Results going our way so far. Would almost feel slightly hollow for it to be done before we even play tonight, but I doubt it would affect our performance too much if it does play out that way as the goal will just shift to securing the title as soon as possible instead.

Sounds like we got away with that second half, but it's another 3 points on the board and we now need just 2 points from our remaining 5 games to secure promotion. Next up is Bournemouth next Saturday, and I'd definitely like to give them a beating to do a little bit of damage to their hopes of...

1-0 up at half-time, courtesy of an excellent free kick from Kieran Dowell. That'll do for now. Sounds like it's a little bit scrappy, as Derby had 3 players booked in the first twenty minutes.

Looks like Swansea are going to delay our promotion by at least a few days. Possibly for the best, as it means the team can be fully focused on doing their bit and getting the result today. As expected, it's an unchanged XI for us, while Derby are putting an 18-year old right back up against...

No new injuries for us today, so it'll almost certainly be the same XI that tore Huddersfield apart again, especially as Derby also have a lot of players missing like Huddersfield did. Only change on the injury front is that Rupp has suffered a setback on his road to recovery and will miss...

Weren't Derby potentially going into administration after the previous attempted takeover fell through at the last minute? I guess this will at least put that on hold, but their situation still feels very precarious after that "trick" they pulled with the stadium to bypass FFP.

The thing is, no one's stock in our squad was high after the disastrous end to last season. Pukki's had fallen especially low as he'd contributed basically nothing for a good portion of the second half of last season as he was playing through an injury for so long. That and his age meant that no...

I know that our entire squad took a 50% paycut upon relegation last season, as is always the case when we get relegated. So, far as I'm aware, our highest earner is the useless Drmic on £25k a week and I'm fairly sure he's the only one on more than £20k a week as it stands.

It's easy for the clubs without them to blame the parachute payments boogeyman for everything, and while I can't deny that they do have an impact they aren't the be all and end all, as Huddersfield are currently proving by being utterly mediocre even with them. On the other side of things, Leeds...

Well, that was certainly something, as good a performance as I've ever seen us put in. Some fantastic goals as well to do the job. And now it is entirely possible, though not necessarily likely, that we could be promoted on Saturday if results go our way (and given Brentford and Swansea's...

And a brilliant fifth before half-time. We've never scored five under Farke before today.

Well, this first half has certainly been something. The usual three absolutely unstoppable and scoring some great goals to boot. And why not go and get more while we're at it?

As expected and hoped, we see Aarons, Giannoulis and Skipp straight back into the starting XI tonight, with no other changes to note. On the flipside, Huddersfield seem to have quite the injury list lately, but I'm sure they'll be no pushovers. Still, we should have enough about ourselves to get...

While I'm sure it's not true for all the clubs affected, it at least for Coventry and Luton sounds like an administrative issue, where the Government allowed a three-month extension on filing accounts at Companies House while the EFL did not change their rules to reflect that. Huddersfield and...

Not sure if this maths quite works out, but someone on our forum has said that if we win and Brentford draw tomorrow, we could be promoted as early as Saturday (if we were to then better both Brentford and Swansea's results).

Sheffield Wednesday are 5-0 up against Cardiff... where's that one come from? I guess that'll put an end to Cardiff's play-off hopes for the season at the very least. As for our game tomorrow night, Buendia is a doubt after taking several kicks from Preston on Friday, but we'll have Aarons...

I think after those criteria would be head-to-head records, then maybe alphabetical order if somehow the teams involved had identical records against each other. Of course, it's all hypothetical as there's no way it will happen given how both Swansea and Brentford's form has dropped off...

We'd literally just won 9 in a row before the international break, our draw with Blackburn putting an end to that run...

The meeting between the two sides at some point in the next few weeks will, in all likelihood, prove decisive on who wins the title, but I am definitely feeling like we might let that slip now. The changes in defence definitely didn't help today, but we still need to be doing the business at the...

Well, that's two points dropped very late on because Pukki lost his shooting boots for the day. No surprise it slipped so late in the farcical circumstances surrounding the scheduling of this fixture. Two draws in a row now, and Watford starting to catch up. Need to get back to winning ways...
