I would look at the season not just today.

It is not match fixing, they are preparing for the playoffs.

I would also add i think its disgraceful when a footballer who gets paid thousands a week cant be arsed turning up just because they have nothing to play for like these villa players today

Villa truly shocking. No risk here. Game in bag.

Don't know why I bother defending you on here.

Hope you do @#/? off if we go down.

Smug.

Just like the Rovers players for much of this season.  They rarely turned up......overpaid ponces.

Its a tall order, but we could stay, even if we lose next week. Forest one goal better off means if we lost 0-1 and they lost 2-0 we stay up. If we draw and they lose we stay up. If we win, then we need to hope we either win by more than one goal more than Forest, or that Brum, don't win. We would have took this 10 games ago, but it is looking unlikely.

[JacknOry]

So if we won 2-0 and Forest win 1-0 next game - we are level on points and GD. Refresh my memory on what happens then.

Because we settled as soon as we got one goal, we need to better Forest's result by two goals - so if they score 2 we'll need 4.

Huddersfield's result was entirely predictable - ever since they caved in 4-0 at Bristol City 6 weeks ago they've been woeful. Don't know why people were celebrating Brum being down to 10 men - Norwich showed against us it doesn't make any difference. Brum made a good move in getting Redknapp though I've disliked him intensely ever since he made some derogatory comments about "horrible places up nawf".

So it goes to the last day as always seemed likely. Why does death have to be lingering and painful ?

Mowbray bottled it at 75 mins when Conway came on. Settled for 1-0

Work for Chickens act like one

"When sometimes a win is just not enough" Really, I mean really? Just enjoy the win. I don't know about you, but, it´s going to be a good night here tonight!

We stay up as we have a better head to head.

The Brum Chinese will have put the Wagner dosh in a Red envelope.

Pi$$ed in Peyia.

[Stuart]

Possibly the most pitiful 'lap of honour' we've ever had. Almost everyone in the crowd departed and only Ward left the centre circle to head anywhere near the BBE.

I'll be glad to see the back of most of this shower. Here's hoping for a bit of honesty next season with some real grafters.

Not true, if we have equal goal difference to Forest then Forest stay up as they scored more goals this season.

You have me exact! Well played sir!

[roverandout]

Basically we have to win to catch birmingham. We have to win and hope forest dont. Forest win and we win we need a big score. In a nutshell we have no chance of beating brentford away. Of course we could draw and have forest lose at home. That wont happen

[JacknOry]

So is it goals for or head to head? Some conflicting answers here. Should go down to alphabet in my opinion

I am sure I saw you in the back of a 4x4 a few years back wearing a Rovers shirt.  My mate has an apartment in Peyia that I sometimes borrow.

Forest losing and us getting a draw is my only hope

Ok I stand to be corrected.

No if Brum draw and we win, we finish above them on GD
