Well, it's a shame that Sheffield United won but that's the way things go. On a more useful note, both Norwich and West Brom dropped points whch mea...

Some thoughts from down under 1) Do you want the blog to continue next year and beyond? Definitely 2) if so, why do you like it? What are th...

@ken I was brought up in Linthorpe in the fifties and sixties and always felt myself as part of Yorkshire and the Boro. I left in my mid-teens and ...

Great piece @Andy R This does look like a bit of a potential banana skin. Maybe because we're suddenly at the point where we can actually catch Shef...

thanks @Original Fat Bob for opening up this discussion. I do wonder whether the current success of the team has meant that Boro has become a point ...

Nice and warm here in Sydney. We hit 30 earlier in the week! Is there any realistic chance of some games being postponed? If so, fixture pressure coul...

I’d count on Archer and it would keep his confidence high. utb

G’day peasepud Flight time between Sydney and Perth has always been a bit weird. The airlines are indeed quoting five hours plus a bit for the Syd...

I should remind people that Australia is huge. It takes four hours or so to fly across (London to Moscow?) and has a three hour time difference from e...

I have the MFC digital season pass. If the games are on TV here it means that, if necessary, I can record them and watch at a slightly more reasonable...

That just about sums it up :). This season has turned into such a positive experience that it will be a disappointment if we don’t at least make the p...

Sydney jury pushing it's way into Eurovision BURNLEY (76) WWDW (86) SHEFF U (64) DWDDD (71) BORO (57) WDWW (67) BLACKBURN (55) DDWL (60) MIL...

Agreed. The club really seems to be moving forward in the way that it is creating a positive and strong atmosphere within the playing group. The inter...

@ken Good spot. My father started watching Boro in the 1940s. He passed many years ago but your stories and articles bridge the gap for me and I tha...

Isn't it marvelous to watch a team that is playing good football and everybody seems to be enjoying themsleves. Archer and Akpom are absolute dynami...

nice piece @ Original Fat Bob My concern about this game is that we may make things too easy for Sheffield United. They don't worry about having dom...

Wednesday could well see us return to the Fry- Lenihan combination. Otherwise, same starting eleven, I would guess. utb

Well said @jarkko. I often feel that they pick up our subjects and turn them into articles. I suppose that it’s not that surprising given that there’s...

@original-fat-bob don't hold your breath 🙂

@jarkko I have a sneaking feeling that Doods was actually let go by the Boro and he signed for Hartlepool on a permanent deal. He's not showing up o...

Me too. I thought that he looked excellent. What a great team performance to wake up to. By the way, bit of trivia for fellow bloggers. Did anyone e...

Same here in Oz. BeIn Sport are showing the Boro game on their regular channels - after the Norwich/Burnley game - so anyone who has a digital subscr...

@deleriad I agree. It’s a balanced squad with some capable youngsters both at home and out on loan. Coburn, Hoppe and Brynn should come back challe...

I too really like Watmore but we can also look at it from another point of view. There is an argument that the club is doing him a favour by agreeing ...

@plato I agree that Sunderland were handed the game on a plate but we weren't very good even before the penalty. We looked quite different yesterda...

Should be another chance to record the game and watch it at a sensible time.

What a treat that was, I recorded it overnight as 2.00am kickoffs are getting a bit much these days. It was a great way to start the day watching the ...

@original-fat-bob .and a very happy new year to you too.

@forever-dormo A very solid argument in favour of keeping Akpom. I’m sure that nothing will happen over the next three weeks and then the situation...
