@werdermouth Maybe the Boro have adopted Sunak’s latest nonsensical word-salad, “Back to Square One”.
@forever-dormo Answers on a postcard? On Q1 & Q2: I guess we’ll have to accept that MC has his reasons - let’s hope his reason isn’t just to win...
@original-fat-bob You’re probably right - I’ll post it very shortly. Hope you’re enjoying your birthday.
I’ve got the Preston starter ready to publish but maybe I should let the current match post run its course first so we can get yesterday’s game out of...
Just checked the score: 0-2 and we haven’t had a shot on target.
@werdermouth That’s a good point about the income which, for me, shows the crazy situation of football finance. Having a disastrous season in the EPL ...
On reflection, I think I’d like to finish 6th every season and to lose in the playoffs (controversial I know).
@forever-dormo I’d be very happy to take the second box - I dread a promotion that gives us a season of losses every week, before being plunged back i...
@forever-dormo You make some very valid points and it got me thinking. Every year when the season begins we all think that we’ll have a decent shot a...
@lenmasterman Those are my thoughts too. Unless we can hold our own in the Premier League, I can’t see any enjoyment in losing games week in, week out...
@clive-hurren PNE’s season can’t be going too poorly, given they’re 10th and we’re 12th (although I accept we’ve got a game in hand).
A bit of light relief from the Guardian:/p>
@forever-dormo A very sensible post. In the same way that we can relax a little once relegation has definitely been avoided, we might feel less stress...
@stircrazy And here’s the Guardian’s report:
@clive-hurren I’d concur with your view of the game too. It’s ok to criticise MC, as others have done, but if the players at his disposal aren’t dee...
@philip-of-huddersfield Maybe I don’t see enough games, but I definitely wasn’t bored at all - like I say, perhaps only seeing a few games makes me mo...
Disappointed not to get all 3 points. We seemed to lose our impetus after the three substitutions and Glover probably should have done better with the...
@malcolm Not for me. I think we’ve edged it.
@clive-hurren Sounds good. I’ll have a Malbec please. 🍷
@eboroacum I actually had my 60th Birthday in a rented cottage in Potto with all the family. Good memories, although I recall Wigan Warriors losing th...
I found this article about how Football differs from other businesses quite interesting (from today’s Guardian). PS. I’ve just noticed that this...
Good work, Clive. I’m away with family for the weekend in the County Pallatine, but hopefully I’ll be able to watch the game on my iPad. Let’s hope we...
@pedro Like most employment contracts, I suspect there’s always a way out. I’d genuinely be interested in reading a footballer’s contract to see what ...
@malcolm What would you do in his position? He’s (apparently) being offered a move to a team near the top of the PL from a mid-table Championship team...
I suspect none of us, in our heart of hearts, was too surprised by last night’s result. The home game could easily have been a very different result (...
@forever-dormo You pooped in the butcher’s?
@deleriad As coincidence would have it, Mrs B and I stopped in Stamford Bridge last week, to give Ralf a walk on our way home from York. The village m...
@original-fat-bob Really? Maybe he was just doing his job of seeing it as he saw it, rather than showing a Boro bias. Who knows? - I’d like to remembe...
