    Better result for us than them although better result for Reading I guess. Assuming somewhere round 42-43 keeps you up this season still very much 3 from 4 unless someone really tanks which looks unlikely.

    I thought before today it was a must win but now feels like a mustn't lose esp if Derby lose at cardiff midweek. Point sets up the 3 home games nicely.......

    No it's more than winnable.

    I wasn't going but after yesterday, I might well go. Derby's only 15 miles from me....

    Edit - we can win if we play like the first half yesterday.

    We have to treat it as a must win.

    Last week was the first game they’ve lost at home for about three months, and they have their captain back from suspension. If you offered me a draw now, I’d probably take it but we have to beat Peterborough and Reading at home regardless.

    My biggest concern is how they seem to have a knack of scoring late goals, and we can tire towards the end of games

    Remember Derby are in quite a false position points wise be a much harder game than first appears.

    And we are a much better side than the first 6 months.

    We need to approach every game looking to win. It's in our hands ( have Derby still to play Reading?) for the first time since w h at feels like restart of the season!

    I'll be there, always go as I live just outside the city. Meeting up with mates (2 Derby 1 Forest) after for a meal in the Exeter Arms before going to the Flowerpot to see this tribute band. 3 points would start the day off nicely :=)

    That looks great, I like a bit of Ska and I love the Flowerpot. Do you know anywhere I could park our motorhome to sleep over?

    Edit, I saw Wishbone Ash there last October, great night.

    My answer to the question is that I would take a draw but we do need to go all out for a win.

    If we needed another incentive it is our only chance of a "double" this season.

    No, no and thrice no! Play for a draw and Coventry happens. And we need to be 4-1 up with 10 minutes to go and singing 'We'll Never Play You Again' at the top of our voices :D

    Bear in mind that Derby have a game on Tuesday at Cardiff and if they win that they'll be above us again before we meet. If they lose in Wales then we have two points and two games in hand on them and a win there next week would be us landing a massive blow nearly knocking them out whilst simultaneously enabling us to put the right frighteners on Reading who next host a Millwall team going there off the back of 4 wins.

    No, Derby have a pretty stiff run-in - they've already played all of Peterborough, Reading and Hull twice. After Cardiff and us next week, they go on a run of Bournemouth, Blackburn, Cov, Preston, Swansea, Fulham and QPR, before 3 lower/mid table teams to finish with.

    The rest of Reading's March is fairly delicious too - after Millwall they have away trips to Forest and Bournemouth and conclude with Blackburn at home.
