    Providing we beat Southampton today, then Birmingham losing to Ipswich is not the result we want.

    Should us and Birmingham both win, that would have meant a game at The Valley where both teams know that a draw promotes them.

    Birmingham will now go into that last game needing a win.

    If Birmingham do lose then we just need two draws in our final two games to seal promotion. A win wouldn’t really change much today as we would still need a draw against Birmingham. 

    A must not lose then!!

    As I say above - a win makes no difference - we would still need to not lose to Birmingham on the final day regardless - otherwise Birmingham and Palace would go up on GD (providing Palace win)

    Nice to have the title in our control though 

    Edit: you’re right, a draw does that too!

    Come on Sunderland. Help out your old friends Charlton.  Can’t have those stripey idiots beating us.

    Surely that depends on GD after today’s game.  Palace are only +1 to us now. If we win 3-0 today it’s conceivable that a draw between us and brum gets us both premature.  Pressure would also be on palace to get win.

    However it does also mean slightly less pressure on us if results stay the same.

    A Birmingham win today would've meant we also needed to win today (and that would've meant we were 2nd). Now we only need a draw to go top.

    Palace win (boo), brum lose.  Let’s go out and win today. Exciting last day.

    Where on earth were our defenders there?

    Absolutely awful defending. Playing at walking pace and look a beaten team already. If they end up in the play offs (as is looking increasingly likely) they don’t stand a chance on this showing.

    Really just need a draw. Then a draw next week will see us promoted.

    That was nearly exactly the same goal

    I suppose even if we lose today - a win next week guarantees promotion due to Birminghams loss. Something to cling onto..

    Losing a 5th game in 6 currently, and if it stays like this we're no longer in the drivers seat for promotion, which is the mother of all drop offs from where we were in March

    Yep, it's been a crazy drop off from a team that went about 14 months unbeaten.

    Immediately looking better with Hutton on and Newsham on her natural side

    It does, but Birmingham will know a draw sees them home and we don't play well when we need a goal, we're much better suited if we were the ones needing a draw to get promoted

    So much better with Hutton on the pitch.
