Draw. Boro' drawing and us winning vs Barnsley means we can overhaul them.

I think Wilder's Boro, ironically, are the chief rival for that '6th' spot.

WBA and Bournemouth don't seem immutable. I can see Blackburn taking that 2nd spot if they keep Brereton (and they probably will) with Bournemouth choking.

If we win we're only 6 points off 2nd.

I'm looking forward to it. A win for either side will give them a boost.

Me too pap, ideally would like a draw.

I dont know what's best. Blackburn look just out of sight for us at the moment. Are we not better off if they get the win? I dunno.

I'm greedy mate and looking at the top 2 if we have a good run. So Blackburn are in that mix, especially if they lose Brereton before the window closes may open a door for us. Especially with us playing them in a couple of weeks, we could soon pull them back in.

Yep, I suppose so. Draw it is then.

It's fun to have matches that we can watch with interest that aren't just worrying about us getting relegated or Derby matches

I haven't checked this but apparently Nottingham Forest have been fouled more than any other Championship side this season (320).

298 of those were either Jonno or Yates going down for a cheap free kick - probably.

Love them both still.

That doesn't surprise me I think Derby committed about 30 fouls on Saturday.

Probably got a reputation as being a bit too green and a 'soft touch.'

Hopefully, after the 'Derby' game, they'll see otherwise.

20 of which were in extra 6 minutes....but our game management was the problem according to them.

Watching Blackburn v Boro. Just seen as well as two right backs on the pitch,  Boro have Lee Peltier on the bench who whilst a utility player is actually a right back by trade!
All three of them put together are not as good as Spence!!

Isaiah Jones is probably the best right back in the league.

That will do.

If Forest beat Barnsley we can go above Boro' and close the gap on Huddersfield.
