That's a tough run of fixtures especially that game against Norwich, a derby game with the form Norwich are in will be extremely difficult for them, reckon Norwich does then over, want them to draw with Millwall and think that Southampton game will be a draw.

If we beat Swansea on Saturday then it's a cracking position to be in this close to the end, I hope Millwall do eventually get that 2nd place
If Millwall get 4 points from their next 2 games they will be in a stronger place. If Millwall win both the race would become us and them for 1st and 2nd. There's certainly a chance of it happening

This is our worst run of form over 8 matches so far this season, if we do no worse than that we'll be OK for promotion.
I think we'll do a bit better but nerves will be frayed by the end and it will be closer than we would like.

Which included Ipswich twice and away at both Southampton and Preston 🙄

Now? Away to Swansea because of Vipotnik and home to Hollywood. In the rest of our games we should be clear favourites to win.

Wrexham kept Vipotnik relatively quiet on Friday night.

He has that one great chance and hardly had a sniff after that

Can't personally see them overtaking us but I'll be happy if they get 2nd, I can't see us throwing away our position,n 3-4 wins I think will do it however we're more then capable to put another 6 game winning run together

He should of really put that big chance away, Strelic had a really good chance with all the time in the world to finish on Sat for Boro but he hit it right at Vitek.

I'm not nervous about our chances , I think we will get it done and win the title , when it's official an were champions I can watch the scrap for second and playoffs relaxed with no stress lol

I think it’ll be easier but it’ll be nervous. Those chasing us will also feel the pressure and (hopefully) continue to drop points.

They're under 1.4 PPG away from home all season.
They're 7th in the last 6 away form table.

If theycarry on like that, and there's nothing to suggest they won't, even if they win all their home games they'll end up on 84.
I just mean after next 3-4 games they might be close to us if we go on a bad run same time. Thus important not to panic even though it will be nervy as they may drop off again

He was holding his groin, so I do think there is an injury there. They may be just trying to manage it

Otis have you ever had a groin injury. 🤔

Only thing that really worries me is the injuries. Rudoni and Thomas will hopefully be back soon, but looks like Wright and Eccles could both now miss a few games. We should still have enough but an irritating time to be picking up so many of them.

OPTA updated today saying 83/84 will be enough for promotion, and we are expected to get 91/92
Ipswich now favorites for second ahead of Boro.

A small consideration really, but people seem to overlook that if Ipswich were able to make up the 9 points on us, they might well make up the 10 goals difference too. It's 3 wins for them (+ positive goal diff) set against 3 defeats for us (- negative goal diff).

Yeah, you may well be right. I think Derby could be tough, but still think we will win..

Cant see us wanting to lose two in a row at home. Think we’ll see a reaction.

Wright will be unavailable for USMNT call up if he is injured
