Simple fact of the matter is that regardless of how poor anybody else is or may be for the rest of the season, unless we win points we won't be catching anybody. We have failed to win important games against Hull, Burnley and Palace because we have absolutely no idea how to defend properly. We fully deserve to go down based upon the season so far.
Quite how we could manage to go through almost an entire season and still be in the mess we are, bearing in mind just how poor some of the other sides are is simply astonishing.

After the first Palace goal it was like watching an execution. I made a note of the fact that our first worthwhile attempt on goal was an Austin header in the 72nd minute (I'm not counting a speculative shot by Adel that went over the bar in the first half).
We simply don't get players forward. We got players forward against Sunderland and we won. Why oh why have we stopped doing it?
Anyway, I just can't see us getting even one more win, never mind the four we need. We are down.
The plus is that the Championship is a vastly more competitive division than the Boring Premier League. Going into today's matches there were FOUR TEAMS with the same points at the top of the table. And THREE of those were separated by a goal difference of ONE GOAL. And even Bournemouth at the top were only another 3 goals ahead.
Not sure how we will do next season though. We are going to lose a lot of players in the summer, including the one who has been scoring over half of our goals.'Only a Ranger!' cried Gandalf. 'My dear Frodo, that is just what the Rangers are: the last remnant in the South of the great people, the Men of West London.' - Lord of the Rings, Book II, Chapter I - Many Meetings.

Was pretty reconciled to our fate long before Palace, probably when we failed to bring in Pullis. All season some fans have been making silly predictions -"we will win at Palace" etc - but the reality is we are a messed up club and dont have that fight/ organisation/ leadership to even carve out a few hard fought draws. Been down a while to anyone prepared to face reality.
