Im not sure what we want here, a Rotherham win and Brighton loss would see us 5 points from safety but would leave Wigan in big trouble, a draw or Wigan win could see us drop into the bottom 2 but would see Rotherham/Wigan not too far ahead of us.

I think we might get a draw at Wolves, but theres a few teams at the bottom playing each other over the next few weeks who could all pick up points and the gap might get too big if we are not careful.

I still don't think Wigan will finish in the bottom 3

It's Blackpool, Rotherham plus one other (still think it could be Millwall) that we need to finish above IMO

Definitely this. Would be very surprised if Wigan were anywhere near the bottom 3 come May.

The obvious is a draw for them and an away win for us.

I bet Wigan fans are saying that about us too...

Agree - a Wigan win is likely to be the longer-term better result for us, even though dropping second bottom will be demoralising in the short-term.

Millwall v Bolton is first up tonight. A Bolton win has to also be better for us overall.

They sacked their manager ....... and got an allegedly sexist, racist, homophobe because he has a proven track record.
It hasn't worked for them so far and I hope it doesn't..

This. I'd rather see a Wigan win.

its irrelevant. Looks like we are sticking with Sami, so we are going down no matter what results are elsewhere.

This will be an interesting game - Evans has apparently completely changed Rotherham's style of play. If Rotherham win, will be troubling for us
