My decision to focus a large lump of my opener on Kieran McKenna has been justified! He has won Championship Manager of the Year. And that’s fully des...
@mw-in-darwin Excellent, mw, thank you!
@mw-in-darwin Brilliant statistics, which I’d never seen. That fact about the substitutes and how many goals they’ve scored is amazing - especially...
@original-fat-bob Irony’s not dead yet, then, OFB?! 🤭 I got depressed just planning the thing!
@stircrazy I like it. Anything that damages Wilder’s interests is fine by me!
@paulinboro I agree. He’s reverted to disappointing type after one good game. I also agree with Andy that Azaz was also not convincing until he s...
@werdermouth Agree entirely, werder. Boro were shambolic at the back at times, offering Hull a ton of opportunities. A better side than the Tigers ...
Fantastic opener, Powmill! I asked to swop my Leeds assignment because I’d done the away game and didn’t want to repeat myself. You’ve produced a mast...
@pedro No. More than that. When he’s fit, he’s very skilful, and scores goals. I’d say hold out for £6-7 million. But personally, I hope he does st...
I quite enjoyed the game. Let’s face it, it really doesn’t get any easier in this division than against this supine, hopeless Wednesday team, but Boro...
@andy-r Brilliant, Andy! Many thanks.
On another matter entirely, would someone be prepared to swop with me to write the opener for the Leeds game? I did the away game earlier in the seaso...
I would also like to proffer my thanks to you, OFB, for all your contributions over this season and many previously, and also for this excellent opene...
@stircrazy A sucker punch indeed! I was poised to write that we played some nice stuff going forward but were our usual toothless selves, then sudd...
Paulinboro, OFB, exmil Thanks for the seat details. I’ll keep an eye out for you all! I’m East Stand Upper, block 36, row 34, seat 91.
@exmil I’m in East Upper, block 36, exmil. Near neighbours! Are you to the left of the TV gantry as you look down on the pitch?
@exmil I’ve paid Boro my shilling this week, so I’ll be there next season.
@mw-in-darwin Thanks for that correction. I just assumed as the Aussies had already played Lebanon in Oz that the second leg would automatically be...
In response to comments above about Greenwood, and an EG article this week saying he might be worth buying permanently, I would say that I don’t think...
@forever-dormo Re your post on the football regulator: One very important question you hint at is the issue of timing of games and how, so often...
Well, the only big question remaining now for this season is: CAN WE FINISH ABOVE SUNLAND? I think Carrick should make that his personal ambition f...
Another amazing starter, Dormo! Can I tentatively correct some statistics ? FootyStats appears to suggest that Rovers have scored 51 league goals this...
Well, 3 points, just about deserved, as we were strong defensively, and scored a brilliant goal. As Werder said, BCFC dragged us down to their level s...
An amazing starter, Dormo. Thank you for spending so much time and effort in producing it. It was certainly well worth it! I’m hoping for another g...
Fabulous win. I thought the back four all had great games, with Rav absolutely outstanding. His last ditch tackle did as much as the two goals to keep...
I agree with fellow bloggers, deleriad - this was an inventive and clever way to approach the starter. I like the historical perspective. It works rea...
@original-fat-bob and others! Oh dear. I fear I may disappoint you all if you are hoping I’ll lift the mood!! Like Dormo, though for real, I’d pre-w...
Today’s second half was even more disjointed than against Plymouth, and all game we barely created anything. We hardly ever threatened the Stoke goal....
I was at Cardiff. When the final whistle went I turned to my brother and yelled (above the astounding, joyous din coming from Boro fans), ‘Europe! We’...
