RE: Sheffield Wednesday v Boro

@redcarred i know whom you mean by ‘the very tip of the team.’ But are you referring to Bettinelli at the other end? I have to admit I have some con...

RE: Sheffield Wednesday v Boro

I see NW has blamed the pitch for Boro booting the ball long all the time! Now come on Neil! We may be naive as fans, but we’re not stupid! We ...

RE: Sheffield Wednesday v Boro

Hugely disappointing. We had 15 crosses in the first half, but Opta rated just two of them effective. Far too many were blasted over the top of the fe...

Glad to hear Mrs Red is well, RR, and that she is keeping you on your toes! I was very worried at the start of yesterday’s game. For 25 minute...

RE: Birmingham v Boro

While I think a draw away from home is generally a good point, I think I’d be disappointed if we ‘only’ draw tomorrow. We’ve only won 1 game away all ...

RE: Match Report: Boro 1 v 0 Luton

Great win last night against a very good Swansea side. Normal service was resumed. Apart from Akpom, who had a mediocre game, I gave everyone really h...

RE: Match Report: Boro 3 - 0 Derby

Spot on, GHW. For me, the most positive feature of the game (3 goals apart - THREE - woohoo!) was NW’s substitutions. He realised quickly that Derby’s...

I’ll add my thanks for a great opener, Werder. Let’s hope the orange one is a great finisher - in other words, he’s absolutely finished. We had a ...

RE: Boro v Coventry

Thanks Werder. I enjoyed that. I’m not one for predictions, but I will be very disappointed if we don’t beat Coventry by two clear goals. Anyth...

RE: When will we get to see a football match "in the flesh"?

@redcarred I note that you hinted at Boris Johnson and ‘leader’ being one and the same person. You cannot be serious, as McEnroe once shouted!
