We can only go down on goal difference

[coneysboots]

If Sheff Wed win their next two games, Palace win their next one and we lose our next two, going into the last game Sheff Wed will have the same points as us, with a worse goal difference, and Palace will be one point behind with a better goal difference. Sheff Wed, and Palace are playing each other in the last game. If we lose to Newcastle, and Sheff Wed win, we finish above Palace. If Palace win, we should finish above Sheff Wed on goal difference. If it's a draw Sheff Wed finish one point ahead of us, and Palace finish above us on goal difference. If Palace hadn't got their late equaliser then we should have been OK, as the worst case scenario would see us finishing on the same points as Sheff Wed, with probably a better goal difference.
So we need one point, or Palace or Sheff Wed not to win all their games, and we will be safe.
I think that's right.

You lost me at 2 + 2 equals 4

Don't forget to take away the number you first thought of, and add your age.

W do like making life hard for ourselves.

[acricketer]

We will get one more point from our remaining games. 2 of them are against teams with nothing to play for.

Easy to say, but who is gonna put the ball in the back of the net, we create lots of chances yet just can't seem to put them away, oh well there's always 0-0 draws to hope for, it still gives us points.

[Spencer]

Hopefully be all over by 3...once Wednesday have failed to win. A draw or a defeat makes us safe...mathematically.

[qblockpete]

Job was done at Palace, that was the most important game of the year.

Now on Tuesday we can help Watford ot go down.

[ollyhoops]

[W6hoops]
