Great news, Dormo, and a proper week-end tonic whatever the Boro's result.

Selwyn, Just to echo everyone else's response that you have produced a superb leader. Well organised, very thorough and with enough detail to keep u...

Greenwood had another good game yesterday and his emergence has been an unexpected bonus of McGree's unfortunate absence. He was certainly a M-o-M c...

A thrilling, skilful and entertaining game with Plymouth playing well in the first half, scoring two well worked goals, and going in 2-1 in front, pe...

I recall that 1954 game, the first ever against Plymouth as mentioned by Powmill. It was memorable for two reasons. It was Boro's first game in the ...

What a great opener, Powmill. The combination of thorough research and readable, entertaining style is difficult to pull off, but you achieved it br...

Agree with Selwyn and KP's assessments.

Really first-class opener, Bob, and very informative. Really enjoyed it.

Boro had no answer to Alex Neil's game plan to press high, counter-attack at pace and create overlaps against our full-backs. The half-time lead could...

So sorry to hear your sad news, Jarkko

@mw-in-darwin and selwynoz Thanks for the updates and corrections. The goalkeeping situation does look a concern

@malcolm Not sure whether Carrick is expressing his own views above or telling us what the club's policy will be regarding any free agent, or other...

Typically excellent opener, Andy, with a very shrewd assessment of the Norwich game. Stoke appeared to be one of the easiest games in our current ru...

Terrible news for Tommy and for all Boro fans, especially after such a fine display last Saturday Tommy's presence will be greatly missed. Right b...

The loss of Hackney for the next few games is a blow, but another yellow card and suspension were just around the corner anyway. In fact Hackney would...

Interesting that I had not seen either Clive's or Dormo's posts, but repeated points they made almost word for word

Not a vintage performance but Boro showed plenty of grit and a good spirit with a limited squad. The original XI stayed on until the 80th minute, ever...

Me too Andy. Hope you are well on the way to recovery

Thanks for the opener, Bob. Brilliant work, especially at such short notice.

Warm welcome back, Jed. I remember your previous posts very well. You greatly enhanced this forum, so I know that we are in for some well considered...

Two areas of real quality for Boro yesterday. The midfield pairing of Barlaser and Hackney was the fulcrum of the team dominating the middle of the ...

Thanks Werder. Full of admiration and gratitude for all of your hard work and skill in providing us all with such a great blog.

@forever-dormo and Mrs Dormo Best wishes to you both

@werdermouth and Jarkko Amazing knowledge. Worked in Estonia for UNESCO, but knew little of all this. Certainly didn't know about the renaming o...

It's 'hear, hear" Jarkko ie listen to what is being said, though "here, here", ie I agree, here, with what is being said, is a common mistake because ...

@selwynoz One of my favourite TV shows used to be Aerobics Oz-style which I used to watch whilst reclining on a sofa. It consisted of attractive...

MW Oh, no. It seems that wherever you go in this world, you are never more than a few metres from a Boro fan. But what a tribute this thread has...

I'm greatly enjoying this thread. So is my wife. She now wants me to book a holiday in Cadiz and Jerez It's cost me a bottle of sherry. Just ...

@peter-surtees Don't worry, I got kicked out of the cubs. Deemed a disgrace to the woggle.
