That's a stretch

Time will tell but I think as long as Eustace and owner David Clowes manage the club well they will certainly be in the top half.

Clowes I feel is in some ways similar to Doug King he has already rescued the club from administration and got them promoted back to the Championship.

Eustace has a track record of getting teams into the top six without needing substantial investment in the squad. I.e Blackburn and last season Birmingham.

Derby County: David Clowes' net worth compared to the richest Premier League owners

The local businessman bought the club in its final hour in July 2022.

The acid test of accuracy of my speculation lies in the future.

I can see Derby as a top 6 contender next season.

Eustace seems to get teams to start quickly but they tend to tail off (if he stops there).

I can't. They look like they will stay up now.

The bottom of the table is crazy anyone from 15th to 23rd could go down or stay up depending on form

I didn't realise how much they'd inflated the wage bill for the promotion season or they'd done it on an absolutely massive loss

SkyblueTexan · 2025-04-04T20:03:50+0100

Boro 1-0 up after 1 min. We are down to 6th now.

Otis · 2025-04-04T20:05:16+0100

So annoying.

Would really help us if Boro dropped points.

Let’s see how it looks tommorrow - it’s still in our own hands

BackRoomRummermill · 2025-04-04T20:07:35+0100

Watching the game give Boro their due they ain’t sitting back just yet - they are going for the kill

Sky Blue Heaven · 2025-04-04T20:08:13+0100

2-0 Boro

Otis · 2025-04-04T20:08:48+0100

Bloody hell.

2 nil up

I agree, but pinning our hopes on Blackburn is a losing proposition. They're so shit. Can't believe they were in the playoff zone for so long. Goes to show what amazing job Eustce was doing.

BackRoomRummermill · 2025-04-04T20:09:46+0100

Their goalie is shit - so Blackburn are out of equation

Tommo1993 · 2025-04-04T20:10:08+0100

Would get used to the idea of us being 8th this time tomorrow…

Pezza · 2025-04-04T20:10:19+0100

Blackburn and their new manager are RANK

BackRoomRummermill · 2025-04-04T20:10:52+0100

own goal

SkyblueTexan · 2025-04-04T20:11:09+0100

Only good way to look at this is Blackburn is definitely out of the running I guess.

BackRoomRummermill · 2025-04-04T20:12:19+0100

A point would do us tommorrow

ptr · 2025-04-04T20:15:35+0100

Blackburn manager had one good spell at Barnsley, very good spell tbf, and has been horrendous ever since.

lord_garrincha · 2025-04-04T20:15:39+0100

Blackburn are giving off Plymouth Boxing Day vibes

BackRoomRummermill · 2025-04-04T20:17:53+0100

If they win big away it will help Boro confidence which is a massive negative for us - they should be 3 up after 15 mins

BackRoomRummermill · 2025-04-04T20:19:36+0100

Cantwell is not having a good game

covcity4life · 2025-04-04T20:22:29+0100

Well today's result is already shit lol

I can't believe some on here counted then out of the playoffs.

I made a point about how I still had them in it. I guess covcity4life is right again!

With 6 /7 games to go there are a few

Agreed. I'm just saying a few weeks ago there were some posters saying Boro were done.

SkyblueTexan · 2025-04-04T20:29:14+0100

To be fair Boro looked done and their fans were calling for Carrick's head not long ago. We have to get something tomorrow.

thekidfromstrettoncamp · 2025-04-04T20:30:32+0100

Gueye is living on the edge of a 2nd yellow here.

we really don't, boro have leeds next and bristol and wba play each other so even if we lose tomorrow we have a good chance or being 6th or even 5th if we beat pompey

Sky Blue Wozza · 2025-04-04T20:34:30+0100

Looks like the police out in force at Blackburn - watching the home fans

He looks genuinely terrible. Second touch is a foul.

Tommo1993 · 2025-04-04T20:51:31+0100

Loudest noise all game those boos

Danceswithhorses · 2025-04-04T21:00:12+0100

How did Eustace get B'burn into the playoff positions...they look awful
