So you're saying there's a chance? |  | |  |

Ridiculous complacency.
I'll have you know I've done the relegation calculator and not only can we go down, we can finish bottom by two clear points. And probably will. |  |

Every Championship team can still go either up or down.
Are we still technically both of these?

No, barring a points deduction, we can't go up. Even if we win our final 4 matches we reach 62 points. Coventry City, who currently occupy 6th, have 63 points.
There's only 3 teams that as things stand mathematically can still go up or down - Sheffield Wednesday, Swansea and Norwich.
Headline is a little misleading. I think what the Beeb mean to say is that there isn't a single team in the division with nothing to play for. [Post edited 16 Apr 20:18]

I agree, we can still finish bottom by two points. But it would take an extraordinary set of results.
Better make sure that we beat Preston. |  |

Ah, but you have failed to consider the likely if not certain points deduction for fielding a player with third party ownership. | |

I can't believe that between Bristol City and Preston, we are the clubs with the current longest spell in the Championship (almost 10 years). How we have managed not to get relegated in that time with the losing record we have is a miracle! |  | | |

I can't tell if this is a joke or not but I am going to treat it as not a joke. I am probably the most pessimistic person on the planet but I can see we're virtually safe.
We're 8 points clear of the relegation zone.
For us to finish bottom it would require Cardiff to win 3 of their remaining 4 games and both Luton and Plymouth to win all 4 remaining games. That just isn't going to happen.
The only possible scenario is for us to finish 3rd bottom, which as mentioned would require Cardiff to win 3 of their 4 remaining games.
Cardiff form from last 6 matches...won 1, drew 3, lost 2.
Cardiff are away at 3rd place Sheffield United tomorrow. I mean yeah it's possible for Cardiff to win 3 more games, us to not gain any more points this season and the other 6 teams below win more points than us but there's a reason we've been given less than 0.1% chance of getting relegated. | | | |

I've just played around with a table predictor and have managed to make it contrived so we get relegated as bottom.
But yeah ain't happening in reality. |  | | |

Reminds me of the time I played Gaelic football in my youth. I was small, slow and had teflon hands. On the rare occasions - due to lack of numbers - that the coach was forced to play me, he used to roar in exasperation, 'mark SOMEBODY, you are marking NOBODY'. I always felt it was an easy mistake to make, as their names sounded so similar. [Post edited 17 Apr 9:03]

Luton and Cardiff losing last week pretty much sealed it for us.
I always think in this league you are a good week away from top half and a bad one from bottom 6 so the only way we get dragged back in is if we lose both games this weekend and the gap gets cut to 3/4 points but seeing the fixtures it would take some set of results for that to happen
I just hope we push on and try and beat last years points total now which is very achievable |  | | |

To be fair, Dave, if you are no longer worried then we are definitely safe :-) |  | | |

You can still be pessimistic - but its a nice feeling now.
For the record, we are mathematically safe tomorrow if we win and Luton win. Or we win and Cardiff fail to. All over. [Post edited 17 Apr 12:12]

a bit like last year, the bottom clubs have all hit a bit of form.
the bottom 5 have only lost 8 of their last 30 games (6 each) with only 3 losing 2 out of 6.
they have also won 11 of those 30, so any other time of the season those stats would look ok. thankfully Lootown, Plymuff and Derby Fookin VVankers were so far off the pace prior to that we should be ok as we are now 2 defeats in 6.....
gotta love the Championship for its level of mental every year
after the Bardiff draw i wasn't as optimistic, but the subsequent results should have sorted us out [Post edited 17 Apr 12:26]

I’m also very pessimistic but also look at lot at the data, there is almost no chance we go down (less than 1% chance) |  | | |

I can't believe that between Bristol City and Preston, we are the clubs with the current longest spell in the Championship (almost 10 years). How we have managed not to get relegated in that time with the losing record we have is a miracle! |
Next season will be our 11th consecutive Championship season. I don’t think any of the current teams has been in the Championship longer. I wonder what the longest stint in the second tier has been - and was said stint ended by a promotion or a relegation. |  | | |

I can't answer that Danny, but is it a co-incidence that Bristol City, Preston & ourselves all entered The Championship in 2015 & we're the three clubs stuck in the middle?
I'm fairly sure that Norwich spent between 1960 & 1972 in the second tier before winning Division 2 & being promoted with Birmingham (Millwall finishing 3rd & Rangers 4th). | | | |

Yes it bloody 46 Ground hog days…would be nice if we could have some excitement for example one season get close to the playoff positions or a bit of a cup run to break the 16th position year on year! | | | |
