For me it has to be Plymouth, thinking about competition for next season. They're not the same team since Schumacher left, and I expect they'll lose Whittaker in the summer. The other 3 would all be big players in League One.

One of my mates is a Blues' supporter so I need them to go down both to stop him crowing and so we can meet up!!

Wednesday. It’s a much easier day out than Plymouth.

Got to be Wednesday for the local derby.
Some good away days next season that are not too far away (Burton, Lincoln) and good to have another local derby

What competition is this? There's no way we're going to be competing for promotion with this squad.

Blackburn will be as bad if not worse than Plymouth. They will lose szmodics and without him they would be bottom.

I would worry about Blackburn or Birmingham with the money they have behind them.

I know the smart answer is the potentially weakest team for next season but I can't see past Birmingham. I just thought they were a horrible cynical bunch yesterday and made a managerial decision potentially rivalling ours and its nice to see that back fire on them. Plus I live in Wolverhampton so it's local!

Wednesday deserve to stay up for their recovery run since Rohl came in, and particuarly since we beat them 4-0. I thought they were dead and buried then. Birmingham have done a very similar thing to us with their various managers, and much like us have been stinking out the lower reaches of the division for a few seasons, they deserve to go more than the other two.

Yes but that's trying to inject even a iota of positivity that we will reshape and get a squad that should compete. It might not happen but I dont see a reason why its not sensible to target competing right at the top. Or shall we look at who might be the four worse teams? Would that be a better starting point for you? |

Plymouth purely for the way they celebrated after beating Leicester like they were already safe.

Like we did after beating Millwall & Brummies when defeating Coventry, the result between Hull & Ipswich has thrown a spanner in the works now with Tigers needing to beat Plymouth & Norwich almost certainly resting players at St Andrews.......Gonna be one of those two, hoping the Blues. |

Don't care tbh
But in a sick kinda way will get some pleasure seeing another set of fans go through the heartache we are currently experiencing

TBH I don't really care
But if I had to choose: Wendies because they're so massive or Brum because of 01, no feelings one way or t'other about Argyle, in fact used to have a mate at school who was an Argyle fan so I'd probably steer away from them purely for that.

From a selfish view I'd go for Plymouth as that and Exeter would be viable away matches for me to get to.
Knowing my luck at least one of them will be while I'm on holiday out of the country.

Living in Sheffield - has to be Wednesday, their fans are a right pain in the arse. They’re talking like they’re safe now and discussing the promotion next season to the premier league like it’s set in stone. Bring them back down to earth with a bang, let Rohl leave. Yes please.

Birmingham. Without a shadow of doubt. They've been due to drop for such a long time and they've stayed up by the skin of their teeth every time. They've been awfully run, and managed to luck their way out of it on the last day more than once. They managed to win a major trophy entirely because the opposition goalkeeper dropped it into the path of their striker in the last minute of a match they'd been battered in. They've lucked out of administration and huge points deductions. They just seem to be a lucky football club. And after 2001, when they were graceless and classless, I've just wanted to drag them down.
Plus, I think they're more likely to be a club with a target on their back at that level, having not played there for so long. Most sides in that league have played us at that level in the fairly recent past. They haven't played Birmingham. Plus, more of their squad is likely to want out, have no winning mentality like Plymouth or Sheffield Wednesday following their promotions.
All of that means they'll scab their way out of it yet again on the last day, defying footballing gravity and disappointing me greatly.

If Blackburn Rovers go down... surely it will be a record first time that a 'Season Top Goalscorer' (Sammie Szmodics) has played for relegated side?

Have people forgotten Pritchard plays for Birmingham?! After forcing a move from Sunderland. It would be hilarious, plus I hate their fans.

I went for Plymouth as Devon is a great weekender, however I've just seen the post above and the prospect of Pritchard having another relegation on his CV is quite appealing.

Brum would come down as favourites for the title.
As would Blackburn.
Massive have a brilliant Head Coach but not a lot else going for them. I'd expect Roehl to leave and them to go to shit.
Plymouth seem to have a decent set of fans.
I chose massive, although for the most part I couldn't give a shiny shite.
