    The run in. Think Ipswich have the easiest-looking, followed by Leeds. Us and Leicester both tough. Think if Leeds beat Leicester tonight, they might go on to win the title.

    Going by the colour coding, we've dropped to 13th-18th by the time we play Ipswich! That's some fall from grace!

    Depending on tonight’s result and looking at the fixture list, a top 2 of Leeds and Ipswich could be feasible for the end of March.
    I think Leeds have gained 11 points on Leicester this year and conceded 1 league goal, so are obviously THE in form team and a good win tonight could put Leicester into a bit of a panic.

    Lots of twists and turns to come. Hull showed us up in the week and have to play each of the other 3 still. Ipswich have Norwich again and also have a very long cross-country trip to Argyle close to the end of the season (Argyle might still need points to secure their status and are particularly good at home, Leeds aside).

    As we all know well, teams in relegation trouble can come to life at the end of the season. In our last 6 games, we have 4 or 5 that will probably have nothing left to go for by then.

    Hmm. Conceivable that all of Coventry Stoke and Leeds will have something to play for.

    Hopefully Leicester will be so clear by the time they play us they might take their foot off the gas! They look very good.

    Leeds have all the possession, Leicester have all the goals. Stats!

    I really hope Martin mixes things up against Leicester by getting us to sit deep and hit Leicester on the counter.

    Leeds could be three or four down in this second half.

    I hope Martin (and I'm sure he is) is watching this very closely.

    Just checked the score for the first time off the back of seeing all your comments expecting it to be 2/3 nil to Leicester. It’s only 1! Can all change very easily at just 1!

    Tbf they scored another which was incorrectly ruled out for offside - linesman didnt see it came off a defender
