous breakdown with every goal that goes in. It's got nothing to do with being "casual" about the situation, it's about understanding the fact I have zero influence on the situation.
Anyway, back to stressing yourselves silly.

But they’re significantly less tiny than they were 20 minutes ago. Exactly and this is the sort of shit that if it gets anyone it will be us. When you look at major things going wrong it’s rarely one single event, it’s normally a series coming together. The first one has just locked in with this result. Next will be our loss tomorrow. I just don’t get this certainty that we will be safe.

So in reality Wigan have to win meaning Charlton then have to win at Leeds . Plus Forest may rest a few for the play offs. I like a bet occasionally We would be approx 100/1 to go down now given all the permutations.
Personally I think we are up, mathematical we aren't.

Watching Stoke is stressful enough without having to worry about all these other permutations

All that wonga spent, 10 years in the Prem, putting nine past Spurs and Liverpool over two home games- and now we're shaking like a shitting dog about Brentford at home.
(No offence intended to Brentford, who've done a brilliant job of progressing their club but they're not what you'd call a traditional power in the top two divisions of English football- a bit like when Wigan were on the rise under Paul Jewell)

I wish I'd put a bet on. I knew WBA would choke when it counted. Brentford are a machine right now and who knows what the scoreline will be when we play them.

Isn’t it a disgrace that these Sky commentators don’t actually realise that Huddersfield are mathematically safe?

We could get points from both Brentford and Forest, a Hull and Luton draw would be welcome.

If we can’t have a draw tomorrow at Hull then home win would be better given they are away at Cardiff in the last game .
Well done Mr Scholes you’ve bought us to this from the 30th richest club in the world and top ten in the premier League in 4 short years . It’s a clusterfuck that puts you in a club of 2 with captain smith as stoke on Trents leading fucker uppers ever, which is some bar to achieve amd at least he could blame others you’ve had literally everything in your favour and still stand on the brink of the unthinkable

Which would you rather have? Luton's points and Luton's fixtures - or our points and our fixtures? Plus if you're considering frame of mind of opposition if Forest are already in the playoffs they may be saving themselves for the semis.

5 points off the bottom 3 with a better goal difference, come on, we're safe Our goal difference is irrelevant now though, a lot of sides have nothing to play for and if two teas blag wins in both their last two matches we're sunk. Don't see us getting a point from ours. Not saying it's likely to happen, but it's not at all ridiculous.

Gotta say it would be fucking mint if WBA bottle it now and lose in the play offs. If they don’t go up automatically they’ll definitely fuck up inthe play offs Whoopee another season to enjoy the Vine Nah, same was Leeds fucked it last year their confidence will be rocking from bottling automatic spots and a plucky shite side like Cardiff on good form will rob the playoff final.

We will get something at forest. They’ll be resting players for play offs and not risking any injuries.👍

If it came with the caveat of safety, I could live with helping Brentford leapfrog West Brom tomorrow. Payback for them trousering £18m from us for the combined 'talents' of Berahindrance and the dyslexic Provo. Plus, I'd be more confident of taking 4-6 points off the Boggies next season than Brentford.

I like how all these sides are capable of overtaking us no matter what fixtures they have, but we are incapable of getting another point to get us safe, despite being the best of a criminally bad bunch. Yes, anything can happen, but there’s no point worrying about this much. Let’s get it done tomorrow at home. Fuck Brentford, let’s piss on their bonfire.
Charlton, Birmingham and Middlesbrough are in more precarious positions than us.
