@werdermouth Two very good posts that accurately reflect the game, mate. And how good it was to see Isiah Jones back producing some of his magic. I...
Wonderful, Andy. Thanks. We’ll obviously have to be much better in this one than we have been in the last 3 games, especially at the back. But I think...
Excellent, Dormo! But no thanks for the reminder that Yorkshire have started the season on the back foot……..!!
Dormo I’ve been trying to solve your quiz question, via the internet, but with little success. Florence Nightingale died in 1910. Asquith was PM fro...
Good post, selwynoz (1.10 am). I like your point about Tommy Smith. I thought he was at fault for Burnley’s first (offside!) goal last week, which is...
What was that I said about needing all our battling qualities? Well, we did well to withstand a lot of BC pressure and chances, and of course to fi...
I really enjoyed your opener, Andy, which was terrific, as ever. Tomorrow is another challenging game. I think we’ll need all the battling qualitie...
Sorry you won’t be posting for a while, Martin. I hope you’ll come back soon. I’ve always valued your comments. Burnley were really good last night...
Well, that was a complete shock. We might perhaps have anticipated a narrow one goal defeat to Warnock, but not to concede 4. I couldn’t believe what ...
Great posts, everyone, and especially Andy for a superb opener. It’ll be a difficult game tomorrow, no doubt. 🫣For me, any win will do. Sheffield Unit...
@exmil Here are my predictions: Burnley (83) W D W W (93) Shef Utd (70) D W L W (77) Boro (67) W D D W (75) Luton (64) D L W W (71) Bla...
@exmil Like Martin, I’m in a relegation battle. Again. Perennial struggler, me.
Just to follow up on that, and especially if you weren’t able to make the game yesterday, you may be interested in this smashing short video from the ...
You’ve all said everything about Boro’s magnificent win yesterday. I’ll just add that it was virtually flawless. I have certainly never seen a Boro si...
Just received a tweet from AV regarding Sheffield United’s financial problems. It seems they’re on the verge of administration and are desperately try...
Is it a bit of a coincidence that Steve Parrish deliberately comes out to praise Carrick one day before sacking Vieira? Prepare for incoming aggressiv...
@exmil Thanks exmil. As your post comes immediately after mine, I’m not going to incorporate your views into my summary, unless you specifically as...
Summary of key points I’m going to use ‘he’ in the following points. I suspect we are all male, but I genuinely don’t know! If this offends you,...
@powmillnaemore Many thanks, Powmill. That’s really helpful.
That old football adage: If you can’t win, don’t get beat. We didn’t. Many a Boro side from the past would have caved in and conceded a late sickener....
As Len said, this has been an amazing discussion. I’m starting now to collate / summarise responses. That looks to be a challenging task, but one I’m ...
I posted my views on the Swansea thread, but picking up on Selwynoz’s point, I’ll start the ball rolling with some questions: 1) Do you want the blo...
Ah, the great Eddie. Famous for such gems as, ‘Oh, he’s going for an early bath! Well, at least he’ll get the clean towel!’ All delivered in those me...
@ken Hang on in there, my friend. Youve got to see Boro back in the Premiership and England winning the Ashes again yet before you can even think ...
Yessss! I saw a Tweet today that said he has scored more goals in 2023 than any other player in the four divisions. And, apparently, only Haaland in t...
Good news! Blackburn lost at Stoke last night! Less good news: - Stoke have now won two games on the trot against top 8 sides, including a 5-1 win ...
Thanks for a terrific opener, OFB! Here’s an interesting scenario. I think I’m correct in stating that Sheffield United have to play at home to Lut...
Deleriad I agree to an extent that Riley is less comfortable on the right, but what the highlights don’t perhaps show is how fluid the pair were. Th...
What I can’t get my head around (yet!) is how quickly MC has transformed this squad into a team that plays scintillating one-touch football. We were u...
Another brilliant opener, Andy, thank you. I don’t care how or by how many we win this one. All that matters is we get the 3 points. As you say, we ne...
