As for Famara Diedhiou, he is still yet to sign a new deal at Bristol City and is constantly been linked with Boro. I do not know if he suits Warnoc...
Still thinking Boro as a grave yard for strikers. In the Champioship recently, we had a chap called Martin Braithwaite. He was not able to fit in to o...
@andy-r Now I see why I liked the match until the first goal. Barnsley were hoofing the ball more than we did. Hence our play did not look as bad as i...
Think if we had someone like Jim Platt or Steven Pears in goal this season. With Platt, we would be in the top six now. But the bigger if is if we c...
I don't think we hoofed the ball up field as much as in the previous games. In fact I think we matched them until the howler first goal. That was unbe...
Now when the season has petered out for Boro, I will go for a typical result. Barnsley 1 Boro 3. McNair, Kebano and Bola scoring. We could play like S...
@deleriad Thanks, you said it as I was thinking. Your eye for football is better than mine and your English more so. Up the Boro!
@andy-r Or Warnock has ordered to hoof the ball over the midfield. When NW joined Boro, my son said that he won't watch many Boro games as NW play...
@original-fat-bob I will watch those games on TV as they'll be played at the Riverside. Do they train on Rockliffe Park? All said was the England ...
@selwynoz a good post. Fully agree. Up the Boro!
I cannot see how Akpom can get more points than Britt. Both been terrible or we have played badly as a team in the final third except Watmore. But eve...
I was hoping to see Boro fighting during these last two matches (and Millwall) and next at Barnsley. To try to get in there, play-offs. But seeing a...
I did nearly the same until my daughter reminded me two hours before the actual kick-off time. One advantage of the lock-down is that I have been able...
PS. I have watched a Boro match together with Jim Platt, too. I had a meal with him pre match as well as OFB was there, too. Both great gentleman help...
@ken I keep in touch with James (his wife and I call him as James). As Boro played a pre-season match against Reipas of Lahti, Finland in 1970's, Jame...
@k-p-in-spain Ithink Kebano is ace. Up the Boro!
Hoofing the ball all the time without a big centre forward. WHY? Wingers (occatinally at least) centering the ball for big centre forward that is no...
@powmillnaemore Sorry, I have missed your post on me earlier. Now read it and I am feeling good. Accepted as a Boro fan. A bit Teessider in heart or...
Paddy McNair and George Saville both featured as Northern Ireland picked up the first point of their World Cup qualification campaign against Bulgaria...
Thank you, Bob for opening the debate for tomorrow's match. You indeed got carried away with Britt, but that was the crerry on the top of the preview...
Two nights any more! And Boro will be back. I am quite exited now. We have three must win matches but we are the underdogs now. We need results but...
I don't know much about the papers themselves, but I could do the chauffeur job for Steve. Especially taking him to the stadium and wait him on the st...
@ken Excellent. Gordon Jones is more like a name from the Boro history but at least I was able to see Craggsy. Not often as I live abroad. And reading...
@k-p-in-spain Same feeling for me, too. Even Famara Diedhiou, the big Bristol City striker does not sound exciting. His goal scoring record is not a...
@ken thanks for sharing. I wonder how Bernie (or Bernard as his real first name is) would fit in to the current Boro team under Warnock. I would ima...
@ken I look forward to Bernie article (they are as good as any on newspapers, Ken). As a defender I have even played against Bernie once in April 20...
And one more thing about the top scorers at Boro. Britt has a good - even excellent considering Boro - record at Boro for the first two seasons. One...
David Amstrong was one of my all time favourites. I have met his mother and sister in the early 1980's after a match with a cuppa of tea. I have also ...
@ken Thank you for the complete list of top scorers above. I remembered Ricard scoring 20 a season but 15 goal a season at Boro is always a good achie...
Bernie Slaven was the last player to score 20-plus league goals in a season for Middlesbrough according to the Gazette. Even someone who managed 15 ...
