Derby look as though they could win this without too much trouble. They are much more dangerous on the break and from set pieces than we are trying to...
A lovely opener, Bob. Imaginative, funny and informative. Great to have such a different take. One of the glories of the blog. Many thanks especially ...
@rich-llewelyn-evans Thanks Rich. I thought your earlier post on the "calculated" (ie bleedin' great) risk of the new appointment was spot on.
Many thanks to you all for your birthday wishes, which have really enhanced what has been a splendid day, now to be rounded off with a televised match...
Selwyn, that was absolutely brilliant. I'll warrant that you will not find a better preview of the game from any other source. The blog is really ...
There was one aspect of the Oxford performance that was a distinct improvement on our previous displays and showed that Adi is working on the right li...
@pedro Hackney still M-o-M for me, always driving us forward covering every inch of the pitch and behind almost every decent Boro move. Whittaker...
We are losing because we failed to close down a wide man. Brittain stayed at home allowing an unmarked winger miles of space and when Oxford score Bri...
Best of luck, Bob. I hope your spell out on loan is brief and that you are back on our books early in the New Year. We need you for our promotion run-...
Thanks for the treat, Werder. As clever, funny, intelligent and beautifully written as we have come to expect.
The main task for the new boss was always going to be to get our forwards, and especially Scott's new young signings ,bedded in and firing by being br...
Powmill Could I persuade you to bump me up if I had the Edwards forecast in a double with Hellberg to be gone by Easter? And a treble with Scott to...
Brilliant Powmill, and thanks for the update and all of your hard work. Congrats to Bob for achieving such a runaway lead, and to your good self for...
I have always thought that some of the leading candidates for the job, such as Rodgers, O' Neil, Gerrard etc would be unlikely to accept a situation w...
@powmillnaemore Your excellent AI summary of the Boro's managerial situation presents the best evidence that I have yet seen for AI replacing journ...
As usual, I find Werder's comments and the discussion by everyone else on here to be far more informative than the re-heated rumours put out as news i...
@martin-bellamy .....if there were anyone else on it
@martin-bellamy I did something in some ways a bit more reprehensible than suggesting Edwards be sacked a few weeks ago. I predicted he would be ...
I may be completely mistaken, but if I am not, then Kieran Scott's apparent absence from yesterday's must-attend-in-solidarity game surely requires so...
@rich-llewelyn-evans Rich, just in case you happen to wonder why I had to edit a 3 word comment, it was because I addressed you ( as probably only ...
@rich-llewelyn-evans Excellent post, Rich.
@peter-surtees Agreed, Peter, a very good interview. Full of good sense.
I have to say that I gave my all today. 200% Exhausted by the end, but still heading out every cross and fully committed to every tackle. I was ...
Great atmosphere produced by us all sticking together with the team and fans as one in terms of energy and commitment. McGree a definite presence an...
May I just say that, amongst all of the very informed discussion over the past few days, Werder's regular monitoring of the situation has shown a degr...
Werder's words, quoted above, summarise the key point for me. Of course, we all of us will put our own family first. And who knows what complication...
@andy-r Make that two of us.
Now here's a funny thing... I did make the pre-season prediction- bold (or rash) by any standards- that Rob Edwards wouldn't last in the job beyond ...
Thanks Powmill for a very polished and thoughtful opener. Couldn't disagree with your main line of argument, and I appreciated the background on Birmi...
Never in doubt
