    A great result for Bolton tonight.Leaves them needing 4 from 4 to reach 37.Villa OTOH might now struggle to make 41 points 5 points needed from 3.Think they may need something from us on the last day.

    So, Wolves have reached 24.Looks like Bolton and Wigan have the best chance of exceeding their quotas Villa maybe struggling to make theirs.Still fancy the bottom three for the drop.Whilst we are not mathematically safe the goal difference over Bolton and Wigan looks insurmountable.If QPR don't win at SB tomorrow then we are mathematically safe.

    And even if they do somehow miraculously manage to find a win there, if Bolton fail to beat Spurs on Wednesday, we´re still safe. <ok>

    If you really want to cover all the bases put a fiver on this: QPR to win all three at 9/2,5/4 and 10/1 will bring you £625 Put your winnings on Bolton to beat Spurs at 14/5 (£1750)Then to beat WBA at 13/10 (£4025) and then Stoke 10/3
    (£17,500)
    Wigan to beat Blackburn 9/4 (£57,500) and Wolves 4/9 (£83,000)

    Villa to beat Spurs at 13/5 (£252,000) And Us 15/8 (£725,000)

    Then on top of that Wigan have to turn over a goal difference of 6 and Bolton 12.Given that run of results Wigan possibly would but Bolton would be unlikely to,an average of 2.4 goals per game required.

    Two games left,apart from Bolton.From the bottom I have Wolves to lose against Everton and Wigan.Blackburn to draw at home to Wigan,lose to Chelsea.QPR to beat Stoke lose to Citeh,Villa to draw with Tottenham and with us. Boltonto draw with Spurs,beat WBA and lose to Stoke.Wigan draw Blackburn Win Wolves. In Which case:

    Wigan 41

    Bolton 38

    Villa 38

    QPR 37

    Blackburn32

    Wolves 24


    That raises the interesting scenario of the last games with QPR needing a better result at Citeh than Villa get at CR to stay up.
