My sympathies for the long beery day in the sun, and the arse like a blackbird's beak.

If we lose and Sunderland win, by definition there's at least a 2 goal swing, and they've scored more goals so they finish above us.

We are in the driving seat and kick-off in the play-offs but something keeps niggling at me, we should be at least 4 goals better off goal diffence wise in when you think of those missed Vik chances v Reading, just hope there’s no irony we fail because Sunderland land a 1-0 win against a 0-1 defeat for us and sneak in courtesy of those string of guilt edged missed chances from our free scoring centre-forward.

dont worry, Dom Hyam will get a 99th minute equaliser for blackburn, saving us with the last kick of the season . He will then in celebration tear off his Blackburn shirt, to show his sky blue colours underneath, and break into the Doug King song

We’ve given Preston at least 4 points a season every year we’ve been in the same division.
They owe us this favour

It's been a long beery day in the sun I'm struggling...

Need all the info laid out to get my head around it.

Middlesbrough v Cov
Millwall v Blackburn
Swansea v WBA
Preston v Sunderland

A point and we are in.

we lose a draw wouldn't be enough for WBA or Sund.

Millwall could overtake us by drawing and a 5 goal swing

WBA need a win and a 5 goal swing to pip us

Sunderland need a win and 2 goal swing

On paper we should be confident but I have got to say my arse will be like a blackbirds beak come 3pm Monday

Blackburn are poor away and Millwall are pretty solid at home.

Sunderland are very good away and Preston are poor at home. Preston also have zero to play for.

Despite their poor results recently Middlesbrough still have one of the best home forms in the division.

I can't particularly see West Brom getting anything out of Swansea, and the GD is likely too much to overturn anyway.

It's certainly ours to lose but I wouldn't go as far to say that on paper we should be confident.

Hmmmm I dunno - it’s their last home game of the domestic season & they’ve reached the playoffs - they might wanna finish in style

Keith Stroud refereeing the Swansea v WBA match.

I don’t rate him but for whatever reason he’s helped us out of late.

C’mon Stroud. Send off a few Baggies and give the Swans a few pens.

Trying to watch the Huddersfield vs Sheff Utd game but falling asleep. I think Huddersfield will get the point they need as the game is so boring, neither team is making any concerted effort to attack in a positive manner. I feel sorry for all the fans there. At least I can walk away from the TV to make a strong coffee

Predicting now : 0-0 and 'Uddersfield to stay up.

Reckon I’ll put a fiver on 0-0 in our game. 11/1, seems worth it. Although, I think people would smell a rat if neither Akpom or Gyokeres scored.

That's what BBC, Sky and other outlets are saying. I'm going on them as I don't trust my own maths.

They're on 47 points to Reading's 44. They only need a point. If they lose they set up a showdown with Reading next Monday with the winner staying up.

Two Yorkshire clubs, one already promoted and the other managed by a fan of theirs a draw written all over it

Yup. A draw and Huddersfield are down

A defeat for Huddersfield would mean Reading just have to win at Huddersfield on Monday, as the GD is just 2. Both on -2, so a defeat tonight would mean Huddersfield at least going down to -1 and then if Reading win, that would have them on at least -1 and Huddersfield's GD would be at least -2. Basically it's a 2 goal turnaround

Huddersfield need a point tonight, or a point on Monday

When was the last time all relegations were sorted before the final day?

Still feels strange not paying much attention to it down there.
