Forest now at 46 points. We can only catch them mathematically. They are now safe.

Millwall and Bristol are catchable.

Bristol have Birmingham and West Ham followed by Barnsley at Home and Burnley away. Think they have a win in them at home to Barnsley. 46 points. Just a point elsewhere at we are doomed!

City have Millwall and Donny at home and Burnley and Southampton away.
I see probable 6 points in two home games. Nothing at Southampton. We need therefore more than a point at Burnley. So basically 3 wins. Likely? NO

Millwall. This looks tricky. They have a Leicester side late surge for a play off place, away at US, home to Pompey, away at Ipswich and home to play off chasing Blackpool. Maybe just maybe there is a banana skin awaiting to trip them up? But truthfully I think they will do enough to be ahead of us at the reckoning.

To sum up we need to win 3 out of 4 and a draw at the Saints to stay up and still rely on other results.

Strange things happen in pressure situations as history shows but it looks grim.

Goal difference is also crucial. If we match their point tally then we will be safe.

Think the simple facts are that we need the following to happen on Saturday.

City win

Bristol loss.

We could feasibly draw as long as Bristol lose their next two games.

4 points from the next two games could move us back out the bottom 3. Hopefully Brum and West Ham can beat Bristol

Disagree. A point at Burnley is OK if Bristol lose at Brum. CCFC 40 BCFC 43
If they lose to West Ham we must beat Millwall. That would put us above Bristol on goal difference with 2 to play. 43 each
CCFC have Donny [home] Saints [away]
BCFC have Barnsley [home] Burnley [away]
Straight fight with us having better goal difference...
All still to play for.

I think win the 2 home games and a draw away and we might just be able to stay up. Can't see us getting anything at Southampton (its likely they will still need a win for the title), therefore if we lose at Burnley we are down imo.

I think we need to think no more than two games hence.

Bristol play Birmingham away and then West Ham.

We play Burnley and Milwall.

If we get 4 points from those two games, I reckon we'll be back above them, with the spectre of Doncaster at home looming....

I think it's unlikely that Bristol city will get less than 4 pts. So we need 8 pts. Anyway you guys carry on I ve embraced relegation and a new found hatred of our loathsome neighbors mk dons

Three to four weeks ago, I'd accepted relegation. Then the bloody upturn in form has me all at sea...
