@paulinboro - I feel that an apology is due to you from Boro for that inadequate performance this afternoon. Driving up from Southampton is devotion a...
@jarkko - I will have a pint of what you're drinking, mate! And @PeterSurtees - nice post (not only about "Ghosts" which my family has watched and of ...
@werdermouth - excellent starter piece but, these days, we are learning to expect nothing less! A very enjoyable, if cheesy, read. I have just retur...
To pick up a few points raised above: after a disappointing result things can go one of two ways. Many people either want to vent their annoyance/ang...
Ah, well.... Watford 2-1 BORO (FT).
As requested Pedro! A GOAL! A two-yards toe-poke from Edmundson after 54 minutes. Thank goodness!
@pedro - Continued missing of chances can prove expensive. But if we get ONE, Watford will have to open up.
@original-fat-bob - I had to smile, OFB! "It's a sign!"
Good one, @Selwynoz. I got one of the 1967 scorers against Watford right - I had a feeling that Derrick Downing must have scored a trademark diving h...
@exmil - Can we all agree that any references I might make to the dates and kick-off times of BORO games on this site are "provisional" only? I mostly...
Without wishing to seem greedy, I hope that BORO can go on that "golden run of winning games" mentioned earlier, following Saturday's win at home to S...
Hackney! Yippee! WBA 0-1 BORO!
I can understand the nerves, @Powmill-Naemore. I share them. As for the line-up it would be pointless asking me to predict. I have now seen it. I ha...
@jarkko - I'd be very happy with the 2-1 win that I predicted but, since @Selwynoz asked, I WOULD take the 1-1 draw if such an outcome were to be offe...
Can I just say how enjoyable a read @powmil's Starter was, and all the replies so far? (Particular mention to be made of @OFB's throstling interject...
It has been a busy weekend but the football was, for once, good to watch. I thought BORO could easily have conceded a couple of goals and the Stoke ...
@jarkko - Well done on your Starter piece. A very good effort, filled with useful information, whatever the language! You put most of us on here to sh...
Eleven and a half years ago..! Swansea are now back with us in The Championship and Spurs remain in the Premier League but now with a world class sta...
@andy-r - Good to hear that you were there, too. I can't now remember who the others were. A lot of water has flowed under the bridge since then. Ma...
I suppose if I knew what the problem was, and what the solution is, I'd be getting a message from Steve Gibson to pop along for a glass of wine and a ...
@gt - I am not a convert to tippy-tappy football, of keep-possession-at-all-costs football. I don't take the view that Pep Guardiola is a prophet and ...
@gt - Well, I'm certainly scared about us....
And the scores from the jury in Helsinki are as follows....
I won't vent a lot of depressed, unhappy but hardly surprised, reaction to the Sunderland game. We'll just take that as read. I had hoped the stream/p...
The BBC Sport website has BORO with 63% possession and, to my surprise, mentions that the Sunderland keeper had one save to make from a BORO shot on t...
Very disappointing result. "So much of the ball, so much territory, but they couldn't make it count" (per BBC commentary). How often might we hear tha...
It is said on BBC Tees that, with only 5 minutes to play, BORO has not yet drawn a save out of the Sunderland keeper despite having had lots of posses...
Maybe the thought-waves were coming in from all over the north! Better some changes be made at the 63 minute mark than after 73 or 80 minutes....
The fog has lifted on the hill-tops here, at Grinton but not in my heart. At half time I agree with Werder: sounds like the usual loads of possession ...
