@exmil - Great idea!

@jarkko - The tickets for the away game at Sheffield Wednesday are not available yet. Just keep an eye on the Boro website to see when they become av...

@jarkko - Me? Showing bias? Totally objective, Sir! Are you coming to the UK with Eija? And what are the dates? Depending on the weather and yo...

@martin-bellamy - 1096 versus 1209AD. All the fault of a riot and subsequent hanging/lynching of some students following the death of a woman in Oxfo...

@jarkko - Apparently they are banned from the site. Something to do with their version of blue being FAR too dark.

@lenmasterman - Ah, yes! I'd forgotten to mention the bit about the "long throws". It is really more than ridiculous for some "football purists" to ...

@original-fat-bob - Are we on the same tablets, because my first few paragraphs typed in response have just vanished into the ether? Let's go again. ...

@jarkko - There WAS an Anglo-Italian Cup and Boro played in it three times: 1970, 1993-94 and 1994-95. However Boro was eliminated in the Group Stage...

@john-richardson - This current Boro squad would represent the Premier League's weakest ever team if (by some absolute miracle) promotion were to be a...

It was hardly worth the effort to listen on BBC Tees but at least I was able to watch Italy v Ireland on TV with the sound turned down! No shots on ...

Can Leeds Utd successfully bottle it AGAIN? My son described Luton Town v Boro as the resistable force meeting the moveable object. NOW for the ru...

Mrs Dormo was much amused yesterday when, talking about this weekend, she detected "unrestrained joy" at my realisation that I didn't have to go to Th...

Thanks for the Match Preview, Len. The previews are better than Boro's performances on the pitch most weeks and yours proves the point. If Boro coul...

@werdermouth - Funnily enough if anyone, for example in the pub tonight, asks me how Boro had got on yesterday, I'd probably say either "Won - yippee!...

I suppose the situation may be explained as follows. The 5 consecutive defeats didn't define Boro as a poor team (even though it might have felt so a...

@werdermouth - It is things like this that amuse me. (What did I do there? "IS" with thingS!). In some countries there are bodies which have been s...

@powmillnaemore - MFC's Finnish Ambassador is a bit of a star, isn't he?

@jarkko - Colleague who is half Finnish. He might even have attended college in Finland. But at least Boro snaffled three points last night in a m...

Good morning, fellow Diasborians and thank you for the various kind comments. I was able to dip into the Blog just before bed last night, after a da...
