If stoke lose to derby then it's only hull, Preston and Luton who need to win(or draw in some cases) to send them down. Not as unlikely set of results as some have said on here.

Pompey good at home though so hull prob will go down but im hoping it's Luton

I have mixed feelings about Cardiff’s demise. On the one hand I’m happy as I can be smug around the many local people who have taken the piss out of me over the years - I get bombarded with messages when we’ve lost to them, which feels like every season - and on the other hand I’m losing the localist of away fixtures.

Hmmmmm….goodbye Cardiff.

Neither do their fans. I think their owner, Vincent Tan, also owns a Dutch club (or somewhere) and they were relegated too.
He’s not well liked.

I remember a Cardiff fan angrily moaning at me that that they’d changed from playing in blue to red. He said he’d stopped going to games because of this.
I was like “yeah, well if it makes you feel any better we’re shit, got no money and are being forced to play our home games in Northampton which is a 45 minute drive from Cov”.
He just looked at me and said “yeah but we’re having to play in Red! We’re the bluebirds”!

That man was/is an arse.

They weren’t complaining when Tan’s money got them into the top flight and let them nab both Gunnarsson and Ben Turner off us.

Yep, I agree. They’ve also got a top six wage bill.

Don’t like Farke at all. Always get the vibe from him that he shouldn’t be managing at this level.

Bellingham in on name only but fair enough otherwise. The 2 Norwich lads done enough for a move away if they are lucky.

I find these worse than Wrexham. At least that is interesting if you're into that sort of thing. Blues are a Championship sized club owned by a yank hedge fund with a bunch of dribblers for fans.
What's the story they are trying create there?

Given Hamers inclusion it might be calories consumed.

In all seriousness though, I'm not over convinced by Burrows and wouldn't swap Hamer for Rudi.

I’d say they should fold and merge with Villa but the Villa fans don’t deserve that

They should just be forced to fold as its not fair to make other teams travel to that shit hole full of absolute mutants.

Bellingham and Burrows both big shocks. Shouldn’t be anywhere near it.

I know for the PFA team, players vote themselves, and the vote is done pretty early which can throw in some different players from what might have transpired at the end of a season.
