Disappointed.
I think Boro's putting Akpom on the Bench at this stage of the season is like England putting Kane on the Bench in the last group game where qualifica...
I think I messsed up on the last attempt to send a post so here goes again... I was going to say that at this stage we shouldn't be concerned which ...
@selwynoz - In my view momentum and confidence are very important in football. If your team is on a winning streak everyone would prefer to continue w...
Well, no time now for detailed analysis but that was certainly the proverbial game of two halves. In the first Hull City was the team playing the poss...
@exmil - whatever is best for you next year is fine by me! We could even have a "start of the season prediction" too. You know: Arsenal 80 points, ...
@jarkko and @exmil - I'm pleased to see that Jarkko has corrected his Sheff U v WBA entry in light of the comment from exmil. As a result of of Jarkko...
Nice one, Andy. Enjoyed reading that starter. John R - that is very good news. And whilst an interest in Boro is what draws us to these pages, the...
@exmil - No-one can criticise my skills in prediction. I accurately predicted my lowly position and, in my Part 3 entry, I referred to the possibility...
@clive-hurren - Clive, I think you have put only 4 results/games for Blackburn to play but others have 5. THAT IS NOT TO SAY THAT I HAVEN'T MADE MY O...
@exmil - EXMIL CHALLENGE 2023 - PART 3. Well, here goes (I normally try to work out the results, then type them wrongly by putting in the details of...
@jarkko - I was just about to make that point, Jarkko. Thank goodness we are not QPR. They must have had such high hopes, and now they will be gnawin...
@stircrazy -Thanks for that link to Arsenal's method of assessing possible transfer targets. Very interesting.
@clive-hurren - In some ways it really has not been my day, today. But only in some ways...
@original-fat-bob - SORRY, SORRY, SORRY... I have it in my calendar as Wednesday 19th April for the Hull game (ko 8pm). I KNEW it was that date but t...
FUTURE GAMES - In order to satisfy the requirements of SkyTV (and who can blame Sky for wanting to cover as many Boro games as possible, because goals...
@selwynoz ...AND would save a transfer fee!
Typo there (sorry). Goalscorers are HARDER to find and/or are more vital to success....(!!).
@deleriad - Good post. But I don't suppose even Boro's record-goal-scorer-in-living-memory is paid anything approaching the deal Steffen has from Man ...
That was the perfect start to a weekend. Mrs Dormo discharged from hospital following an operation on Tuesday (she's already looking much better than ...
@werdermouth - Your comments at 10.17pm: spot on! Agree every word.
Some really interesting and thought-provoking posts above. Thanks, fellow Boro supporters, for that! We REALLY need a win tonight in order to show, ...
SO MANY good posts above.
@andy - you have got these openers down to a "T" (or is it "Tee", or even "Tea"?). I have a certain amount of tepidation about the game in light of w...
@jarkko - 33 - a youngster. Ask Bob (or Ken)!
Can't wait any longer so here it is. Yorkshire CCC was a founder member of the formal County Championship (the dreaded cricket) in 1890, when formal ...
@clive-hurren @Jarkko @brissyred - Well, chaps, it's not one of those trick questions. You know (and I'll make this up as an example) "When did X clu...
@martin-bellamy - In my view, Martin, Woody was an excellent centre-half who was obviously good enough to get contracts at Leeds, Newcastle and Real M...
@exmil - Sorry about that mis-typing! I KNEW the Norwich match has been rearranged for Friday evening at 8pm as I had altered the date on my mobile ph...
