Sutekh Which set of results will unfold?
Rotherham and Huddersfield lose all their games in hand
- The above results is the best we can hope for as these outcomes would mean Reading could survive with just a point at Huddersfield.
Because of the GD situation, Rotherham effectively need just a point against Middlesbrough to be safe against relegation
- The Rotherham game is largely irrelevant to Reading unless Middlesbrough can get a big win to seriously damage Rotherham’s current 8 goal advantage over Reading.
Huddersfield get MORE THAN THREE points from their games in hand and Rotherham also get 1 point or more
- Reading would be relegated at about 3pm on Monday 1st May (even if Rotherham were beaten Reading would be going into the last game hoping Wigan would beat the Millers while also getting a 5 or 6 goal swing in GD).
Huddersfield get 1 or 2 points from their games in hand
- Reading will need to win at Huddersfield.
Huddersfield get 3 points from their games in hand
- Reading will need to win at Huddersfield and may need to win well depending on the GD situation at the time.
As things stand today a Cardiff win will dump Huddersfield back into the bottom three!

URZZZZZZZZ Huddersfield supporting mate of mine is convinced they are losing their two games in hand
He reckons Cardiff will want to confirm their status today, and Sheff Utd (who battered Preston yesterday) will want to get over their Yorkshire rivals.
Football fans and their pessimism ey?!

SouthDownsRoyal If Huddersfield win big today and Rotherham win on Monday we are down surely

Royal_jimmy Also need to remember the goals scored rule. Huddersfield have scored 4 goals less than we have, so let's hope they don't get a couple of 3-3 draws either. Otherwise we'll still need a win at Huddersfield.
I hope the game plan is to try and win and not play for a draw. As our defence isn't good enough to keep a clean sheet.

TiagoIlori Now effectively means:
Reading now must win at Huddersfield to have any chance.
Huddersfield- one point is enough for survival, but they are still relegated if they lose both their remaining games.
Rotherham- one win will be enough for survival. One point would all but guarantee survival, barring an 8 goal swing. If they lose both then assuming a Reading win, they are relegated.
