As things stand, we're heading into the second international break in a decent league position, though the fear remains that unlike other promotion seasons, we have a couple of key players to thank for our fortunes rather than a balanced and well-adjusted Championship team. The first eighty minutes of Wednesday night were pretty much an illustrated guide of Reasons Why We Probably Won't Get Promoted; the last fifteen were Reasons Why We Might Just Blag It Anyway. There's still a ton of work to be done, but this weekend we can cap a decent run with a home match against a struggling Reading side, and if the forward line fires on all cylinders after a lacklustre midweek performance, there's every chance we may regain a top two spot for the next fortnight.
