Re: Supercomputer says NO!
Looking at it Derby playing Stoke on the last day may yet see us escape.

Only if we pick up a few points. Teams around us won't actually lose points.
Re: Supercomputer says NO!
All the prediction models show we must beat both Stoke and Oxford, if we don’t then either/both will finish above us. We need an absolute minimum of 47 but our goal difference is not good enough, so 48 would be stronger. 49 seems to be good enough to clinch safety but only if we beat both Stoke & Oxford.

I might be wrong but I think we only need to beat one of them and match their results to stay above them. I’d obviously much rather win both games as that would be a comfortable cushion for the final run in.
As it stands, we go above both if we beat them.

You never know, it’s happened the past few seasons…

That specific model has us beating both Stoke and Oxford to nil. Stupid computer, has it not being paying attention all season :hehe::facepalm:
Re: Supercomputer says NO!
That computer sees us getting a real dicking off somebody because our goal difference becomes 4 worse despite 7 points in 5 games

3-0 against Sheffield and 4-1 against Norwich according to their predicted results.
It predicts Stoke, Luton and Oxford all to lose on the last day keeping us up despite a 4-1 defeat to Norwich... that actually sounds like a realistic Cardiff City scenario, rely on other results.

The bookies still don’t fancy Derby!
I wonder what they see happening that I don’t.

On paper their fixtures look more straightforward than ours. Perhaps it's that they're playing teams around them, all hungry to avoid relegation as well? I'm not sure that makes things any easier tbh.

Same here. Their fixtures suggest that they’re in a stronger position than City, Stoke, Oxford, Luton & Plymouth. Derby should finish 19th.
