Bristol City v Birmingham

Brentford v Blackburn

Forest v Ipswich

Only Birmingham have staying up 100% in their own hands, win and they stay up. Or a draw will be enough if one of Forest or Blackburn don't win.

Forest will stay up if they equal or better the Blackburn result, or win and Birmingham don't.

Blackburn need to better Forest result, or win and Birmingham don't.

Personally think Blackburn are going down.

Hmm, what do all three clubs have in common?

They've all been totally shafted by clueless, avaricious absentee overseas owners.

Forest, on their day, are the best footballing side out of that lot. So I'd like them to stay up. Blackburn I'm ambivalent about. Birmingham in a perverse way I'd almost like to see go down, just to underline utterly the stupidity of sacking Rowett for Zola.

But ultimately I'd never wish relegation on any club, Palace and Pompey aside, so I'll vote "Couldn't give a toss, WE'RE GOING UP AS 'KIN CHAMPIONS"

Who would I prefer to go down? Brum, for this reason.

Who do I think will? Blackburn.

I have high hopes for Bristol next season and i really don't wan't Birmingham to go down....Two clubs who have had similar seasons yet gone about things in complete opposite ways in a sense.

Quite odd that a side where they are have beaten 5 of the top 7 at home this season: Us, Toon, Reading, Huddersfield & Leeds

Blackburn go down they could be DONE, can't see the VENKYS putting the cash in to keep them going in League 1

They need not look too far for inspiration-Bolton prove what can be done ....thought they had a worse situation than Blackburn are now in,financially.

He was very shabbily treated by Derby and he turned down Forest earlier this season didn't he? I think he may very cautious in where he goes next. Unlikely to be a club run by meddling directors.

Want Blackburn to stay up as Greer and Bennett are there.

Not fussed about the other 2, pure hilarity for either. Forest with the stature of their club being in League 1 and Birmingham with going from playoffs to relegation fodder by making 1 managerial change

The possibility of Burton vs. Fleetwood in the Championship is mind-boggling!

Oh, and Birmingham to go down please, to rub their twattishness into Trillion Twats Asia's faces! Expect it will be Blackburn though.

Think he will have offers,like you say though with what's gone before he may well stay put for another season..wonder if he would be the type to consider a southern appointment at some time(not us as such) just wonder if he is an Midland/Northern type of person that will perhaps gravitate to those areas..

Forest.

They'd enjoy winning every week in the third division.

Forest. Because they have a player I'd like us to grab and a raid is more likely if they are in League One. Mr Brereton is the chap (for our U23s).

It's May the first, not April.
Click on the link.
25 players have arrived at Forest this season alone.

As said I genuinely didn't believe it myself, although '17 players arriving' is hardly note worthy.

A highly risky strategy, but maybe that wouldn't be such a bad thing? At least it would mean that any prospective new owner, might actually care about the club?
