I can still hear my late dad asking me why I was going to go and see the Boro, cos " they never come round to see you when you're bad ".
@lenmasterman mind you, to be fair to Craig Johns in three separate articles he stated: in one, that Middlesbrough "...were second-best all over t...
@lenmasterman Not surprisingly really, the local journos in South Yorkshire saw things a little differently to the Gazette (sorry, Teesside Live) c...
More like Middlesbrough were flattered by the scoreline, or maybe it should that have said Middlesbrough were flattened by the scoreline...
Donny are comfortably at least three goals better than us....and while I am writing they confirm that with a well deserved fourth. Well done Doncaster...
@philip-of-huddersfield Rav who?
not a bad return on a £250k purchase, even though we will have to pay some of the profit back to PEC Zwolle. I have seen a other figure quoted as €...
Great scene aetter @clive-hurren . Very informative, but concisely written and to the point: this fixture is not likely to be a walk in the park. I...
So. It appears our curtain raiser gives us a really good opportunity to put 2 clear points between us and (almost) everyone's two favourites to finish...
@forever-dormo I have got that FD, thanks.
@exmil Thanks Exmil, I have recorded that now
@forever-dormo are you happy for me to leave your prediction for Sheffield Wednesday underachieving as is or do you want me to switch the prediction t...
@jarkko did you see my post about your entries for Portsmouth overachieving and wrexham underachieving? Would you like me to change anything?
@chris-from-barlby Thanks Chris. That's your entry in at number 14....

@peter-surtees great post. I know exactly what you mean and I have been reticent to post as much as I have little to contribute as that I am very bu...
@original-fat-bob Thanks for the entry Bob. All recorded now. It is good to see some original thinking going on, with you definitely bucking the trend...
Eleven entries in the COTS challenge as of Thursday morning. As Peter Surtees noted, that at least gives us a full team to start the season with. Howe...

@forever-dormo it is indeed possible to make contradictory predictions. However, in doing that you know for sure you won't get any points for one of t...
groan... 🤪
@original-fat-bob I'd agree with that Bob. I think RE's coaches are also a step up on what he has had previously as well, so I for one am feeling conf...
Hi FD. You have marked down Sheffield Wednesday to be an underachiever, which means they would have to finish in 22nd place or lower. That also mea...
Sorry Andy, indeed it was. It was meant for FD, so I'll do a new reply to him.
Here is my own curious set of predictions for the year, delivered wearing very rose tinted spectacles: Top 6 = Ipswich , Birmingham , BORO, West...
Hi Jarkko. You have picked Portsmouth to overachieve, which means they would finish 6th or higher. However, Portsmouth is not one of your selections...

@clive-hurren thanks Clive. Just a note. You have marked Boro down as underachievers, but also to finish in 14th. To under achieve a team has t...
