As it stands at HT.

Rovers need a 4 goal turn around, so score two and if Burnley put another 2 past Reading and we are in the play offs!

It was my dream for Rovers to score six second half goals and then Burnley to concede a late equaliser.  Possibly even an own goal.  Tee hee.  

Good to see you come over from the dark side and support the Clarets for a while!

I know, I know, its serious!

Shit game but hey Derby had more than their fair share of chances to win it. 30 mi s with 10 men. I'll take it as a unconvincing butwin but it is still a win.

Watched Burton beat Wycombe 3-1 and what an awful game but am now watching Plymouth v Portsmouth and it is the complete opposite. 3-0 to Plymouth after 30 mins. 

Their stadium would be the perfect size and shape for the Nix. It holds 16,388.

And so close to the pitch. I heard "we'll be coming" at some stage, unless I'm mistaken.

Current manager beats an ex manager..although he did do good for Boro.

Boro looking good for promotion. There was a time in recent seasons when even the championship looked a lost cause but your club has bounced back really well.

Biggest crowd of season(32000) saw us beat Forest 3-0...and still only 4th!  Tough league to get out of..and easy to get back into it seems from EPL.

Really exciting following my second team Brentford this season. I would have been happy just for survival this year but the Bee's are right up there in contention for a play off place.

Amazingly tight. Top 4 on 66 points and then one point back to 5th.

Not quite.

Ipswich(H)

Derby(A)

Bournemouth(A)

Wigan(H)

Watford(A)

...

By then we will either be clear at the top or hanging on to last playoff spot!

Hands and destiny..

Four of the top seven. Thats a tough run of games. Might help Brentford though if they keep winning. You Bees!!

sharing top spot with Watford..maybe get 5 point break if we win and others lose below...

We scored from a great training ground corner move..wish Nix would be as inventive.

How great would it be to see Premier League sides having to go to Dean Court next season.

Holds 12k and looks like exactly the stadium we need here.

Swap them for Westpac. They're gonna need it if they go up.

Pretty sure they beat Utd there in the FA Cup some years ago.

Have been to a few game there. Great atmosphere.
