    FIXTURES

    Huddersfield 54pts -22GD 48GS
    A - Bristol c
    H - Barnsley

    Blackburn 53pts -8GD 51GS
    A - Millwall
    H- Palace
    A- Birmingham

    Peterborough 51 -9GD 63GS
    H - Owls
    A - Palace

    Wolves 51pts -11GD 54GS
    H - Burnley
    A - Brighton

    Barnsley 51pts -16GD 50GS
    H - hull
    A - Huddersfield

    Ideal scenario wolves, Peterborough & Blackburn fail to pick up a win between them before the end of the season.
    Leicester beat watford friday to secure promotion for hull. Hull drop in form continues into next weekend and Huddersfield are safe and rest key players on final day.

    Huddersfield won't be resting anybody. Freak scenario for me, both of us just needing a point on last day. 90 minutes passing the ball to each other, neither team prepared to push for a winner :)

    Millwall have eyes on Wembley. Pathetic against Huddersfield. Burnley nothing to play for. Wendy's let Peterboro in. We have the worst run in. We play better against top teams, and with Ethu and Delap in we may be able to get back to our 3-5-2. The way I see it and I stated it on here, 1pointNotts. We get 3against Hull, they are as nervous as hell, and 1against Huddersfield . We are on track with yesterday's result. That gives us 55 points . Say we only draw against Hull and Huddersfield that puts us on 53 points, who needs to lose both games left. That point yesterday was massive. Could be the Charlton **** up and that late Derby goal has done us. I still think we will do it . If we beat Hull our lads will go into Huddersfield full on and we also will have Dawson back. Tighten your seat belts lads , we have lift off!!!!!!!!!

    The first 26 games have done us. I personally won't hold a single result under Flicker accountable, if we miss the cut. It's been a colossal effort to take it to the last game.

    Ideally we need to at least match Huddersfield's result on Saturday so that with a win we can finish above them. Then beating them and finishing above them should almost certainly ensure safety since I can't see Peterborough and Wolves both picking up more than 3 points what with their difficult away games.

    2 games and two draws or two games and 0-1 points for two of other three on 51 very feasible, and mean only one win would be enough.

    Don't want it to be like last time went down and lose penultimate game at home then win a meaningless final game

    It's crackers. 1 point could keep us up and 6 points could send us down

    Although the way robins left us he may well just instruct them to up their game to send us down. Karmas a bitch so to speak....

    Hull in poor form having lost to Wolves and drawn against Bristol. Hull are beatable, and will have promotion to prem confirmed If Leicester beat Watford on Friday.

    Leicester finding form at the right time and need results to fight to secure playoff position.

    Burnley and the owls both could do us a favour and both need a result to secure their own survival.
    Against our nearest rivals next sat wolves and Peterborough respectively. And in the final game
    Wolves face in form Brighton away and Peterborough face promotion chasing palace away.

    No easy games. No one has an easy run in. Our fixtures are no harder or easier than others and their are no certainties.

    My point being that opposition in both games may have nothing to play for, both relieved after confirming season goal i.e. hull promotion if Leicester beat Watford and Huddersfield survival if they get any kind of result against Bristol away.

    To add to that we have players coming back. Etuhu, delap and Edwards possible for hull and Dawson to return for huds game!

    Come on you reds!
