    Which may lead to Wood marking him.

    I know which team I would say has the better chance of survival.
    Blades

    It could have been so different with the relegation battle, if Reading & Wigan had not got points deductions.
    Rotherham would have been in 22nd relegation spot with 2 games to go, with only Blackpool relegated.
    Correct & what could have been tables in my April / May games postings.

    .
    We could win both of our matches and Reading would be safe if Huddersfield lose both games

    Get the fittest players on the pitch even if they are out of position and fight like Tigers. Boro wont want it up em if they are going into play offs.
    You could argue we've already had 3 bites of the same cherry.......Wigan minus 3 points,Reading minus 6 points and a monsoon. That's a very big cherry!

    They got those penalties because they cheated and it should have been harsher to both clubs.

    This is why I am nervous. In seasons past we have had some rotten luck, this season the footballing gods seem to be trying to give us survival on a plate. Except RUFC seem to think they're at a Greek wedding and keep throwing the plate against the nearest wall!

    Yes and they didn't just do it once but the recent deductions were for repeating the offences. I don't get why some folk on here insist on saying we should think ourselves lucky if we stay up just because of the points deductions. Would we think ourselves lucky if other teams were found to be playing with 12 men or having squads of 40 players? Breaking rules is breaking rules and there are consequences.
