It's just so important to start well tonight. Get on top out the gates ...out battle /work them and let them feel it means much more to us. 
We do that sometimes but if we don't score early there is then a lull and we can give the opposition confidence and start giving the ball away very easily.
Intensity is massively needed,  moving the ball quickly, energy all over the pitch and make it a cup final they aren't that bothered about participating in. Hopefully get an early goal and then sweep them away. 
If not I feel it could be a long night where we give them too much respect and something to play for.

Rows? I haven't noticed any and, in contrast, have only seen them supporting each other.
I see the defence as a (preferably) 5 person unit that builds understanding over time.
To bring in Vickers at this crucial stage of the season, with his lack of game time, would be a big mistake, imo.

I hope they launch a Scottish sister club called Fleetwood Mac

And we responded by beating Blackpool and drawing away to Pompey unfortunate not to win. We lost back to back games in Feb, we responded by winning 4 in a row. In adversity the team generally delivers, even in the Northampton game despite being awful we still should’ve won. Bolton were battered by Bristol by all accounts but managed to win, we destroyed Bristol when we played them. 
We’ve got the tools and are playing well enough to get the wins to get the job done regardless of what Bolton do. 

Also didn’t vale go and beat Barnsley at their place recently? Drew away with Wigan and we’re unfortunate not to win. They’re in a scrap for survival and are picking up form who is to say Bolton won’t drop points against them. Derby are no more or less likely to drop points than Bolton and we’re net second with 4 games left. As others have said you’d have bitten your hand off for this position back in October when we lost to Stevenage. 

It’s time to believe.

We are in pole position. Embrace the final games, don't cower behind the sofa.

What am I reading? I know we've all been through some right bottle jobs following Derby, but come on.
Barnsley ruled themselves out yesterday.
Peterborough have a horrifc run of games in 21 days and rely on a high energy game. 
Bolton really struggled to beat a poor Bristol Rovers team and haven't taken any more points than us over the last 5 games - and we've had to navigate Portsmouth, Blackpool, and Bolton themselves in that time.
Wycombe are playing a final this evening....beat them and it leaves 2 home games and Cambridge away. 
Honestly, I can see us winning the next 2, and Bolton drawing against Portsmouth, and it all being all being effectively over. Only 6 days to wait.

Wycombe, Orient, Cambridge and Carlisle 
If we cannot take all 3 pts off those teams whilst in poll position for the autos then we don't deserve to go up. 
Let's put Wycombe to the sword and put more pressure on Bolton!
