Luton finish with Blackburn Hull finish with Cardiff
Cardiff will need the win to guarantee play offs so if either team has to win on Saturday then hopefully its Hull as I cant see them beating Cardiff, but hopefully Luton v Hull is a draw
Wigan finish with Fulham
We're probably the one team actually that'll have a dead rubber as think Leeds will seal the title come the weekend
Will just depend if Leeds want to treat it as such or end on a high

Fulham may be out of automatic promotion contention by then, but can't finish lower than 4th, so won't have much to play for either.

Will they want to end on a high and so keep the form going into the Play-Offs though
Look at us when we went to Rochdale on the final day two years ago
Wigan wouldnow be safe without the 12 point deduction. They should deduct it now, so the tables show a true reflection.
If they end up safe with the theoretical deduction, the deduction is applied next season.
That's not true. If they stay up even with the 12 point deduction then they're safe. It's only applied next season if they finish in the bottom 3 before the deduction (which can't happen).

Surely not? - I thought that only counted if Wigan went down without the deduction
Maybe I read the ruling wrong but I thought it wasn’t applied until next season if it didn’t affect the outcome (ie safety or relegation) of this season.
To think Millwall could be promoted to the Premier League having won just 17 out of 46 matches. And we could be relegated to League 1 having won 4 less games than them.

They've only scored three more goals than us as well

“ If in the event the Club is relegated by virtue of their final position following the conclusion of the Championship season, then the deduction will apply in League One in 2020/21. However, if the Club is not in the relegation places following the final game of season, the sanction will be then be applied to their season 2019/20 total and final league standings amended as appropriate. ”

That doesn't seem fair - if the 12 point deduction is applied this season and they stay up then where's the punishment?
Beat Birmingham tomorrow and we are safe. Lose that one and I can see no more points this season - likely relegation with Barnsley and Hull. Two draws might be enough to drag down Hudds or Wigan and maybe even Sheff Weds. It is still in our hands. Amazing really.
if we weren't so shit i'd be doing my pieces with how close the scum are to promotion
They might be jammy, but when you consider who else will be in the playoffs, Forest and probably Fulham and West Brom/Brentford, it would be extraordinary for them to win them

The punishment is a 12 point deduction.
It's not a 'however many points it needs to relegate a team' deduction.

Sheff Weds 0 Huddersfield 0
Both full times.
And Sheff Weds too - if they get a 12 point deduction.

It's only applied next season if they finish in the bottom 3 before the deduction (which can't happen).
There has got to be a punishment - so down without deduction is -12 in League 1 - stay up without deduction it's -12 in the Championship.
As if not they wont start next season on -12 pts in the Championship
the scary thing is i'd rather any team were playing this fixture for us other than hull
The sanction will be applied at the end of this season if the Latics, 14th in the Championship, finish outside the bottom three after 46 games.
Should Wigan finish in the relegation zone, the penalty will be applied during the 2020-21 season instead.
