       I participate in the Hungary NBI predictions league every year &
       every year I am reminded why I really shouldn't - my predictions
       are absolutely useless! That said I am currently 10th (up 3
       places after last weekend) with 3 games to go, 3 silver round
       finishes, including last weekend, & 1 gold finish which is the
       highest weekly score of the season! I anticipate I'll be about
       20th after the last 3 rounds!

       It's worth remembering that SG2 refs have been used for some
       Championship semi-finals over last few seasons. However,
       Telegraph report that clubs likely to be involved have accepted
       offer of VAR so if that is used for Championship semis then I'd
       guess SG1 refs will very likely be used.
       I'm not sure a retiring referee will get the play-off final. I
       don't think Michael Oliver has had the Championship play-off
       final yet so if he doesn't have international commitments I
       think he could get it (although I'm not sure if he referees Boro
       matches, if they happen to make it?)

       I also think over last 5 years or so it's often not been the
       very top SG1 referees who have done the Championship semis,
       presumably in part because they have been used for some of the
       key Premier League games near the end of the season. There's
       plenty of those (plus FA Cup final of course) next weekend.
       I think the semis might go to likes of
       Gillett/Jones/Bankes/Friend.

       Yes, you are right. Michael Oliver has only done one Final - the
       L1 Final in 2008/9 when his dad refereed the L2 Final. So
       certainly a possibility this season depending on Boro + other
       commitments. dave26 - Chris Kavanagh refereed the Championship
       Final last season, so presumably won't be in the running this
       time around.

       I wouldnt be surprised to see Hooper/Scott/Harrington/Salisbury
       involved with Oliver or Marriner getting the final if Moss isnt
       given the big send off.

       As an Aussie I hope Jarred gets a play-off. I think Moss will
       get the Final as a send off after a good career.
       L2 I hope Breakspear gets a game, I've watched many of his games
       and I like his style and he gets the big decisions right.
       Reading reports from the weekend he wasn't shy in telling
       Bristol Rovers that he would abandon the match if they didn't
       get control which is a sign of strength.
