6 points clear in sixth with 2 home games to come against Bristol City and Swansea. A good chance they will be already guaranteed a playoff place by the time they play us.
Hopefully we’ll get to enjoy a dead rubber in the sun 👍🏻
Need them secure in 6th without chance to finish 5th and avoid an Ipswich semi
yeah, reminds me of the Huddersfield game 2017, they were already in the play offs and were not even hiding the fact they were not interested, they were also under David Wagner so hopefully he does us a favour again.
They changed their whole team that day. What a stroke of luck that was for Harry.

They could be desperate for a win. That ground full, us fans. Unstoppable. I adore all of you.
We’ve got two massive games before this.
Not even looking that far ahead and not sure how you can.
It would be so Blues to do that today and eff it versus bloody Rotherham.
Il focus on Norwich the week going into Norwich.

They have Bristol City and Swansea at home next 2 games, I think they'll be guaranteed a play off place before they play us, mission complete. I think this is one of the factors that plays massively in our favour. Of the 5 teams fighting for survival I feel we have the best remaining fixtures by far. We're going to be fine.
NouCampWhy would they want to avoid Ipswich, they haven't lost to them for 15 yearsNeed them secure in 6th without chance to finish 5th and avoid an Ipswich semi
Norwich win today was also huge for us as it's highly likely they'll be resting players on the final day now
Beat Rotherham and we'll be fine

Does that rule still apply about having to play x number of players from the previous game. It got brought in after we benefitted from Huddersfield ringing the changes.
Yes, 10 from the previous week have to be in the squad.
You could put 9 on the bench...
Not sure but even if they had to field their strongest 11 there's no way they'd be playing at 100% and be trying to avoid injury at all costs if play offs is secured
And if Leicester beat Baggies next week I'm hoping they will be all guns blazing for Sheffield Wednesday the week after just to make sure 🤞

Fulham didn’t rest players mate. They’d have gone up automatically if they’d won!
