@philip-of-huddersfield Please give Ken my best wishes, he's a fighter and I pray he keeps on fighting. Your contributions during the yearly tumblew...
I still feel fed-up about the result but in a way I expected it. I'm not being a pariah but fairy tales don't really happen, well not to the Boro anyw...
Ken, That is an excellent book, a recommended read for anyone from the North East. On the subject of Tyne Tees Television my mum used say they shoul...
Old Fit Bob, Great stuff as always, a compelling read to say the least. No forecasts from me for Wednesday, I don't want to put the hex, pox or mock...
@Malcolm I'm in the same state, our loss of form has destroyed my confidence, injuries and the prospect of a Tees Wear derby if we get through the nex...
A big match tomorrow and I'm assuming the DiasBoro default position. I'll be behind the couch, ear plugs in, under a blanket with a couple of beers. S...
Sorry OFB, The name stays, it's changed to Old Fit Bob. UTB, John
So much for me hoping for no injuries. I should just keep quiet. UTB, John
Today a good result for me would be no injuries and no risks with partially fit players. I reckon Boro could easily win with Monday's team sharpening ...
Ken, I can't know how you feel but I think I have a little idea. The waking up at night in the small hours where your imagination seems to run riot ...
Andy, An excellent headline article as always, thank you. For this game and any prior to the actual play-offs I intend to jinx nothing and will simp...
@andy-r Steffen seemed seriously distracted, I don't think he saw the header. UTB, John
Thanks for the support fellows of the Diasboro, it's much appreciated to read and see plus it's psychologically strengthening. Many, many thanks. ...
Thanks Andy, a great headliner yet again. All in all it's been a good few days. A great result against Norwich, no better than great, utterly brilli...
I've just watched the match and there's really nothing to say about that defensive display that hasn't already been said, apart from the fact I agree ...
Andy, Thank you for a fine opening piece that sums Boro's situation up nicely, as Captain mainwaring would have said, "well done that man". If the c...
OFB, Thanks for the fine opener, the brain fog is obviously clearing whereas mine comes and goes, a bit like swirling mist! Here's hoping Boro are foc...
What is going on? I took the Terrier out and we were winning 0-1, I get back and it's 3-1! Bloody hell, Sheffield will be happy at what I'd hate to ca...
Andy,As always, thanks for a great opener and thanks to Werder for his continued efforts to sort us all out, obviously sorting us out in the nicest po...
@werdermouth, Thank you there seems to be new plug-ins added two or three times a week, I have started to get a lot of Spam, which is easily deleted ...
@werdermouth My blog is a Wordpress platform and has been trouble free for about six years. At the moment I can't get into it to post and I need to...
@forever-dormo An enjoyable look into an away match and all that goes with it. Well done to them both and as you say they were very complimentary abou...
@original-fat-bob, Goalkeepers in a green wooly and also polo neck. Those were the days. UTB, John
Evening all, as Dixon used to say every Saturday evening. That's for those of us who remember the programme. No predictions for me, as always, just tr...
Mr Parker's Dog, Wilder and Assombalonga coming back to haunt us? You are definitely a true born supporter with that level of uneasiness, good to he...
Andy, A fine headliner, a lot of points well raised and discussed, thank you for your efforts and well done. We all worry about 'Typical Boro', th...
@original-fat-bob I'll bring a bottle or two for you and your good lady. ATB, UTB John
@peasepudinperth I'm with you on that one. The blog, as I recovered from a twelve and a half hour operation and six weeks of radio therapy has been ...
OFB, Thank you for a fine starter article, great work. Good to hear the brain fog is clearing or has cleared. I'm still getting side -effects of rad...
