Draw , Hull go to 46 , Wigan effectively go to 43. we stay bottom of the league which is where we will finish. if anyone has to win id have Wigan and hope they dont get any more points,
Almost irrelevant unfortunately. Lose at Elland Road (expected) and I think that's curtains, if it isn't already.
21-21. This is a rugby league fixture, isn't it? Sadly, I don't think we have the ability to get the points we'd need even if every other result goes in our favour. The other teams still have games amongst themselves too eg Hull v Luton and Charlton v Wigan on Saturday. Plus there's Charlton v Bye (Brimingham) tonight.
Its really irrelevant at this stage now as we failed to win any of the last 3 vital games. We are about to face 3 of the current top 6 two of those games away. One of which is a few points away from clinching the title and the other has won every game since the league restarted. There is no way we will survive now, would be happy if I am proved wrong but cannot see an escape happening.
Agree with this, had we beaten one of Wigan, Luton or Stoke I'd have been glued to the games tonight but not now, we're done.
As we are not yet mathematically relegated, I’d like to know what result would be best from the Wigan v Hull game. I didn’t get many sensible answers.
At this stage I'd go for a Wigan win, meaning that we'd still only be 1 win from safety (assuming the points deduction stands). Even if Wigan are somehow allowed to wiggle out of their points deduction then it would still be better for us that they'd won this. At a push I'd take a draw.
On the relegation market Wigan are second favourites on betfair at 1.78 so punters clearly think they will be deducted 12 points and are effectively on 42 points now . Hull are on 45 with only 1 win since New Years Day a draw would be my preference with a Wigan win the second preferred outcome. Big game at Luton as well tonight and yes we are still bottom but not beyond redemption even though 49 points may not be enough.
It was very disappointing not only the performances from last three games but the fact our direct rivals took five point from these games to our two plus a big dent on our GD . Even two more points would have had us still in with a great shout but now we just can’t afford any slip ups or margin for error in our last three very difficult games imo . A couple more points would have allowed either some of our rivals picking up points or most likely from these fixtures us understandably dropping some points . We have no room to manoeuvre and even if we could put some sort of performances last three the quality of our opponents imo won’t allow us to combat all three . One miraculous result and a stubborn dug out one ain’t gonna save us and three wins with the season long form were on are very very long odds .
Disagree sorry. Ignoring the fact any of this is unlikely a Wigan win (preferably a big one) is the only realistic way 46 points could keep us up. Any other result would mean we need 47. This is assuming hull and Luton draw with each other, Hull lose their 3rd game and Luton lose their other two.
First three games we turned water into wine, next three we managed to turn it back again . I think we’ll end up with water imo after the next three regardless of other results .
