Ken I’m dreadfully sorry to hear your news. I’m always amazed at how you manage to keep your chin up in the face of so much adversity, so this is an...
On a more serious note, is anybody else slightly perturbed that Boro are taking so long to find the right man? While it is encouraging that SG is clea...
Hannes Wolf? Must admit I’ve never heard of him, but then my knowledge of continental football and its top coaches is somewhat less than encyclopaedic...
@philip-of-huddersfield Interesting thought! I don’t think I could better your choice of three, unless it was to put in Paul Merson as an attacking...
@paulinboro Danny Baker got that spot on! Amazingly, Boro had 63% of possession, and 7 corners to Millwall’s none. Yet we had just one shot on t...
Good grief. Mentally weak, tame, meek were the common words used by the Radio Tees commentary team. Body language poor second half. We deserved absolu...
I did hear a rumour at Wednesday’s match that Michael Carrick had been seen at Rockcliffe this week. Any truth in that,anybody? And is he in the runni...
Welcome back, John. Sorry to hear about your awful experience.
Excellent starter, OFB. As ever, many thanks. Boro did just enough to beat Brum on Wednesday, but it was by no means convincing. We’ll need to up our ...
I’ve been listening to the Boro Breakdown podcast. It’s very good analysis from 3 (young?) fans. This week’s cast, analysing the Wilder sacking, is ve...
Good! I sincerely hope we don’t appoint him.
@original-fat-bob Many thanks for your very thorough reply, OFB. Much appreciated. Really interesting. You don’t pull any punches and your argument...
Many fantastic contributions above, lads (and lasses?). Particular thanks to Andy for a superb opener. It’s a brilliant debate, which has highlighted ...
Boro’s official statement on the Wilder sacking is curt and very much to the point. It lacks grace, and definitely lacks any kind of acknowledgement o...
Bruce? Yer jokin arn yer? I wouldn’t have him in a lucky bag.
My grandson has just suggested Scott Parker. Not a guy I warm to - he’s a bit too Sathern, a bit too Cockney - but he did a sound job at Bournemout...
I would definitely consider Rob Edwards, as a young, forward-thinking manager. He did a fabulous job at Forest Green and was unlucky to be given the p...
Breaking- Wilder sacked! Wasn’t expecting that!
Plato On a previous thread I asked who you would want to see managing Boro. So who is this star with great ambition? And if he has great ambition, w...
I thought Wilder had seriously lost the plot when I saw his team selection yesterday. Now, following his comments to the media I’m starting to think h...
Dormo Just a point of correction. It was Hants who needed to score 138 to win, not Warwickshire. I agree with everything you’ve said. Yorkshire h...
My bet is Warwickshire will seek to pile on runs very quickly on the last day to try to force a win. But against a very strong Hampshire side, they’re...
Ken Philately will get you nowhere!
Btw, OFB That last post of mine is not meant as a criticism of you in any way. I’m just gobsmacked that your sources could have hinted at such attit...
@pedro and OFB I agree, Pedro. I can quite understand any cost-cutting. Boro made substantial losses during the Covid closure, and like most other ...
@original-fat-bob Indeed. And this is the same Steve Morison who led his side to a 3-2 away win earlier this week at much-fancied Middlesbrough, an...
So, it’s bottom 3 for the next couple of weeks. Ignominious. Going back to Selwynoz’s recent post about expectations, my view is that Boro should alwa...
Selwynoz A brilliant and thought-provoking post! I think that should really prompt some good debate on here. I’ll have a think and will perhaps resp...
Plato. I’d be very interested to know whom you’d want to appoint as Boro manager if we were to sack CW. You seem to be calling him a ‘time-expired m...
An excellent, insightful starter, Andy. Many thanks. I guess Saturday’s result will depend on which Boro turns up, or perhaps for how long the most...
