It's no bloody mini league, it's a big league, and we have been shit for 40 odd games, not just three.

QPR and Preston could also get relegated

If some teams go into administration before the end of the season we could be saved.

Everything seems a bit better when you accentuate the positives.

The fact that 'other clubs going into admin' is the only positive that you can find to accentuate is a real pointer to the desperate nature of our position.

QPR and Preston could go down, but realistically they won't. All of the other 7 teams could quite realistically go do.

What nonsense - of course they could

 

[City Fan]

I challenge anyone to use the BBC predictor to try to make it so that QPR go down - I haven't tried it but I dont think its possible for them to go down if you look at the fixtures.

I've just done it, it is possible for QPR to go down.

 

[City Fan]

Ok I've had a go and managed to get QPR in 22nd on goal difference - it might be mathematically possible, but if it happens I will eat my hat.

 

[Mike - True Blue Tinter]

It is probably also mathematically possible for QPR and Preston to reach a play-off spot, but that is not likely either. In fact Burnley, QPR and Preston are probably the only 3 teams in the league that are not chasing promotion or trying to avoid relegation!

No it's not.

Thanks Joe

QPR lose all their games.

City and Sheffield Wednesday draw with each other but win their other two games.

Norwich to take a point off West Brom, as well as beating QPR (as above)

Blackpool beat Plymouth and Watford

Barnsley to beat Charlton and Cardiff

Southampton win any two of their remaining games

Coventry to get 7 points from their remaining games or to win two of them with high scores

Preston to win any of their games or to draw all three.


QPR relegated

I'm pretty sure it won't be necessary to eat your hat - but a few mintes ago, you were saying that it is not mathematically possible.

No I didn't.
