Derby County take on what must be the most important game of what was promising to be an automatic promotion season. The game against Watford has major significants for both sides.
Watford are currently in an automatic promotion place, sitting second to league leaders AFC Bournemouth. Whilst the Rams have slipped to 5th place, with no win in six games and just two points out of a possible eighteen.
A win is vital for Derby County, or they could see themselves out of the play-off positions, never mind automatic promotion, which looked a good possibility just six games ago.
Injuries to leading striker, Chris Martin and his strike partner Darren Bent, haven’t helped the Rams cause, losing John Eustace, the season long loss of George Thorne and the major blow of Liverpool recalling Jordan Ibe have all culminated in a promotion certainty now looking a major task again.
No fans want what could be a nerve wracking play-off semi-final and a final, which could end in glory and riches, or the agonising disappointment which was felt by Rams fans at Wembley and around the World last May.
So come on guys let’s all get behind the Rams for the MAGNIFICENT SEVEN……….
