If West Brom win, they go up, if they draw and Brentford don&#8217;t win, they go up, even if they draw and Fulham win then they&#8217;d go up unless Fulham win by 17 goals.<br>Brentford face Barnsley who need to win to avoid relegation, Barnsley&#8217;s win against Forest on Sunday gives them a glimmer of hope, Barnsley need to win and hope that Charlton loose to Leeds.<\/p>\n\n\n\n<p class=\"wp-block-paragraph\">As far as the play-offs are concerned we could face either West Brom, Brentford, Forest, Cardiff or Swansea, assuming we get to the final.<br>If Cardiff loose and Swansea win then Swansea will have the same points but a better goal difference.  If Forest loose then Swansea will need to change the goal difference by 6 as their currently 5 off of Forest&#8217;s goal difference, so if Forest loose 3-0 and Swansea win 3-0 then Swansea will go ahead of Forest.<\/p>\n\n\n\n<p class=\"wp-block-paragraph\">All Fulham can do is to beat Wigan and hope other results go their way, we&#8217;ve a good record against Wigan, 9 wins, 1 loss and 10 draws so it&#8217;d be Fulhamish for West Brom, Brentford and us to loose!<\/p>\n\n\n\n<p class=\"wp-block-paragraph\"><em>COYWs<\/em><\/p>\n\n\n\n<h3 class=\"wp-block-heading\"><em>Games of Interest&#8230;<\/em><\/h3>\n\n\n\n<p class=\"wp-block-paragraph\"><em>Wednesday 22nd<\/em><br>Brentford v Barnsley<br>Cardiff v Hull<br>Forest v Stoke<br>Reading Swansea<br>West Brom v QPR<br>Wigan v Fulham<\/p>\n\n\n\n<hr class=\"wp-block-separator\"\/>\n\n\n\n<p class=\"wp-block-paragraph\">come on over to the forum and join in the discussion&#8230;<br>https:\/\/www.friendsoffulham.com\/forum\/index.php?board=1.0<\/p>\n","protected":false},"excerpt":{"rendered":"<p>Our last &#8220;league&#8221; game of the season sees us travel up to Wigan.
