I don't agree. Birmingham played for pride, and presumably had their best team out. Derby have the playoffs to think about and may want to rest players. That looks less likely now.
FT 1-0
Well of course, and even if Derby did rest players, those on the field would be trying to do well to get a place in the team for the playoffs. It could have been a touch easier if they rested a couple though.Regardless of the result our players will told by Mr Hughton that Derby will be playing to win regardless of their position and that's good management.

How much are we willing to risk to get a win against derby.
A win on Monday means that we can draw at Boro .
But what if we lose key players to injury chasing the Derby win.
