Or will the game be abandoned after a tennis ball protest.
Or reading sneak a win? It's not a foregone conclusion that Derby will win. Especially with the pressure of going top.
Reading to win 1-0, ever the optimist
We have only ourselves to blame
out of all the top sides, Derby seem the one most likely to suffer unexpected losses.
Even Bolton have had the odd wibble wobble. Every team is capable of it. We should have the confidence to know that when we hit our potential, no team in the league can deal with us (apart from Cheltenham
)
I think Derby have the best squad in the league, with probably the biggest budget too.
It would be a surprise if they didn't finish top 2.
big games tonight. Perhaps not being top would change the pressure on the team?
Bolton, Barnsley winning 1-0 each Derby 0-0
And oxford losing of course to Barnsley
70 mins, Derby not had a shot on target. Cheltenham giving a good account of themselves too.
Bolton caught up with three points.
To answer the OP
We are top of the league!
That could have been far worse, pretty good for us really.
if we can go on a run (somehow) all the teams are capable of losing games just as often as us.

Everybody ready to pounce on Saturday, though.
Pressure is on. Good! January is nearly over. Everyone else is on a bit of a run and we know runs come to an end. Vital 3 points next time out!
