    Pivotal game(s)?

    if you could say out of the games we've played which one/string of games would be pivotal for us this season?

    i mean as early as derby? 2-0 down 89th minute..
    hammering our close rivals swansea 4-0?

    what would be yours?

    I thought Reading away with 10 men was a big win

      Good question.
      A few spring to mind. Cardiff 2-1, Reading away and even Watford at home because it might have given us a kick up the jacksy.

          For me 2 big results just the fact that all the others were hoping we would slip iup in were Reading away and Keicester at home 2 big wins when the pressure was on they all thought they would close the gap in these games BUT the gap got bigger

            The wins against Ipswich, Boro and Liec then a kick up the bum at Wall carried on by wins against Palarse and Donny. That sequence has kept us top.

              Those were the 2 for me as well! Momentum builders and as you say against sides who were flying high!

                Cardiff at home and possibly Leicester too, 2 games when the pressure was on

                  Derby for me because it showed we didnt know when we were beaten and gave the players belief

                    i think the late goal at palace, combined with derby away.. sort of gave our players confidence that if we dont play well we can get a result.

                    cardiff, leicester and forest at home was all very "high profile" bar a fluke goal we should have got 9pts instead of 7.

                    good shout on watford, that and leeds really helped us realise we need to perform to win and not just show up.

                    i feel the signing of routledge to be key aswell. when mackie was fit, id stress we looked somewhat predictable.. especially with walker going back. routledge restored pace in the side and i think thats been pivotal aswell.

                      For me it was certainly the Derby match, it was the first time i thought this season could be very special...and lo and be-hold....

                        Derby was special but around that time we had Sheff Utd away, Middlesbrough, Ipswich and God knows how many other matches that were 'really going to test us' and we won them all. From then on we all knew it was our season......didn't we??!
                        2011-2013, 2 seasons in the Premiership, 76 games, 14 wins........two years of my life I'll never get back!!

                        2013/2014 mediocrity topped off with a win at Wembley....

                        2014/2015 was pretty much the same as 2011-2013.....

                        2015/2016, average at best.....

                        2016/2017, same old, same old....

                        2017/2018, aim low, avoid disappointment!

                        Its the hope that kills you!

                          Palace away for me. Knew then we going up and felt happy as I told some palace fan as I was leaving the ground.
