I get your point about league position and money earned... But imo at this stage in our position im more bothered about staying up asap first!

as icy said earlier;
Burnley have played two more games than us and have you seen their run in? I’d be quite happy with a draw if we can get a win as it will drag them back into the relegation fight with us and maybe Saints and potentially give us another candidate to go down if Cardiff get points in their remaining games.
I'm obviously on my own here but I'd prefer a Cardiff win tomorrow. It would keep Burnley in the mix and they have a horrendous run-in (and I always prefer two other teams to be fighting it out, one may produce the goods but very rarely do both deliver).
Yes, a Cardiff win would put more pressure on us but, as I see it, we have to win either the Bournemouth or Cardiff games anyway. If we win both, we're safe but 4 points should be enough.

There us absolutely no bad result for us in the Burnley-Cardiff game. It is win-win-win.
There is a very bad result for us in the Bournemouth game though - let's just hope that we get a long overdue home win against them.
We can then look how the other team results cookie has crumbled.

I don't agree, a Cardiff win keeps them close enough to us to let them think they have a chance of staying up ahead of playing us.

But of course in that case Burnley, with a worse GD than us, would really struggle to finish on over 36 points - giving us the home games v Bournemouth, Cardiff and Newcastle as the most likely opportunities to overhaul them.

Burnley & Brighton wins please.
Cardiff 8 points behind with 5 games to play.
We beat Cardiff Tuesday
Cardiff 11 points behind with 4 to play = we're safe (and yes I know, not mathematically before someone points that out)
It's got to the point of the season where I really couldn't give a chuff who goes down, as long as it ain't us. I'd prefer it to be Burnley, but can't see Cardiff catching them.

A big fat THIS! A real opportunity for us, two wins regardless of Cardiff's result will really go along way to securing survival. An absolutely huge few days coming up.

And then we get safety with a draw at Wolves ( the goal difference swing needed would be too much for Cardiff ).

This 100%.
That would be a disastrous day for Wnkr Warnock and great for us. Almost sealing Wnkr”s fate.
Shouldn’t you include Bournemouth, just to make sure?
