@forever-dormo You’ve travelled forward in time again, haven’t you? I’ve checked all my calendars and it’s definitely 30th December. You’re right abou...

I did consider him as an option but he’d have to prove his long term fitness, I guess. I’m not sure how much of a communicator or organiser he is thou...

@pedro I just don’t see Hackney as captain material, although who should wear the armband is anyone’s guess.

@powmillnaemore Definitely - he just doesn’t look up to this level. He seems to go missing in action and can’t play the quick passing game we use. Rar...

Fair points, KP - maybe I’m clutching at straws.

I seem to recall @ofb in an earlier post, suggesting that SG draft in a wise old head to give MC a bit of a back up. Could there be anyone better qual...

@k-p-in-spain Let’s hope we’re not relying on that route to success.

Well done @FDormo - it’s tricky doing a starter when we’ve only just played our opponents, so I doff my cap (and slap my thigh) to your pantomime mast...

The standard of discourse on this Forum, particularly after a match as disappointing as this one, is way beyond what you’d read on other online fan co...

I forgot that I could have watched the game on the red button, which was probably a blessing. As others have said, OFB having a great day is far more ...

I go out for 40 minutes at 3-0 and come back to 3-3. What on earth is happening?

Some Xmas reading from the Guardian:/p>

Merry Xmas everyone.

@forever-dormo Don’t go jumping the gun. We’ve got to beat Sheffield Wednesday before we beat Burnley. 😉

Thanks for a great starter, @Jarkko. Have a fantastic Xmas with your family.

@forever-dormo cf Afonso Alves?

I mentioned in an earlier post how surprised I am every year, that games over the Xmas period produce more than the average number of goals. I can’t r...

@john-richardson No card yet - did ours arrive with you? You’re right about postage costs. It’s cost a fortune this year.

@philip-of-huddersfield Maybe we need to cut him a little slack because of the work he’s done with Fareshare.

So that’s where I’ve been going wrong!

We still send cards to friends and relatives (regardless of whether they send one back 😉). Lots of people genuinely like receiving them, parti...

@original-fat-bob Is he still kicking that ball against a wall or busy inventing new boots?

@mfccanada Welcome, from the borders of East and North Yorkshire. UTB

Top quality (again), Len. As you know, I do like a collaboration with an opposition fan to get some balance - please thank John on our behalf. I'm alw...

@jarkko The trouble is, no team “deserves” to be in the EPL - you can only get there on merit and we’ve got a long way to go before we can achieve pro...

@clive-hurren I’d agree, Clive. We do seem to flip flop from euphoria to despair depending on one result. We’re not the best team in the league, but w...

We’ve just finished watching Smoggie Queens on BBC3 and iPlayer. Nice to see a programme set in the Boro and really enjoyed it.

As an aside, I don’t think Barney is happy about Saudi Arabia getting the World Cup (and who can blame him?).

@clive-hurren Another fine opener in a long line of fine openers. This Blog just keeps on giving. Like Clive, I think this will be a hard fought, clos...

@werdermouth Those are my thoughts too. Imagine playing Blunderland in the playoff final.
