We were warned, weren’t we? Everything the EG wrote about Blackburn in the run up to the game said they are a high energy side that creates a lot of c...

@original-fat-bob Pretty impressive stats from HH! Thanks OFB. As you say, the scouts will soon be out in force.

John - so glad the NHS did their work so well on you, enabling you to continue enjoying Boro (albeit from behind your sofa) and contributing so well o...

@exmil Looking at that list of likely top earners, I can’t believe the likes of Chalobah, Amorebieta and (checking my blood pressure before writing...

@martin-bellamy In those days, I seem to recall, a try was only worth 3 points, so yes, there were plenty of tries! If only my team had tried!

@dormo and martin I met someone once whose aunty’s third cousin’s husband knew a bloke’s son who actually understood the rules of rugby union. Th...

@forever-dormo Your point about other teams scoring first is very apt, Dormo. By my reckoning, we haven’t scored first in any of our 9 most recent ...

I hope this doesn’t prove to be a short-sighted move from the club.

Who knows, we may start (Diasborians) to look forward to the next league game at Blackburn on the 16 September! I’ll have to be at my best to get ev...

A very interesting statistic from Borostats. Most goals prevented in a single match: 1st Asmir Begivic - 9 (1.85) 2nd Lee Nicholls (Huddersfiel...

Thanks Pedro. I hope that was the reason for the booing.

I’m struggling to find any positives at all from yesterday’s defeat. You could say that we created a number of one-on-ones, but of course we missed th...

Thank you for a terrific opener, werder. I’ve no idea which team MC will play, but it will be good to have more options. Presumably, we won’t be fi...

Great win. Shows what I know!! All 3 goals ( as seen on Sky Sports) were terrific, and we seemed to be playing some lovely football. Let’s hope this i...

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...
