    Just spent 20 mins reading a couple of their forums. Deary me, that's a club in total free fall. Very few of them think they will stop up and there seems to be a massive rift between the fans and players, with many saying they are a disgraceful in terms of effort.

    A massive game for them next week at home to Derby as they have Wednesday (H) and Watford (A) to come afterwards.

    I've seen nothing today to change my mind that they are sailing down a river of ****. I'll be amazed if they stay up now, and really hope they go down - I've actually come to the conclusion that if it came to a choice of them or Wednesday, I'd take them to drop over Wednesday. They just so deserve it, it must be one of the worst run clubs in the country.

    I'd pick Blackburn to go down over the dee dars too. Bristol City, Blackburn and one other, just not sure who yet.

    Swap Wolves for Posh and i'd take it. We'd keep the derbies, Posh staying up with be a success story on their budget and with how far adrift they were before they even got a point. A couple of debt ridden recent premiership sides in the third tier would be a lovely reality check for them.

    I quite like the way they play and I enjoy going to their ground so I hope they stay up. Also they are a small club like us so I think I'd prefer to see Wolves go down instead.

    if i'm really honest i'm not bothered who it is so long as it isn't us..I can see where you are coming from with the small club bit with posh,so yeah,why not wolves.Them and Blackburn with their parachute payments and overspending in league 1 wont cause me any headaches.

    Wolves still not safe - few injuries which could cost them

    It's a myth that Sir Alex sends them alot of players. If anything we are the United feeder club of the championship.

    I think bottom 3 wil be Bristol, Blackburn, Huddersfield. Looking at the bottom, who do you think can get to 55 points? Possibly you can keep Wolves in there as well.

    Don't think Wolves will be far away.
