@mfccanada welcome to the blog from the other end of the world. Sydney to be precise UTB
@original-fat-bob Do I sense your concern that a 'Typical Boro' could be in the offing. Let's hope not. I'm going for a win and we have the curse o...
@gt As I have suggested earlier, I would sell Lathe Lath for anything over Pds25 million - a profit of Pds20 million or thereabouts - but try to ke...
Could he be Cameron Archer or is he more like Aaron Ramsey UTB
From today's Guardian The defensive selection had looked makeshift, with Archie Gray at centre-back and at right-back, Djed Spence making his first ...
@pedro I was watching the game and had exactly the same observation. Players all across the team were making uncharacteristic mistakes and I almost...
@forever-dormo We have to play at the level that Leeds are showing to expect to be able to catch up to an automatic spot. Reaching the playoffs is ...
It's easy to complain about the first half but we have to recognise that we're up against a really good side. Edmundson and Clarke have been strong in...
Burnley are certainly a good side and play in a similar way to us. We appear to have been playing against the wind and should now have the chance to h...
If we accept Werdermouth's inference that the Latte Lath deal may happen, what amount makes sense? I'm thinking that Pds25 million is the lowest that ...
@forever-dormo Well put. It's very hard these days to find any source of news that is reasonably unbiased and free from underlying political views ...
@lenmasterman Good analysis. If I was asked to name the best example of long term astute recruiting I'd go for Morris but I don't know who was fina...
@mw-in-darwin I haven't watched much of Burnley and so I only know about their style from what other commentators report. I wonder how they will re...
Maybe we should copy the trend for walking football and aim for a new slowed down version of maypole dancing. Less hopping up and down but still prope...
@jarkko apologies for delay in posting. Burnley lead now up. UTB
Good question. I keep seeing people wearing Boro shirts with Messi on the back. Why is that, I wonder. It should be Azaz but he's 20, not 10. Does tha...
Ah, I've now read the later posts and realise why I didn't remember us scoring 6 at Luton. UTB
I was seven but I too don't remember that one. I do remember the 6-6 - maybe I became aware of it later - but wasn't aware of all the shenanigans goin...
@werdermouth You can see the Sky games in Oz on demand on BeInSport but you need to pay for it. It made for a great morning when I got up and wat...
@werdermouth Guessing that I might be a little older and so was brought up with some written grammar. Anyway, for my sins, I have been proof-readin...
@powmillnaemore If anyone wants a detective recommendation, I can throw in the recent MAIGRET adaptation starring Rowan Atkinson. Two seasons (2016...
@Original Fat Bob Great starter but I trust that this is not a a challenge that you are laying down to other members of this blog. Are we now oblige...
Should be money in the bank. Does anyone know the deal terms? I wonder if all conditions have now been met or does he have to actually play an interna...
@original-fat-bob absolutely. He is an important page (or two) in the story of the club and still has a lot to offer. utb
We were also fortunate that he sat in on the Radio Tees commentary team that accompanies the Riverside Live stream of the game. It was fascinating to ...
Goals from Burgzorg and Lathe Lath ...... well, what do we know. Latte Lath looks as if he is back to his old self from the end of last season. UTB
not sure what to make of the team. McGree has to travel to Australia and Bahrain and maybe needs the rest but he will certainly be missed. Conway also...
@werdermouth I wonder if Carrick will look at the physical style that Luton use with plenty of crosses and maybe go with three at the back - Fry, E...
I totally agree. Morris seems to be overlooked but for me he is the glue that holds the midfield together. He is always available when needed, vary ra...
