Welcome to Diasboro
Diasboro is a virtual home for those discerning followers of Middlesbrough Football Club who appreciate a thoughtful debate on the issues that affect their club. As its name might suggest, Diasboro not only caters for Boro supporters on Teesside but also for the many now spread through all parts of the UK as well as those now scattered in the proverbial, yet geometrically unfeasible, four corners of the globe.
It was launched in January 2017 in order to continue providing a forum for the community that had evolved on Untypical Boro after it came to an end. Diasboro aims to provide a friendly environment where the ethos of sharing thoughts or opinions on all things Boro by playing the ball and not the man. That may mean overlooking the occasional late tackle when passions are raised or simply accepting others may hold differing views to your own. It’s about living outside the echo chamber where nobody holds the wrong view if reasonably argued.
How to join the discussion
Boro started the season with Rob Edwards in charge but despite sitting in the top two the lure of relegation from the Premier League with Wolves proved irresistible and the club turned to a young Swedish rising star in Kim Hellberg to continue the promotion push. So join the discussion on the Diasboro Forum as members offer their view on how the latest regime is performing. Though if you wish to share your thoughts with fellow Boro followers then you will need to Sign-up and Register by carefully following the instructions.
