Big blow for Boro today who didn't look convincing at all at an out of form Leeds.

Derby were 2nd best against a struggling Fulham.

Great league the Championship and still wide open.

Having 34 points from 17 games certainly gives us a fighting chance.

Next 6

Barnsley A
Forest A
Norwich H
Reading A
Hull H
Bolton A

See where we are after that lot.
Things are looking positive at the moment despite us missing 4 really influential 1st team players at the moment (NM-L, Zohore, Gunnars and Peltier). However, I don't look at any game in the league as a gimme (Millwall and Brum are perfect examples of games we'd hope to get full points from and didn't) and would be really happy with 12 points from those 6 matches, particularly with 4 Away games.

I'd hope that when we get Zohore and NM-L back fully fit then we can start playing further up the pitch again. We probably need 46 more points to guarantee Play-Offs so still need to keep our foot on the accelerator.
