Since my own view is that on an occasional basis The Gazette's Boro reporter is the recipient of unattributed briefings from the Boro's Director of Fo...
Welcome back to the leader spot, Werder, with a typically clever, informative and witty piece. The Venn diagrams of those who appreciate the range a...
Just a thought on Doak. He was brilliant again last night but was operating with a limited palette. Burnley cut off his supply line and doubled u...
Dijksteel outstanding and fully deserved his m-o-m award. Was always in the game Personally gutted that my forecast was foiled by a goalkeeping erro...
Though Burnley have had most of the ball I fancied my 0-3 was on after our opening goal and a near miss from Doak. But the Burnley lobbed equaliser pu...
@werdermouth Agreed Werder. We will have injuries and saying that we have cover for strikers in Burgzorg and Forss doesn't cut it in my view, any m...
@paulinboro ... and things change so quickly. A mere month ago Boro fans and, no doubt, Steve Gibson and the recruitment team will have been ruin...
Any Boro fan who wishes to glimpse behind the curtain to discover a little about the internal dynamics, tensions and politics of the club could do wor...
A brilliant and very well written opener, Selwyn. I don't think anyone could disagree with your analysis for which you produce a great deal of well-ma...
Giles's 7 or 8 assists are often mentioned as something we have not managed to replicate. True enough, but I always felt that those assists need to ...
Great news exmil, couldn't be happier for you and it would be great if Boro could bring your week to a fitting conclusion by winning in style Thanks...
Thanks Powmill for producing such a good leader in the short gap between matches during which there have been major change of perspective seemingly ev...
So what went wrong? You can say with some justification, as Boroexile and John have done that it's the age-old problem of Typical Boro. But teams ...
I'll second that
Bob, Happy to do the lead for the Plymouth game if it's any help
Thanks Martin for your very interesting opener. As someone who is (ahem) mature to the point of decrepitude I can recall 21 of those players on your l...
Bob,, I'lm happy to fill in for the Plymouth review for 21/12/24 if that helps.
A significant watershed was the appointment of Chris Jones as Head of Recruitment. Before that it was difficult to find anything other than negative...
Bob, You weren't wrong but absolutely right Your post saying that you didn't like Azaz was obviously precisely the kick in the backside that Finn...
That 6-1 Luton game at Kenilworth Road in 1960 was indeed memorable. I was at Uni and travelled down with my best mate Dave Bingham, who many years l...
Nice one, Bob. Original, clever, funny and a very good read. I went to see the Boro play at Oxford once and it was a very weird experience. In those...
I'm afraid that I will have to take my leave of this thread as I am having an early winter break. Sadly I won't get to see the Luton game, as I will b...
@exmil Thanks exmil. It was extraordinary to see Doughty hobble back on even though so badly injured and I assume it must have been because Luton m...
Agree about Morris. My MoM too. Some great play from us at the beginning of the second half, but continued sloppiness at the back allowed them back...
We may be 0-2 up, but we are not playing nearly as well as we have done in games we have lost. Our passing is off, there is little cohesion and had i...
I have never been convinced that apostrophes are really of any great importance, but it's probably not an exaggeration to say that the future of the e...
Very good Dormo There are a couple of common problems for writers who would never dream of using the grocer's apostrophe. The first is the use of ...
A lovely piece, Jarrko. Very well-written, interesting and entertaining. And very sensible on the Boro's current situation. I remember the Arsenal g...
Nightmare half for Boro and Hackney in particular. Even before his sending off Hackney almost let Coventry in three times in the first 12 minutes as ...
