Time will tell but I think as long as Eustace and owner David Clowes manage the club well they will certainly be in the top half.

Clowes I feel is in some ways similar to Doug King he has already rescued the club from administration and got them promoted back to the Championship.

Eustace has a track record of getting teams into the top six without needing substantial investment in the squad. I.e Blackburn and last season Birmingham.

Derby County: David Clowes' net worth compared to the richest Premier League owners

The local businessman bought the club in its final hour in July 2022.
footballleagueworld.co.uk

The acid test of accuracy of my speculation lies in the future.

Eustace seems to get teams to start quickly but they tend to tail off (if he stops there).

I can't. They look like they will stay up now.

The bottom of the table is crazy anyone from 15th to 23rd could go down or stay up depending on form

I didn't realise how much they'd inflated the wage bill for the promotion season or they'd done it on an absolutely massive loss

I agree, but pinning our hopes on Blackburn is a losing proposition. They're so shit. Can't believe they were in the playoff zone for so long. Goes to show what amazing job Eustce was doing.

Only good way to look at this is Blackburn is definitely out of the running I guess.

If they win big away it will help Boro confidence which is a massive negative for us - they should be 3 up after 15 mins

I can't believe some on here counted then out of the playoffs.

I made a point about how I still had them in it. I guess covcity4life is right again!

Agreed. I'm just saying a few weeks ago there were some posters saying Boro were done.

To be fair Boro looked done and their fans were calling for Carrick's head not long ago. We have to get something tomorrow.

He looks genuinely terrible. Second touch is a foul.
