@jarkko As I wrote last night only Craig Hignett making 12 in the history of MFC.

Another set of results last night that defy all logic with Millwall getting that 2-0 away win that I incorrectly forecast against Boro. Bournemouth st...

@grovehillwallah Thanks. Werdermouth pointed out about this site about 2 or 3 years ago but it doesn’t give the timings of goals scored from the d...

I’ve not been able to find any proof of a Boro player scoring a hat-trick in the first 20 minutes of a match, but that doesn’t mean it hasn’t occurred...

The Boro website has given three examples of Boro scoring 3 goals in the first 20 minutes of a match but it will be no surprise to hear that as far as...

Thanks to Redcar Red for his excellent report of the match as I didn’t know the result until later in the day. Whilst I’m pleased and surprised that B...

@john-richardson Beware of the 9 match run of no wins, it can also work in reverse as 9 unbeaten matches. I’m going for a 2-0 win for Millwall but w...

KENNETH JOSEPH ALFORD 1881/1945 Alford was born in Ratcliff, London and because he was born within the sound of Bow Bells was regarded as a cockney....

I’m all for Kevin Sinfield being awarded a knighthood in the New Years Honours List for his 7 marathon runs for his friend Rob Burrow and Motor Neuron...

@john-richardson Perhaps we should redefine the word ‘strikers’ as far as Assombalonga and Akpom are concerned as it sounds more appropriate to st...

SERGEI VASILYEVIZ RACHMANINOFF 1873/1943 Sergei Rachmaninoff was born in Moscow in 1873, his birth being registered in Staraya but raised up in Oneg...

To be fair I didn’t think Preston were a mediocre team. They had pace whilst Boro on the attack were ponderous and forever slowing the game down. We n...

The scoreline even flattered Boro

I’ve got time on my hands as long as I can keep awake. As soon as I switch on the television within half an hour I’ve dozed off, even when watching Ma...

@plato It’s a shame I haven’t got statistics of how many misses each player made. I’m guessing that would prove your point.

Werdermouth Oh no not again! I posted an article on Rachmaninoff and it was complete at 11.35 pm so I then searched this part of the forum to check ...

I know few Boro fans like Leeds (neither do Cas fans for that matter) but to see Kevin Sinfield ex Leeds Rhinos stand off half raise £1,000,000 for Mo...

Very sad to hear of the death of raconteur and BBC golf commentator Peter Alliss at the age of 89. He maybe was outspoken at times, but also had the c...

@jarkko Bernie Slaven’s goalscoring record with Boro was 118 in 307 matches (35%) whilst Assombalonga’s is 31.6% and dropping. Considering Britt is...

I’ve just watched Verdi’s ‘La Traviata’ on Sky Arts channel from Sydney Harbour whilst doing the ironing. Whilst admittedly it’s a great setting for o...

Thanks to Redcar Red for his accurate assessment of not only the worst display of the season, but a reminder of how bad Boro were in the days under Ma...

Does anyone have a breakdown of the number of penalty points accrued by Boro players for yellow/red cards this season and when the next cut off date i...

RALPH VAUGHAN WILLIAMS 1872/1958 Vaughan Williams was born in Down Ampney, Gloucestershire in 1872 but when his father died the whole family moved t...

Boro’s away record overall at Stoke doesn’t make pleasant reading with only 11 wins and 10 draws in 47 encounters. However since moving to the Britann...

I stupidly asked this question whilst still on the classical music section. However perhaps this is the proper section to talk about dementia in Sport...

Apparently there is a problem with some Apple 3 iPads using WPA/ WPA 2 (TKIP) with a recommendation to configure the router to WPA 2(AES) or WPA 3. It...

On a different subject now. In view of dementia in later life do folks think it should now be made mandatory for footballers and rugby players to wear...

It’s happened again, cut short this time after the first paragraph. I think I need to move on.

Werdermouth and GHW Thanks. Fortunately I had written the script roughly in longhand so can copy it, but just wondered why suddenly having logged in...

Werdermouth Yesterday I completed an article about the life of Ralph Vaughan Williams on the classical music page but it didn’t appear as after co...
