    Who reckons we can get autos still?

    I have just had a look at the 4 teams above us and tried to predict the results for the remaining games they have. I have bournmouth top on 87 then the other 3 on 83 or 84 points. This actually came as suprise to me, as I didnt expect to have bournmouth as my title favourites. That means to top the league we need to win every game, but 2 nd could be secured with 6/7 assuming Watford is 1 of those 6. With a fully fit squad and 2 weeks break I think this is possible if not probable. What do others think is needed?

    I will know more after the Watford game.

    If we beat them, its game on!

    All 7 games are winnable, with Martin and Thorne/Eustace in the team.

    Without Martin and Thorne/Eustace, we won't win 6 or 7 imo.

    We need experienced heads now. We have 7 cup finals almost, we will find ourselves 0-0 or 1-0 up with minutes to go and its whether we have the minerals to get the goal needed, or see out the victory.

    Can we do it? Hell yes, will we do it? Only fate knows the answer to that question.

    Reckon we can but in reality we won't.

    Sadly, I now look at results of Wolves, Ipswich and Brentford before I look at Bournemouth, Watford and Middlesbrough.

    Like a few other poster's I will make my judgement after the the Watford game. Still lots of twist and turns yet. I've heard Bournemouth have lost callum Wilson now through injury. Now if this is true there's ya first twist. Just Hang fire for the turn . Keep believing COYR

    I think we will go up via autos still.

    I'll be gutted if we don't make it! I keep saying we can do it but we're Derby and seem to shoot ourselves in the foot when we are in a good position. We have had great opportunities to fire forward but have failed again to take advantage. Heart says yes but if I had a free £1000 bet on rams to go up on autos I think I'd be putting the cash on us staying in this division as I think we have left it to late to get the points needed!

    I've said all season Bournemouth are the team to beat. they've been the most consistent side and play the best football along with us imo.

    they've definitely been underestimated and that's probably worked to their advantage. look at this board - probably about 90% of people keep saying they'll fall away but they keep winning. I believe they'll continue to do so until the end of the season and get top 2.

    as for us, we probably would need to win all 7 games to have a chance. I think the teams above us are too good to keep dropping points at the rate they have. I think there will be 2 out of the top 5 that win almost all their games so that's what we'll need to do.

    can we do that? if we get martin and thorne back then yes. we've done it before. will we get thorne and martin back? I doubt it. it all seems very shady to me. I agree with a few others that have said the thorne thing may be worse than the club are letting on. same with martin, he seems to be healing at the same rate as Ja
