    Well, maybe it's not quite over yet...

    Wolves 2 (Cort, 28 Camara, 62)
    Middlesborough 0

    Other results around the league mean that Wolves remain in last place, but tied with Leicester at 28 points. Leeds are in the last relegation spot at 32, and Man City are at 34. All have 4 matches left. Everyone else is basically safe, so there are 4 teams playing for one spot. Here's how they close:

    Man City
    at Leicester
    vs. Newcastle
    at Middlesborough
    vs. Everton

    Leeds
    at Portsmouth
    vs. Bolton
    at Charlton
    vs. Chelsea

    Leicester
    vs. Man City
    at Charlton
    vs. Portsmouth
    at Arsenal

    Wolves
    at Birmingham
    vs. Everton
    at Newcastle
    vs. Tottenham

    Basically, for Wolves, all 4 games are must win. That would mean a finish of 40 points. So, Manchester City would have to drop 7 of 12 points, Leeds 5 of 12, and Leicester just 1 of their final 12 points. But, again, this is all contingent on Wolves running the table, which also means winning 2 games on the road, something they haven't done all year. It might be a longshot, but it's still doable.
