Mind, if we think it’s been a depressing weekend for Boro it has been an extraordinary weekend on the continent. First of all the mighty Paris St Germ...
To be fair we were a tad unlucky yesterday as acknowledged by Grant McCann. City’s bad luck against Blackpool was compensated by their good fortune ag...
Once again we can’t score goals, only 5 clubs have scored fewer than Boro. An average of one goal per match and a projection of 50 points for the seas...
@ Andy R Well McClaren did become the England manager, but when he came down to pitch level will always be remembered and ridiculed as ‘the fella wi...
Just thinking back to Christian Ronaldo advocating people to drink a pint of water instead of cola, I wonder how many Diasborians remember the slogan ...
@ Clive Hurren Yes, those were the days when even the early rounds of the FA Cup often attracted the highest attendances of the season even though n...
Whilst watching rugby matches either League or Union I’ve often wondered why the head coaches usually watch the play sitting in the stand with an iPad...
Who would Diasborians prefer as a character - Christiano Ronaldo or Wayne Rooney?
Isn’t it time that removing one’s shirt is deemed not to be a yellow card offence? How that equates to the same punishment as a foul seems ridiculous ...
I’ve always been intrigued why the official name of the city of Hull should be named after a river, so I did some research this morning. Starting with...
Sorry! I posted my last comment before reading the similar comments from John Richardson and KP, though it shows how nervous some of us are about thi...
@original-fat-bob But don’t forget that Reading had an even worse injury list and how that finished.
I think that Hull City may be a better team than their league position suggests. Any team that gains promotion having scored 80 goals and conceded jus...
@Jarkko & Clive Yes Clive is correct about Boro’s attendances this season, an average of 21,079. However Boro’s average attendances as a Second...
Well eventually I managed to watch ‘Strictly Come Dancing’, got the shopping done before it started to rain, and then did the ironing although I had t...
Having just watched an amazing exhibition of golf from the USA in the Ryder Cup with a young side most of whom were rookies oblivious to the stigma of...
I suppose most of you Diasborians can recall the Likely Lads episode when Terry and Bob were determined to avoid the result of an England match as the...
Not much of a Boro interest from me this weekend with the Ryder Cup in full swing so won’t be watching the match. Probably a wise choice anyway as Bor...
JAMES PETER GREAVES 1940/2021 Just to interrupt the postings about Warnock and Boro for awhile I’d just like to write a few comments about the late ...
I know that Neil Warnock enjoyed yesterday’s match but not the result. It takes me back to the 50s when I was a child. Disappointed when Boro lost, bu...
At least Strictly Come Dancing might keep us entertained for the Autumn!
By the way, 2-0 wins for both Boro and Pools today - Up the Boro, and up the Pools!
Breakfast is the most important meal of the day after all it is what it says - breaking a fast, as long as it’s not a full English breakfast. Gary Pla...
From a player who once had the longest recorded throw-in in football measured at 152 feet, to a manager of Hartlepool who looks like breaking another ...
A draw for Forest isn’t going to help them too much, they need a win to kick-start their season and I think they’ll get it. I get the feeling that man...
I think that some of us underestimate our opponents. Was I the only one who thought Coventry would win 2-0. Nottingham Forest are now due a win whilst...
Just to add that Arsenal have no divine right not to be relegated this season. They never gained promotion from the Second Division to the First, but ...
In all honesty I think that Hartlepool have a better chance of reaching the Division 2 playoffs than Boro have of reaching the Championship playoffs, ...
If I were a Coventry fan I too would be confident of beating Boro especially as the Sky Blues are now firmly ensconced in their own city. I think that...
