It's tricky for Rotherham, they will need Wednesday to have something to play for Saturday, but if they win tomorrow it's relegation for Wednesday and almost certainly 3 points for Derby Saturday, stick or bust.
I feel this post needs some Monday's, Tuesday's, Thursday's and Friday's for balance.
I like apostrophe'sFor God's sake man sort the apostrophes out!
I've got the following in relegation and safety zones.
Glicko-2 reckons Wednesday will stay up and Rotherham will finish bottom currently.
21. Sheffield Wednesday (1368)
---
22. Derby (1348)
23. Wycombe (1328)
24. Rotherham (1321)
Does your Glicko factor in the points deduction?
I used to get my little brother to say “come on city you can win” before going to games and I get my son to say it now. And to be fair to him, since he’s been able to say it we’ve been promoted twice and won a cup.
Yet people moan about apostrophes!Wednesday players not payed [paid] again in April, and there [their] owner has threatened them if they embarrass him by being relegated he will half [halve] they're [their] wages. Not much of an incentive to get a result . But I don't think Rotherham will get another point, and Derby will bottle it on the last day.
Very very difficult to call this one. The table shows that Wednesday are on better recent form than Derby, but Rotherham' form goal difference is better than both of them. My guess is that Wednesday will beat Derby, but Rotherham will win one of their games to relegate Wednesday and Derby on goal difference.
This is true I am just guessing that Rotherham will pull a win out of the bag. To be honest it's anybodys guess what will really happen.Derby are bottom of the form table, Rotherham are second from bottom of the form table.
I agree.Really want Sheffield Wednesday to survive mainly as it's a good away day
Think Derby will just about manage it though
If Rotherham get a win, then Derby will need to get something on saturday or Rotherham are safe
A Rotherham win would also put Sheff wed out of it
I think they will manage at least 1 win from the 2 games - and expect that to come tonight
Will then depend if Wednesday;s hearts are in it on Saturday
I just logged on to start a thread saying just that.I take back what I said then.
For the most exciting finish, a draw tomorrow would be the best result.

Actually, looking at it, it doesn't. Not quite. It would need a big turnaround at the weekend, but it is possible for Wednesday to still stay up.My guess is that Sheffield Wednesday will beat Derby, so Wednesday will finish ahead of derby. Just depends whether rotherham will get the three points required then to finish ahead of both of them.
Difficult position for rotherham cause they want wednesday to to put up a fight against derby and win/draw but a rotherham win against luton effectively relegates Wednesday.
in simple terms
If I recall for the purposes of SCMP all the relegated teams players are designated average league salary, or players above the average don’t count towards the cap. Something like that anywayI want Derby & Sheff Wed to go down so that they get a real penalty for consistently overspending in the championship and it will be funny watching them try to fit in with L1 SCMP rules next season. Unfortunately I think it will be Rotherham & Sheff Wed that go down.
true, but if their better players want away, they can only be replaced with players within the salary capIf I recall for the purposes of SCMP all the relegated teams players are designated average league salary, or players above the average don’t count towards the cap. Something like that anyway
They could just both do a Hull and keep their better players. They’ll bounce straight back uptrue, but if their better players want away, they can only be replaced with players within the salary cap

According to the rules any wages paid to players signed before september 2020 and on 3 year deals are exempt from SCMP. They have such a high turnover of players I doubt either club has any in this category.If I recall for the purposes of SCMP all the relegated teams players are designated average league salary, or players above the average don’t count towards the cap.

Wasn't the salary cap withdrawn after the PFA complained?According to the rules any wages paid to players signed before september 2020 and on 3 year deals are exempt from SCMP. They have such a high turnover of players I doubt either club has any in this category.
