Permutations for survival?

Mon Apr 21, 2025 4:20 pm

Derby only 2 points from 2 games
Luton 2 points from 2 games at moment goal difference same as
luton so could come down to that ..
Hull lose both game
For this to happen city need minimum of 4 points preferably 6 and lot luck
Might be slight variation but this is easy scenario I think? :D
Derby hull play each other Saturday

Hull & derby play each other so if you want hull to lose both games, derby will have a min of 3, unfortunately we are down, today was a hammer blow

I think if we win two games (very unlikely) we still go down.

One point at home to Luton, Stoke, and Oxford we absolutely deserve to go down!

If Derby Luton get only 2 points both on 48 so two wins gives us 49
If hull lose both they have 48 we'll have 49

But to garauntee safety need 6 points as plymouth can beat us if they win both games under same scenario

That situation is impossible, Hull and Derby still have to play each other. So for Derby to have 2 points it means Hull will have at least 1, and for Hull to have 0 points Derby will have at least 3 points.

It's a case of different results giving different teams ahead of one and other.. hull derby game if either win they're safe whoever loses are the one we can catch providing Luton only get 2 points... . we win both games plymouth behind us on goal difference even if win their games

Forget everyone else we will not win a game until next season!!. Finished and deserved. The team have no leaders and the damage Riza has done can't not be undone. I actually hope we lose next week. Bring on the humiliation, then restart in the summer.
