We've had 3 previous seasons where we've lost 20+ and not been relegated.

We lost 21 from 42 in Division 1 in 1929-30 and finished 3rd bottom, when only 2 went down.

Ditto in 1953-54..

We also lost 20 (from 46) in Division 3 in 1982-3, but we won 19 and finished 11th.

Win our last 3 and we'll have both won and lost 20 in a season, which we've never done before.

Incidentally seasons we've win 20+ and weren't promoted (or finished in the top 3 in the first tier)
1931-2. 20 D1 7th
1935-6 20 D2 3rd
1937-8 22 D2 3rd
1946-7 21 D1 6th
1957-8 21 D2 21 6th
1958-9 23 D2 3rd
1969-70 22 D2 6th
1996-7 20 D1 5th
2002-03 23 D1 3rd
2003-04 20 D1 8th
2008-09 22 D1 3rd
2011-12 27 L1 3rd
2021-22 21 CH 5th
2024-25 28 CH 3rd

Incidentally last seasons 28 wins is beaten in ANY season only by 2016-17's 30 and is thus the most wins per season we have ever got in the top 2 tiers ;-(

From relegation from the Championship yes we are safe.

From clueless yanks interference in our football club, no we are not safe.
