Pinched from the Southampton fans forum.
If the top 4 win all their remaining games, except Leicester who can’t if Southampton beat them, the table before the final day fixtures would be:-
Ipswich - 95
Leicester - 94
Leeds - 93
Southampton - 93
What a final day that would be, especially as it’s Leeds v Southampton.
Don’t think my heart could take it . . |  | | |  |

Good job there's no smoking at Portman Rd or I'd probably take it up again just for the match. |  |

Would still be must win territory for us, at least at kick off.
Hopefully Huddersfield will be on the beach and celebrating staying up. |  |

Would prefer they were down for moral purposes to be fair - even though I like them more than the others down There | | | |

Watching Sky would be unbearable if this turns out to be the case! Can you imagine how many times we will be shown the live table! |  | | |

The important thing is that destiny is in our hands.
Can see Leicester getting a draw on Saturday against WBA and suspect we will drop 2 pts against either Hull or Coventry.
This would mean, going into last game.
Leeds 93
Ipswich 93
Southampton 93
Leicester 92
A win over Huddersfield would see us promoted alongside the winner of Leeds/ Southampton, or if that was a draw we would go up , as Champions, with Leicester. |  |

Main hope at the moment for me is that Leeds dont get max points form the next two games before we play again (boro away and qpr away). If they get 4, which on current form they may not, they would be 2 points ahead but we'd have 2 games in hand. In other words allows us one slip up out of the last 3 games.
This would all have to rely on Leicester beating southampton as well to stop them sneaking in! |  | | |

That would be a great position to be in and better than the current one we find ourselves in.
Ironically after for the last few months thinking we might need a favour from Southampton vs Leeds it is possible we could end up in a scenario where we need a favour from Leeds to beat Southampton. Bonkers. | | | |

This is my main focus also. Leeds winning both would obviously be the worst possible scenario. Boro in very good form, QPR have picked up somewhat in recent weeks. Two draws would be fantastic. |  |

I had two Marlboro Lights during extra time of the Bolton play off game, hadn't really smoked before. Felt sick throughout the game, felt even worse afterwards! |  | | |

The Leeds Southampton game would become irrelevant if Leicester and town win so not a very interesting scenario at all.
Whatever happens I’m pretty sure we’ll need to win our last game, fingers crossed Huddersfield will already be relegated | | | |

I still think it will be as such. Leicester 98, Town 93 and Leeds and Saints 91. | | | |

Ah yes, Leicester winning all 4 games.....

2 of Boro's best players are on loan from Leeds so wont be able to play |  | | |

I think he’s a massive bellend…. But he set up Boro’s goal on Saturday and created at least one other clear cut chance. |  |

I’ve been a bit like that for several weeks now. I’ve got no idea how the players can cope. | |

That’s not the scenario I painted, is it?
That scenario IS interesting, which was the post, as all other responses to this thread have alluded.
Your first para in answer to the OP is irrelevant, as that wasn’t the scenario I painted, was it?
Your 2nd para is relevant and as someone else posted, at kick off, yes, we’d have to win to be sure.
Why try to diss a genuine, potential scenario post, when nobody else has?
You have a good handle, but should add “in the changing rooms” | | | |

As long as it is still in our hands on the final day, I think we will do it. Don't want to rely on others, that would be unbearable. |  | | |

I've never been a fan of the opposition teams "having (allegedly) nothing left to play for" theory when we need points off them.
I think it can also work the other way - all the tension's released from their legs, they can play with freedom and express themselves because it doesn't matter quite so much any more.
They also have an obligation of fairness to other teams in the league, not to mention their & their fans pride to play for. |  |

Yes, totally agree with this.
In the scenario I painted, if that happens or if we need to win the last game to 100% secure autos, I so, so, so hope Huddersfield don’t need a point to guarantee survival, so we get the low block, park the bus . . 😩 | | | |
