@forever-dormo I agree with all you’ve written. As far as penalties are concerned, I suspect you’re right about referees expecting him to dive - unfor...

I’ve just read the BBC’s report and they only credit TC with one assist. Still a better performance though - next step, score a goal.

@malcolm Yes, he looked better in that formation, although I think he should have passed the ball before he was brought down in the box. Do we thin...

Is this the turn around of our scoring fortunes or is Hull’s defence hopeless tonight? I’ve not seen us play as many long balls behind another team’...

Weather report from the borders of East & North Yorkshire: Ive just got back in from walking Ralf and the rain is starting. On our way back from...

@original-fat-bob I think for run of the mill throw ins, close inspection is less crucial but for long throws it should definitely be policed in some ...

@selwynoz Now that’s one that I have seen, but I’d forgotten it was one of Stoppard’s.

@lenmasterman Tom Stoppard’s works have somehow largely passed me by. I’m aware of Rosencrantz and Guildenstein are Dead but have never seen it. Time ...

There’s been a lot of talk recently about the resurgence of the set piece in the game this season. Suddenly, corners have become more of an art form a...

A first rate starter, Clive, full of info and extremely entertaining - the quality of writing on here remains astonishingly high. I’m hoping for a ...

@forever-dormo Have you got any of those special mushrooms left, FD?

I’ve only seen very brief highlights on Sky on my phone but a win’s a win and secures our second spot. Good to see Whitaker scoring again. How did ...

Hull have beaten Stoke. We need to win today.

@werdermouth 🎵Andy R, he’s one of our own🎵

Thanks OFB and well done for putting together a starter at the moment. I fancy us to win on Saturday although who’ll score our goal(s) is anyone’s gue...

@malcolm I’d say what defined the three strikers you named, was their ability to be in the right place at the right time and the composure to put the ...

Having slept since last night’s game, I’ve reflected on our performance. As good as it was, it’s obvious that we need a massive improvement up front -...

I think that’s as well as I’ve seen Boro play so far this season. On a different day we’d have won.

And to think that there are those who believe Conway should be leading the line for Scotland. I think he needs a rest when Strelec is fit again. Lo...

@lenmasterman Wishing you the happiest of happy birthdays, Len. As a very shy person, I appreciate your comments that shy bairns do have merit. As ...

Thanks for a very thorough and informative starter, @selwynoz. I watched some of the Coventry/WBA game and the Sky Blues looked full of confidence, ...

@werdermouth What will concern me, is the blame the new manager will accrue if our strikers continue to underperform. He’s only got the same material ...

@werdermouth I’ve just watched the short highlights - does anyone think Morris will ever have a shot on target? They must practise shooting in trainin...

@pedro Whilst I hear what you’re saying, it’s difficult, on the one hand, to criticise Scott for the attacking signings, whilst on the other, praising...

@original-fat-bob Good luck in the Toon, OFB - don’t get too close to the Dark Side, we need you backing the Boro.

@rich-llewelyn-evans It is, what it is, I guess - I’m sure we’ll all get behind him.

Careful, you don’t mangel your words there, @OFB - I’ll continue to rutabaga for the Boro.

Thanks for that Werder - as impressive as it was humorous, and hugely entertaining on a wet and sleety, North Yorkshire morning. It’s good to have ...

@original-fat-bob I suspect KH will be hungrier to succeed and take this opportunity than OGS would. I’m sure we’ll all get behind him if he’s the o...

@werdermouth Yes, I read that and thought it was utter nonsense.
