@k-p-in-spain - Nice to know that it's not only Our Heroes who are punched in the face by possession and other match stats.
@jarkko - That is witchcraft....
@exmil - I agree. There is time for a few more twists and turns before this season's Championship promotion race arrives at the finishing line. And...
@pedro - I think football supporters also look at this in a partisan way. It's fine for one's own team to "manage the game" but not fine for the oppo...
Boro's recent home form is a concern. Draws against Leicester, Oxford and now against Bristol City, with a defeat recorded against Charlton as the thi...
Well, here we go. Today could be the day Boro gets the train back on the rails. Boro could end the day still in second place and confidence will retu...
Great Match Preview, @Jarkko. I HOPE that Boro can "come good" tomorrow. An early goal by Boro which would lift the tension and oblige Bristol to com...
@martin-bellamy - I agree, Martin. Firstly it's as if the referee and assistant referees either don't look at throw ins any more or they may have "fo...
@jarkko - I hope things are fine up there in the frozen North. I hope you enjoyed your after-sport sauna. I have just checked and see that Helsinki...
@pedro - I agree, Pedro. I would have brought Browne on for Whittaker, but with the aim of going where Hackney was playing (so Browne and Morris woul...
@martin-bellamy - I agree with you. I suspect that I would be more likely to score from a shot than Morris. How many games now, and how many shots, ...
If your team has a tactic and it isn't working at home (because things seem to fine away from home), you have choices: 1) Continue to pursue that ta...
Sorry, Gents, for the prediction I made in a recent post. Far too optimistic compared with what I saw on the pitch at The Riverside. I won't go on. ...
@lenmasterman - I hope you are right about tonight, Len. I will go for 3-0 in order to cheer up OFB (and because it seems about right for tonight if ...
@martin-bellamy - A hit. A very palpable hit!
That was a tense evening in front of the TV where Son-and-heir was watching Newcastle against Barcelona (and against the referee according to him), se...
Clive Hurren has scored a hat trick with his Match Preview. An enjoyable read. I enjoy this Blog so much! I think if I'd been scoring 44 goals a s...
@martin-bellamy and @lenmasterman - My understanding is that Luke Ayling has a bit of a speech impediment/stutter. As many do, especially when in adul...
@k-p-in-spain - Without wishing to identify too clearly as a Neil Diamond or a Monkees fan, I have to confess that I'M A BELIEVER, and not a trace of ...
If anyone is unhappy with THAT performance and result, they must be very hard to please. I am sure OFB would be happy with the extra goal. Unless he'...
@stircrazy - Thanks for that link as I hadn't been able to watch the game. Great goal!
A surprise to see the Starting XI. Malanda has been a giant, as well as a class act, since joining Boro. However the last game showed he isn't perfect...
Good Luck, Bob, for next week. As for today's results, I can live with Coventry winning. They are not home and hosed yet, but we should concentrate ...
Thanks, Andy, for your Match Preview. No sign there of its having been quickly "bashed out". Perhaps you like to perform against the clock? Well done...
@exmil - Thanks for that. Diary suitable amended. Basically it would appear all Boro's games are to be shown live on TV and, if Boro is promoted this ...
@exmil - Never be surprised by ANY decison made by FIFA. The organisation is locked in a long-term competition with UEFA and the International Olympi...
@lenmasterman - Hear, hear, Len!
@simonfallaha - Promotion with Boro would give Sarmiento a magnificent hat-trick to look back on when his career comes to a close. We haven't seen mu...
Well, gentlemen, that was EXACTLY what the doctor ordered. Three goals, three points and a return to form. I have read the comments posted after th...
