LUX Phew.
Late winner for Luton. They missed a penalty earlier.

Comprehensive view of all clubs who have played in the Championship since the name for what is essentially Division 2 became official in 2004:

Yeah we’re definitely due a new league one way or another in the next few seasons.
I wonder what it looks like for L1 and 2 by comparison.
Utd, Chelsea, Spurs, Everton, Liverpool and Arsenal all been in the PL since it started... but you'd expect the top flight to have some pretty long serving clubs... the wealth hoarding tossers.

Everton have never been relegated have they?

Cardiff in deep trouble aren’t they?
Seem to recall them bigging themselves up after beating Norwich first up. Gone very very wrong for them

Their fans were not bigging themselves up at all. They were delighted and surprised to have won the game
They have endured rotten luck. Losing Sala who was their record signing was bad enough. They may well have stayed up if Sala hadn't died in that awful accident and now they are paying many millions for that transfer. A double hit.
I hope they stay up.

I’m with you Zip, if it wasn’t for bad luck they’d have no luck. I hope they stay up as long as it isn’t at our expense! I like to see all Welsh clubs do well and I’m hoping more locally Wrexham can get back in the league this year. I’m enjoying Colwyn Bay’s unbeaten league season in Cymru North at the moment,drew the first game and then have won the next 18 in a row!

There is definitely a lot more resolve about our aquad this season. It mirrors the manager's personality.
Think we will be ok. We can all agree the last two results have given us breathing space. We had been on a run of just 5 points from 9 games.
The last two have helped tremendously. We're equally as capable of going on a little unbeaten run with a good number of wins as a barren winless run of sub relegation form though.
I worry about goals. They look like they could dry up at any point. We aren't creating a lot and are relying on being clinical again.
We should be fine though.
Yep. We are not creating much at all and another run of poor results can happen again. Usually by this stage of the season you want certain teams to win or lose. I have no idea whether I wants teams in the bottom six or top six to win.

For the record Reading's next 7 games are Watford (h), Sunderland (a), Rotherham (h), Cardiff (a), Blackpool (h), Middlesbrough (a), Sheffield United (h) and after that lot we should know if the club are going to be safe or still worrying that it might go to a dodgy end to the season.

I'll predict 8pts of that lot. Wins against Rotherham and Blackpool, draws against Watford and Cardiff, defeats to Sunderland, Middlesbrough and Sheffield United.
I'd love to be more optimistic but our away form is diabolical, so unless we change things up I don't see us getting much change from those teams, could maybe sneak a win against Cardiff because they're in pretty terrible form right now.
