I think it will take a major turn of events to see either Wednesday or Blackburn come down. It's either Brum or Scum.
Fingers crossed!

After all the talk (including from me) about 50/51 points needed to ensure safety, in the end 45 would have been enough this season...

On this basis, when were we actually (unknowingly) safe?

Wouldn't mind Blackburn. Away fans pub is only a few minutes from the ground, it has plenty of accommodation and serves reasonable meals.

I’ve taken up that challenge.
Our win at home to Burton on 16th March took us to 47 points.
So the subsequent 14 points accumulated against Charlton, Cheltenham, Stevenage, Orient, Port Vale and Northampton were just the icing and then the cherry on the cake.

Yes, but as the small print says for investment products, past performance is no guarantee of future performance, or words to that affect. I know it was a long time ago but Torquay went down on GD on 51 points from League One. For me the target, at the very least, has to be 52. That target also means you've had a reasonable season. I'm hoping for more than this season's 61 next time. If a prolonged bad run like this season's can be avoided, perhaps 70 could be possible.

I found this video animation of L1 league positions throughout the season interesting, especially if you pause it at match round 8.

How come 13 points doesn't get you a nomination then
