Didn’t realise how tough Derby’s run in is, including away fixtures they won’t win in a million years. We can write them off.

Boro have started scraping results at a good time and have the easiest run in. I expect them to get back in and stink up the playoffs again. Which is a shame for Bristol city who deserve to be in the mix far more.

Boro to squeak into sixth, play attritional football and somehow beat Leeds. Then be schooled like always, against us at Wembley.
That would be nice.

If Carlsberg did play off scenarios. With the camera cutting to a half crying, half fuming Steve Gibson at the final whistle.

That’s actually a reasonably likely scenario. Leeds haven’t beaten boro this season.

This would be ideal.

Fair point but our form is heading in different directions.

They have won the last 2 scoring 7 goals.

Leeds, Sheffield United, stripeyfilth, their bitter West Country cousins, penis, all lambs to the slaughter. We're an irresistible force, and I see no immovable objects in that list.

Anyone who finishes ahead of Spartak Subotica is doing well.

They have always been the benchmark as far as I'm concerned.

Beijing Guoan for me, because that's what you'd shout if you'd backed a horse called Beijing.

Man City lost at Tottenham. We should be top.
