One of the pre-season favourites for promotion, Derby County, were the visitors to Portman Road and there was plenty to cheer about leading up to the last game before Christmas, following the two excellent away wins in the last seven days.
The match was similar to the previous home game versus Middlesbrough, in as much as Town were equal to their visitors until we went behind, this time it was Tom Ince who gave Derby a first half lead, that town were unable to respond to.
The result means that we have failed to beat any of the top four (Middlesbrough, Hull, Brighton and now Derby) so far this season, whilst at the other end of the table, we have a one hundred percent win rate against the bottom four (Bolton, Rotherham, Charlton and MK Dons)!
We are still sitting in the play-off positions at Christmas, but I feel a win at home versus QPR on Boxing Day is a must.
