That is literally it. We've been done favours now need to do our job. Not going to be easy but feasible.

Nonsense. Our season will not be defined by a defeat on Saturday. I am dreading the doom and gloom merchants on here if that happens.

I think this rollercoaster of a season has plenty of life left in it

All these good blips from our rivals - and we would have taken a draw at kick off at Cheltenham tonight - won’t be as positive if Town don’t turn up at Pride Park… in our hands

We have enough quality to beat Derby, but have to turn up and start fast

Play like Bolton and we win

No we don’t and no it isn’t.

I suspect we’ll get 18-20 points in our last nine games, so there’s room for a few dropped points.

Doesn't matter if we then win the rest after.. Just got to have a run that includes another 6 wins.. Do that and imo that will do it.

I don't think you're wrong but beating Derby sends out a message. It kind of feels right now in this division that it lays a marker down. It's just a thought and may only be mine but there you go, feel free to disagree.

Find it highly unlikely you'll get that many points at this time of the season.
Just don't see you beating Derby, they need a win to stay in the play offs whilst you need it to stay in touch with Wednesday so it's got draw all over it.
I'm not sure which team is better from you, Barnsley or Wednesday but my money would probably be on Barnsley.
I have a feeling Barnsley will be second to Argyle at the end of the season and you'll lose to Peterborough in the play offs.

Psychologically, 3pts would be huge...Just to keep the pressure on top 2...SW are looking vulnerable to pressure atm. Be a shame to give them any breathing space again. Just when they need it.
Think we can get at least a point. 4pts from Bolton and Derby away, is a decent return..
Having said that, you'd think , looking at ours and Derby's form, going into this one, that it's a good time to be playing them. Again, pressure here, playing a part in DC form, imo. Theyll be under loads on Saturday.

We are obviously hoping for Plymouth and Wednesday to slip up, which is only natural, but let’s not forget we’ve got some very testing away fixtures left. Important that we don’t get over excited when things go for us and not too downbeat if things go against us.

If we go into it thinking a loss is ok, what does that say for us?

If we play well, give our all, and look to win, we probably will. If we come unstuck then so be it. But thinking a loss is ok because it’s not season defining, IMO, is wrong.

Out of interest, did you see FGR beating sheff weds? Or Cheltenham drawing with Weds? Or Exeter beating barnsley?

You would hope the team go into every game looking to win, but for those of us watching from the sidelines it's OK to realise that a loss on Saturday would not be season defining.

Seems a little pointless getting so excited about all these dropped points if we can then be cool with dropping points ourselves.

Fwiw I have Saturday down as a draw

Derby are decent at home, going to be one tough game. Would take a draw now, a win would be epic, a loss is acceptable now based on recent results thankfully.

It’s not as much as a must win game.

Would be nice obviously!

Agree with this, said before I think a point away at Derby is decent. If we win, I'll be ecstatic, and it will pile the pressure on everyone else.

Good time to play them, they've not been on the best run of late.

Listen matey. We are hands down the best team in this division. In terms of game control and chance creation we have been all season. What we lacked earlier in the season was having a killer edge on top of the quality football. We have added that now. We're not going to be invincible, but barring injuries I'd have us as strong favourites in every game we play until the end of the season.

Big faves on Saturday, which surprises me somewhat.

Draw for me.
