Next tiebreaker is goals scored, so Hull would barely advance if it came to that.Faustus said:
Derby County wasn't as out of it as thought supra either.
Going to have to likely have to win the last one by as much as Hull does to maintain the 1 GD margin. Not sure what the tiebreaker is if they finish the same in GD.
Also - big league game today that impacts Wrexham… Ipswich can clinch* promotion with a win, but a draw or loss leaves things completely wide open, giving Middlesbrough a shot at getting 2nd.
They'd have a lot more to play for against Wrexham on Saturday if that happened, so I think we have to be Tractor Boys today and pull for Ipswich to win. (That being said, Southampton's form is insanely good and they play at home, so I'm prepared to be disappointed).
*With a 17 goal difference lead over Millwall (which would rise with a win today), I think it's safe to use the word clinch.
Editing to add result: Southampton-Ipswich ended in a draw. So Saints can't get direct promotion anymore, but Middlesbrough could with a win (and Ipswich loss and Millwall draw/loss). Wrexham will be up against it.
