FT: Barnsley 1 - 0 Forest
Currently 0 - 0
A Barnsley win will keep them in the hunt for survival. And defeat for Forest would mean that both Cardiff and Swansea could make the play offs (but would need a 3 - 0 Swansea win on Wednesday and a 3 - 0 Forest defeat).
A draw sees Barnsley down and Forest confirmed in the play offs
Re: FT: Barnsley 1 - 0 Forest
Barnsley, Charlton and Hull all away to sides in the top six in their final matches, while Luton are home to Blackburn and Wigan face fourth placed Fulham at home.
Forest are at home to a Stoke side with nothing to play for, but they certainly didn't look like a team already on holiday when beating Brentford yesterday.

Well done Barnsley BTW. What a crazy division is the Championship eh?

It wouldn't be in the semis. It would be the final....

Perhaps we could have an outside bar somewhere where both sets of fans could mingle in a friendly manner.

We could buy each other cocktails whilst watching the game, then at the end, the losing fans could congratulate the victors, and form a guard of honour as they triumphantly vacate the boozer!!

Hull would need a three goal swing so would have to beat us by two if Luton only lose by one.
Barnsley could also draw and Hull could still make it IF Luton lose.
But the bigger IF is Wigan points deduction, Hull could beat us and the other results go their way but they would not know they are safe until the 12 points gets confirmed.
I think....

Hull do not need a goal swing with Luton. Hull already have a better GD than Luton. Hull -27, Luton are -29.
