The season was beginning to be another write off for us after our disastrous run of form after Boxing Day. However, 4 wins in a row (2 impressive home wins and 2 hard fought away ones) means we're one of the form teams in the league again at a crucial time of the year.
A lot of Derby fans want Boro and Burnley to go up automatically now as they seem to be our bogey teams, but Brighton are on fire at the moment and I'd rather avoid them if possible.
It's likely we'll be facing Hull over two legs, which would've been a bit of a scary proposition in previous seasons, but we've beaten them comfortably twice already this season and we should be confident against them again.
Maybe Sheff Weds can beat the third place team and get to Wembley...?
I'm most looking forward to getting smashed by Darby in the playoffs after losing to Brighton on the last day of the season, Karanka walking out, everything falling apart and only 28 people turning up to our first home game next season. I won't be there obvs.
