Perfect night. Considering we were resigned to relegation after the Posh game, it's been a pretty good week.

linkenholtroyal Does anybody think Peterborough are likely to get a bounce if they hire Grant McCann, like we have with Ince. I just can’t see it happening the same.

No, because their players are shit.

Everyone can stop panicking about relegation now. We are safe as houses.

Great results. We have to force a result st Blackpool now, who are 1 win in 6 at the mo.

Derby travel to a very in form Luton. Derby looked tired and their away record is poor.

If we do our job, we have a real chance to open up a double digit gap this weekend. If.

We need to keep momentum up. 4 - 6 points can disappear in a week. We have 2 winnable games now, so 4 points would be great.

Main difference between us and Posh is we can score goals and they can't!

Agreed. 4 pts from next 2 would be perfect. Derby have 4 away games in next 5.

They probably need minimum 7 wins from 13 to get out of it but if we look after ourselves they will get deflated quickly.

Over past 3 games we have picked up as many points as Derby have over the last 6.

Derby did not look up to their best without Tom Lawrence who’s out for a further two games. Have to take advantage to widen the gap.

Yeah, just look at how our outlook has changed since Saturday at 2pm. A lot can change quickly in this league. We need to keep it up.

Got to remember posh at home to out of form Hull Saturday, if they win and we lose it`s 5 behind with a game in hand. but that`s away to Bournemouth.

Or a Hull win and we win, 11 point gap between us and Peterborough and still can overtake Hull in our own hands.

What a great night :lol:

Pressure getting too much for Derby. Can't wait to see those self entitled numpties in the third division next season. Exactly where they belong after all their cheating.
