I think we already knew Norwich and Boro were the two main ones to worry about.
I think that's 5 straight wins for them in a row now.

Norwich beat Ipswich 2 - 0 another team to worry about.

Hooper and Jerome on the bench in case the forward line needs freshening up.
Dorrans keeping them company.
Says it all really.
Just a surprise they have taken so long to emerge as contenders though most of us did think they'd be ones to worry about.
I just hope Thorne and Martin are back for the Norwich game or it could be a difficult afternoon that people have paid through the nose to see! :/
Norwich will be champions by 4-8 points. Thought that in Nov/dec, and still think it now. Before new boss came in I started to hope that they were imploding and dressing room was lost, but they seem to have been galvanised by Neil's arrival and have always had big enough, talented enough squad to win the league.
Not sure if they will win by that margin, but they are in the ascendance at the right time of the season and will probably achieve auto promotion. Derby have been top team in recent months and many sides have raised their game against us. This has helped the likes of Norwich & Watford to come up the slip stream to close the gap. Looks like it will go down to the last game for us, otherwise will have to do it via the play offs.Originally Posted by Toggles
I think if we can get through the March fixtures & still be top 3 we will be ok. Got to get auto place tho for me. Don't think I can take play offs again & not sure if the team could either. It would be a massive blow to confidence to miss out on 1st or 2nd place & then to raise their game again to get to wembley & promotion!! Sorry for being a bit doom & gloom. It was all going so well too! :/
We just have that really tough week, get through that OK I think we'll be fine.
We have had a bad day on Saturday but let the likes of Norwich worry about us. Remember Wigan last season, came flying through and everybody was making them play off favourites and then they came unstuck. Everybody relax, we are still the best team in this division.
Have a look at norwichs fixtures and say you wouldnt like to swap.
If we don't beat them it "looks" even worse!
Wigan last year and Norwich this year are chalk and cheese...
