    whilst the obvious is about what we do, looks like a lot of the teams at the bottom have to play each other so if they all take points off each other it might be difficult.

    That will inevitably drop the target for safety because points will go begging in those fixtures.

    Danger is though if they take points off each other can make it harder.
    Take Huddersfield, who have Charlton, Wigan and Luton to play , do we want Huddersfield to draw some or lose all

    The draw is the best result every time because 1 point is lost.

    Yeah but then we have to win one extra to just make them 3 draws up, whereas if they lose all 3 we only have to win 2 to catch them.
    Catch 22 cos it means Luton and Wigan gain points, but we don’t need to catch either of them (OK technically Wigan we do) to avoid relegation.

    Perhaps Charlton and Luton to win and draw with Wigan or swap Luton to a draw.

    Agree with what you said on Tykes TV about fixtures.

    Be hoping to leave their old ground on a high, unless they'd prefer to do it in the playoffs.
