Sorry to hear of your illness, Powmill. I hope it is mild and that you and your family are soon recovered.

If Bolton had continued with their amazing unbeaten start to the season, I’d say we would lose. They are usually very good at home. But since that bli...

By my reckoning, we’ve now not won in 9 league games over this season and last. We’ve lost 6 of those games, including all 4 regular away games ( ie, ...

I must say I shall be very disappointed if Coburn goes out on loan again. With all the caveats you’ve all identified, I still think he is worth a look...

I’d like to echo everybody else’s view that your opener was outstanding, Len. I really loved the socio-economico-geographic portrait you painted of th...

Twitter is currently alive with Leeds fans salivating because it appears Rangers’ Glen Kamara is going to sign for them. That one always looked unlike...

Despite the score, I really enjoyed yesterday’s game. Boro played some scintillating football at times. This looks like the makings of a good team. I ...

Are we expecting any more incomers, do you think? Even if we hang onto Coburn - a big if - I feel we are still striker-light. Surely we will need to s...

@k-p-in-spain Thanks for that. He looks very good. Let’s hope he can reproduce that kind of passing and shooting for us.

Quiz question, playmates:- who was the last player Boro signed from Atlanta? Answers on a postcard………

Boro have completed the signing of Danish left back Lukas Engel! Four-year contract.

Meanwhile Sky report that Chuba is having his medical at Ajax and that Burnley are going to sign Aaron Ramsey. We’ve missed out on Giles and it looks ...

Thanks for a very enjoyable opener, Dormo. Considering that you (partially) wrote it while listening to Boro getting hammered at Coventry, I think you...

Personally, I would rather keep Josh, at least this side of Christmas. Give him his head, let him see what he can do. He may not be played as the main...

@plato ‘’Shambles’ is a very strong word for what happened, in my view. As you say, Boro had been brilliant for a long time. We were then very unlu...

Well, looking at the nascent league table, the only way is up!

Question:- why play Crooks when McGree was on the bench? Why play Rogers at number 9 when Forss is obviously so much better? We paid the price for ...

Brilliant, OFB! I must say this Bolton game is as tough as they come. They made the play-offs last season and have started with a bang this season...

Thanks for an excellent opener, Deleriad, I enjoyed it! I can’t see us winning this one, though last season in the first play-off game we were the ...

@ selwynoz That’s a brillant analysis of the game and our current situation. I really appreciated it.

It sounded very much today as if we badly missed spark down our left side - at least until Silvera came on. I think it will be really difficult to rep...

@peter-surtees An excellent post, Peter. And welcome aboard!

Thank you all for your best wishes. I’m confined to one bedroom, but my jailer-wife occasionally brings me bread and water, Powmill - unfortunately...

An excellent opener, Andy, thank you. Unfortunately, I’ve drawn the short straw as I have to do the next one for the Huddersfield Carabao game. I expe...

@lenmasterman Very good, Len. You sent your post while I was still writing mine. I think the tenor of both our pieces is very much the same. I agre...

I can’t help thinking we’ve got our recruitment strategy wrong this summer. Clearly we got in all the youngsters and the keepers early, which looked v...

@lenmasterman I agree with you, Len. If I were Chuba I would definitely be looking at all offers from Premier League sides. He owes us one after Bo...

@powmillnaemore Many thanks for all your work on the COTS challenge. Your table looks mightily impressive. However, I only have O-level Maths ( and...
