Rotherham will need to win next week

[BLUEAWAY]

And hope that Derby lose.
But would like to see Wednesday beat Derby and us beat Rotherham to see Derby go down.

If Rotherham win at Luton this week, it’s possible

If Rotherham beat Luton on Tuesday they go above Derby on gd.

If Derby lose they are relegated regardless.

Luton on a roll though so Rotherham wont have it easy in their penultimate match. That said, I think I'd prefer Derby to go down...snowgate avenged.

Also payback Rooney for kicking Jordon Mutch and getting away with it

It does. It could be that Derby & Rotherham go into next weekend on 33 points, Wednesday start the day on 30 but beat Derby, we beat Rotherham so with the three of them on 33 Rotherham stay up on goal difference. Tuesday is crucial for Rotherham.

wrong on so many levels :hehe:

Firstly Derby currently have 43, The other three teams have 40.

Rotherham can lose on Tuesday and still stay up on the final day by beating us (you seem to assume we are going to win, have you learned nothing in 50 years)

At the moment it's in Rotherham's hands. Win at Luton and at us and they stay up.

Win one of those games (either one) and they stay up if Sheff Weds win at Derby.

I may be wrong but don't City have form for giving struggling teams a hand-up at the end of the season?

I wouldn’t just include the end of the season. It’s all flaming year.

A very big if. Rotherham are shit.

Their xg shows they should have conceded a lot less and scored a lot more.

They should already be safe theyve been let down by a load of 1-0 losses

I did wonder whether Luton’s owner would be leaning on the manager for the next game to play the reserves - sending down Derby and Wednesday would boost Luton’s survival hopes next season. Very much Doubt it but you never know stranger things have happened

I thought they played as well as anyone against us during McCarthy's great start with us and they were unlucky to lose, but, if we agree Rotherham are shit, what does that make Derby who have thrown tens of millions at becoming a Premier League club while sailing very, very close to the wind in terms of obeying the rules in the process?

Derby deserve to go down, but even if they and Wednesday finish in the the bottom three, if I were a Rotherham and Huddersfield fan, I'd still be very concerned about the outcome of the inevitable appeals to the EFL by dodgy Derby and shady Sheffield.
