It’s going to the final day
Posted on April 28, 2008
West Brom could have really helped us tonight beating Southampton, this would have all but secured our place in the league with a superior goal difference over the Saints and three points ahead one game to go. But the Saints picked up a point tonight which was all WBA needed to gain promotion. So it now goes down to the last day of the season,
The table looks like this

With the final fixtures
Blackpool v Watford,
Charlton v Coventry,
Sheff Wed v Norwich,
Southampton v Sheff Utd,
Stoke v Leicester,
So the deal is,
- If we avoid defeat we are safe no matter what happens up and down the country.
- To go down we need to lose and it would require Southampton to beat Sheffield United, Leicester beat Stoke, Sheffield Wednesday win or draw against Norwich (a draw only if we lose by two goals or more to get a better goal differance) and Coventry win or draw against Charlton or they lose and we lose by 5 goals.
So we need 4 games to go against us and lose at home to Watford. Stranger things have happened….
