At the risk of stating the bleedin' obvious Friday is a massive game. Win this and I think we're going up, of course not mathematically as there's ages to go yet but psychologically its huge.
We have a tough week with the wendies then Birmingham, but then have 8 teams from the bottom half in our last 12 games. Boro's last 4 games are against (i think!) Burnley, Birmingham,Ipswich and Brighton which is pretty tough!
I see Derby winning 1-0 against Blackburn just overtook Wendies for 5th. Don't know if that makes them more determined or more vulnerable.
"Danny Graham. a former Derby loan-signing, held off Richard Keogh and turned Jason Shackell. But from 10 yards out he spooned his shot over the bar."
I have a feeling City will bottle it and be in the play offs . Trouble is we keep winning ? Bruce OUT
I think its ok to have the top 6 all in with a shout of autos! Obviously if we keep winning? Too many times you see teams with nothing to play for towards the end of the season & someone gets an easy 3 pts! The top 8/10 will all take pts off each other & hopefully if we keep winning & the odd draw we may well do it with a game spare? #optimist!
Bruce, Dyche and Hughton all have promotion experience in the Championship, I reckon Karanka is the one manager that probably will feel most pressure. 92 pts should win the title but second spot might need 89-90 Last time we went up with 79 pts in second place !
I would love to guarantee promotion by beating Leeds. Just hope we don't limp over the line like last time, don't think the heart can take that again.
