Hope everyone is well, safe and sound. Weird old time here in the UK but hopefully some light now at the end of the tunnel.
Difficult game to watch yesterday but we're grinding out results now and have one foot in the Premier League. Despite our lofty position I couldn't sleep last night, that little nagging doubt at the back of my mind...., will we do a Leeds United again!
I'm hoping Huddersfield do us a favour tonight, make a change for dear old LUFC to get the rub of the green don't you think?
Whatever the result tonight I think the Chairman, his management team and Bielsa deserve huge credit for their continued efforts. The team has performed exceptionally well without the best fans in the country roaring them on from the stands.
Fingers crossed for later, Saturday and of course for Sunday!
Take care one and all, there's a huge party we all need to be ready for.....
MOT
Good morning one & all.

I hope you're all celebrating tonight as it will mean we are safe, but I reckon you'll have all turned the TV off and kicked the cat before the half time whistle goes.

Never actually thought of it that way.

Champers, given your comment, do you think you will have enough points to stay up? It’s very tight, Charlton vs Wigan tomorrow is a big game as is Hull vs Luton.

Rest everyone against Derby if other results go against us, see if we can grab a point and have a cup final v Charlton
Can’t see that happening but I would def play Roberts 90 mins, Poveda, Shackleton, Douglas and Berardi
Some of our guys need a rest badly

I think we might have based on how I see the games playing out....
Luton will scrape safety with a victory against Hull and at least a point at nothing-to-play-for Blackburn. I think Wigan will win at the Valley as their impending points deduction means they need to, and you'll beat Charlton on the final day, leaving them below us. Hull couldn't beat an egg so I have it as Barnsley, Hull and Charlton to go down.
However, if we did go down, we would have thoroughly deserved it. I cannot stand watching us at the moment.

What's happened to Hudds & Hull since Prem is
yet another set of cautionary tales that remind me
of our fate 16 years ago. Prem has a brutal effect
on teams that drop. Unless you're a yo-yo club
like Norwich.

Champers, I hope they surprise you tonight it would obviously help us but you’ve always been a decent poster on here so I hope that Hudds stay up. I agree that Barnsley and Hull are down and think Wigan will survive too. Charlton will need to come to ER probably needing a win, which, hopefully if we needed to win would play into our hands, although I couldn’t face another game like yesterday’s.
