Rooney can't be far behind... No chance. He's turned them round from being rock bottom to being outside the bottom 3. He's got more points since he took over than the bottom 2 have all season.

at that rate, with 8 games left...they'll be lucky to end up with 44 points....They must be some squeaky bums at Derby I reckon...

You don't sack a manager for that. Especially as in the previous 16 games they picked up 29 points.

Derby's recent results coincide with Rooney filming a biopic about his life. Steve Bruce-esque (doing mid-season Man United punditry in the World Club Cup) distractions maybe.

PNE too. No guarantee sacking Neil doesn’t make things worse for them. Their squad is hardly great.

Surely Notts Forest need to be included..... Agreed but it does show that our run-in is easily the hardest of the bottom 7 or 8 teams

Form goes out of the window as the season goes on. Our 2 wins since our form picked up were Swansea at Home and QPR away, sides near the top of the current form league at the time. Each week there will be "shock" results which change the mix but firmly beleive that Wycombe and Wednesday will not get enough points to get anywhere near us. Rotherham or Birmingham for the other spot.

Sounds about right. I think realistically it’ll be Wycombe, Wednesday (likely to run out of games) and one of Rotherham, Birmingham and Coventry. Us, Derby, Forest and PNE should be safe unless the bottom teams hit promotion form. you.can go from preston downwards because although I think wycome will go I certainly don't write of wed trotherham etc yesterdays results prove that anything is possible town are no nearer safe than Wednesday Rotherham etc are nearer relegation. far too many points to play for yet and those who think otherwise really don't know the championship/ yesterdays results didn't surprise me at all Yes its that time of the season, the time to expect the unnexpected results-wise, its the same every season in every division, when people scrutinize teams fixtures predicting what they think will be likely outcomes its just a complete waste of time, difficult run ins, not so difficult run ins....there are always spanners thrown into the works.

Let’s not forget that we beat West Brom in the run in last season. Anyone can beat anyone.
If we can pick up another 3 wins then I’m sure we will be safe.

Lots of points to be dropped by teams in and around us though as the teams in and around us have 2-5 games against other teams in and around the relegation zone in the last 8 or 9 games, so that could help us out potentially

Story of the season for Sheff Utd. Stay in games, miss huge chances, get punished.
Sound familiar?

Yet a Rotherham fan’s reply to that tweet suggests from the outside looking in we’ll be fine.

I get that they have at least 3 games in hand, but that reads how most supporters wanting to display confirmation bias would look. I'm sure we'll be fine. Such a shame that Wycombe are dead certs, would have been great for Wed, Derby and Brum to go down, but hey ho...

When you look at PPG the table would look as follows:
Preston - 53 Town - 52 Forest - 50 Coventry - 48 Derby - 48 Rotherham - 47 ————————— Birmingham - 46 Sheff Weds - 41 Wycombe - 32
