I can’t see derby being stopped atm however take Rooney out of the team and they lose there spine.

Will be tough for us to stay in here I want to say yes but just can’t see us doing it. Hope they proves us wrong

Look at Derby’s run in though.

It’s such a tough run in from here for all off the sides fighting for 6th.if we can win away at Bristol it’ll give us a big psychological boost for the remaining games.

Don’t 4 teams get into the playoffs?

he is assuming the 1 out of Brentford WBA and leeds that misses out on automatic are nailed on.. I agree its hard to see a team outside the play off making up at least 9 points and a huge GD over 6 games which is what it would take to push them out..

I think 3 wins would be enough for us but don't fancy our chances in empty stadiums over 2 legs against Brentford or Fulham. Forest and Derby not so worried

I think we have a good chance of play offs if we don’t lose today.
Hoping in that Boro and Hull are safe by the time we play them....Derby are on a great run but what a tough run in!
If we make the play offs who knows.....

I don’t get Blake saying if we get 3 points today we’re only 4 points off cementing a play off spot.
What about Derby for example?
A typical championship day of weird results could boost/hinder many teams positions.
There’s too much football left with no predictable results at all and this is going to the wire.

I think if we win on Tuesday and they lose it will mean 6 points and around +6 goal difference. It’ll be a catastrophe if we lose it from there, particularly considering Derby’s run in.
