Mid Sussex Royal Hardly a difficult conclusion to come to - the usual bench marks have always been a point a game just about keeps you up and 2 points a game gets you up.
The best outcome for us in the Barnsley Vs Bolton game on Sat is a home win, with Bolton then playing Wolves next game that would mean a win on Saturday and we will just about be there.
In fact I think a Barnsley win could just about do for Bolton given the Wolves game following this, their dreadful away form, and then having lost 5 on the spin, 2 against big relegation rivals (sorry Parky).

The ReverendwindermereROYALpaultheroyal Won’t want Bolton vs Barnsley being a draw. Barnsley win would be ideal, beat Sunderland and that will probably be us safe for what has been a shocking season but least it’s still alive!
I dont get the logic there. Barnsley have a game in hand against Forest who are in freefall. a Bolton win, or a draw coupled with a win for us Saturday would give us a 7/8 point gap over Barsnsley with 3 (4 for them)0 to play.
Show your workings please Paul
Would think both teams dropping 2 points > either grabbing 3
I want Barnsley to win though, and Bolton to pick up points in subsequent games. It'd be bloody marvellous to see Sunderland and Birmingham in the 3rd tier at the same time.

Bolton lose they are stuck on 39. Not a cat in hells chance they will beat wolves. So most points they can get is 45. One win from 4 will then see us safe because of goal difference. Of course Sunderland could go on a run, but that won’t happen.
Hope that’s clear ie my logic.

There's every chance that Wolves will be promoted this weekend.
After that all bets are off relating to them beating ANYONE, let alone a team that will be battling for points

Ascotexgunner Not sure who the pundit was who was talking to Alan Brazil on Talksport this morning, but he thought we were the likely ones to go down having been to one of our games recently. Described us as "Utterly Awful"..... Really can't argue with that bit. I really am getting a bad feeling about Saturday, I know the gaps 5 points but if we lose I just think the damage maybe irreparable. This is definetley our biggest game this season so far.

yep, I'm worried by this too. Wolves will be promoted if either Cardiff or Fulham do not win on Saturday. Then, on Sunday, they play Brum. With a hangover. The title might also be theirs if neither team win.

Thanks for picking out the typo in that post Lux, appreciate it.

actually, that is not quite true, they can only be promoted on Saturday if Fulham fail to win. Cardiff can lose and still catch Wolves on GD.
