    What happens with Hull is irrelevant to us. We have to win to have any chance of staying up. If we don't win we're relegated. Even if we win we may still be relegated depending on the results of Luton, Charlton and Wigan. But if we win, Hull can't catch us, so what they do has no baring on our season.

    Thing is in football you can get unlikely wins and seeing as they only need one now it woukdnt be a complete surprise if they got one.

    Their odds have been snowballing for a week now. I think their fate has been decided, and some sources have got wind of it. I think the reason it hasn't been announced yet is to protect the "integrity" of the remaining games.

    I would expect an announcement once the final whistle has gone on Wednesday

    Bang on. I think in a way it benefits us that there’s no dithering & thinking about how a draw might keep us up if other results go in our favour. We saw a team yesterday who only needed a point & Forest fans said they were way off their best.

    Just treat our game as a cup final, win it & hope the rest takes care of itself

    No idea. Some are saying anything between 12 and 18 points. Maximum was 21, so it's a just a waiting game

    Cheers, 18 points should do it :D
    I can just see that Scottish bloke off sky presenting relegation roulette with a ticking countdown clock, just after the games on Wednesday :D:D
