Excellent result - I hope that gives Exmil, KP and OFB a boost too! Not wishing to be modest, I did call it (player mis-descriptions apart!) UTB Chri...
@forever-dormo It seems that although his stay at the Boro was generally unmemorable, somehow it stuck with me! He is now at Sunderland and I hope he ...
Conway even!
Thank you Clive that was a great read! Here was I thinking you were such a mild mannered bloke. CW is clearly not your favourite manager; for me he ...
@k-p-in-spain Very true 😂. Good luck tomorrow!
@original-fat-bob Good luck in hospital Bob. Owing to your impressive research it sounds as if you will be advising the doctors, instead of them advis...
Well I predicted all of the right score, but not necessarily in the right order!
Werdermouth thank you for your intro I enjoyed reading it. Peter, you pretty well nailed the current position; positive about our prospects in general...
Are we being a little too pessimistic in response to an away defeat? I look at the table and see Coventry, Hull, Luton, Stoke, Bristol City and Swan...
Philip is right to praise Morris. A very good acquisition. Watford are on the up and by no means the weakest side in the division. Boro are a bet...
@lenmasterman Thank you Len - and Powmill for the link. It really is a very good read in a distinctive style. Great traditions coming from proud commu...
Thank you Powmill that intro was very interesting. Somebody somewhere has probably done a phd on the interaction of football and the industrial revolu...
@exmil best wishes for your operation and a quick recovery. Chris
@original-fat-bob It would be useful! At the very least it might produce a level playing field 😉
Thank you Jarkko, I enjoyed reading your intro. I hope McGree will get a game this week. Here is another "Wonder from Down Under" : Chris
Aaron Danks joined Bayern Munich at the end of last season. Whilst they always seem to be very strong at home, I noticed they won 5 - 0 today. The oth...
@original-fat-bob very good 😆
Thank you for your intro Forever Dormo. Fog and rain interspersed with a bit of sun here. Not quite perfect cricket weather, but hopefully the sun wil...
Thank you Martin; very good preview. I really appreciate the time writers take to make their contributions. Way beyond what I could attempt! It will...
@werdermouth you are right; McGree and Gilbert have it in them as ball players to create openings. Latte Lath and (when fit ) Forss can finish. Jones ...
Not a side picked with progression in the cup in mind. Looks like MC had protecting his first 11 uppermost in his thoughts tonight. I doubt he expecte...
@pedro We could have had better results but it is early days yet. Other sides we would expect to be competing with at the top of the table later in th...
@jarkko no but like you I hope he is getting over his health problems. Chris
@jarkko yes you are right and Jones is reported to desire game time. A good result today in the friendly. I may have missed a new topic being opened...
Agreed. Keep the squad fit now and no more signings required !
Gt - That is the question. McGree?
@forever-dormo Thank you I hope to be merry again after our next game! Thank you to Selwyn as well from so far away. UTB
@werdermouth Thank you Werdermouth - my wife agrees! Thank you Bob it is good to hear we don't play the Sheffield Utd way on this forum. Thanks also t...
