can we start being picky yet and deciding who we want to get relegated?

I'd quite like a Derby loss and Rotherham win.

On the assumption were safe already of course!

If Derby win and Rotherham lose, that's it I think. All over.

Rotherham will be 7 points behind and just 5 games left.

As long as we pick up 1 or 3 at Stoke I’m not too fussed about the other results. Should we lose then clearly need Rotherham and derby to do same.

Contrary to everyone else, I'd actually like a Preston-Derby draw. I would like to see Derby down and to give Rotherham something to chase, keeping the Rams close may help. Besides, of the two teams, we do better against Rotherham ;) We may not be mathematically safe but we're almost. And Preston are only 1 point and a place above us. So we should be looking at next season and the prize fund at the end of season.

A Sheff Wed result against Blackburn would put us above Rovers in 15th if we win tomorrow night too. Can't see it but it's a nice thought.

Does anyone know what the prize breakdown is for places in the Championship this season ? Googling it only gives me Leeds in 19/20 or the Champions League figures.

No prize money everyone gets the same tv money irrespective of final position.

If sheff wed don’t win every game their results don’t bother us

Derby defeat leaves them 5 behind with 3 to play

No, we can't be picky.
I'm one of those pessimists.
I'll discuss other clubs when we're mathematically safe.
Until then, all sides below us need to have results that benefit us.

Wouldn’t say it was pessimistic to say that. Still possible. Unlikely but possible. Isn’t it only Rotherham who can catch us now? Unless I’ve forgotten how to count (again!)

Well, that's a blow to my logic. And in a way, it devalues the end of the season if 8th to 16th have nothing to push for.

As we are going to relying on some loanees again next season, I reckon a 'bigger' club is more likely to loan a player to play in a comfortable mid-table team than a club who's just avoided relegation, hence is more likely to be suffering again next season.

Perfect result for us Derby losing .

But my word they are in big big trouble and need to hope Rotherham completely capitulate

Derby as it stands need 2 wins from their last 3 games to go above us

Without us getting any points at all
