A strange game that was played out like a dead rubber for much of it. Still, a fairly routine win and we remain in the hunt. Not too sure what to ...
Ha! Now don’t exaggerate my comments! He’s been Boro’s best so far, involved in everything good. Balogun has been an improvement on recent starter...
Ah yes, I see your logic Phillip. Still we have the extra game to close that gap if needed. Lets hope the Blades only get 1. 2 or 3pts and we get on...
Phillip, The difference between Sheff U’s GD and ours is only 4. If we win tonight we’re right on their tail. Naturally they’re favourites but I’m...
I like Watmore against passing sides as his pressing from the front hurries them and increases our chances or turning the ball over high up the field....
Crooks in the holding role, two new strikers and a keeper and I really like that side for next season. There’s a lot players there that can look after...
Some excellent posts above as ever. On McNair, I agree that he’s done well at left centre-back but at the same time I think he’s fairly obviously ou...
Does anyone think Crooks could be tried up front? Maybe if he had a strike partner with real pace alongside him? He’s a presence, got decent feet, a...
Or Tav at left wingback, McGree and Payero in the middle? One for next season maybe.
Come on Ken. Surely Boro will raise our hopes one last time just so they can be more brutally destroyed down the line?
Exmil, I agree re the striker I think but it would be a surprise if CW does. I’ll go out on a limb and declare that I fancy Payero to have a big s...
I’m not sure that we need that much surgery, Deleriad. I think Watmore and Coburn are good enough as subs, so two strikers needed rather than three....
In fairness to the forwards, Tav’s chance was probably the best of the game. Watmore should have hit the target in the first half in my view. Doesn’...
Well Boro had multiple excellent chances to win that game in the second half but yet again our ability to finish let us down. Swansea had a couple o...
The free-kick he’s just taken certainly hasn’t helped my argument! No doubt that composure is the weakest part of his game. Not sure if that comes w...
You might be right Pedro. Tav’s chance for 2-0 looked better. Bugger.
Oh should be 2-0! And now it’s 1-1. Where has all this goalmouth action come from???
McGree as Boro win the ball high up just as we thought was the way we might score! Great start to the half!
It’s been the game we might have expected so far. Swansea largely in control of possession such is the way they’ve played for years but vulnerable at ...
Bamford? Great. Kalas? Decent.
I’m sure there’s a long list of returning players but I’m struggling to think of many especially many who were poor? Pally - perfectly fine though c...
I agree with the posts against BG tbh. I’m a big fan of his in terms of his commitment, professionalism and leadership but he would take too much of t...
KP, Yes, definitely. It’s hard to see where the cash for a rebuild is without selling Spence. The cup run will have done us some good though and we ...
KP, Grrrrrr! In fairness, we already have a Tav replacement in McGree but obviously I still wouldn’t be selling. Re Spence/Jones, we could setup i...
Gibson would certainly be a low risk signing given he obviously knows the club and would have no issues bedding in. I imagine he’d be more than happy ...
KP, I noticed CW talking a few times about a lack of leadership particularly around defending the opening goal for Huddersfield last time out. He sa...
Hopefully this episode has caused a bit of a reset and good things can come from it. From the press conference today, it sounded like Wilder and Gibso...
Much, much better from Wilder today. Clear, to the point, no messsing around. He almost apologised for his previous statements (“maybe I don’t always ...
