@original-fat-bob It remains to be seen whether the post Bola made at 14 would be regarded as a criminal offence - I checked the CPS website to see ...
@powmillnaemore Interesting article but it couldn't find out whether Andre Gray ultimately was sanctioned - Interestingly, I read another related st...
Just reading about the case, I hadn't realised that Bola has already been charged by the FA with misconduct for the incident so it appears they are pu...
It seems youth players between the ages of 12-15 are subject to the FA rule book - so it may well be that Bola will be found in breach of one of its r...
What a completely bizarre state of affairs if the FA are going to start pursuing players for historic posts made before they are deemed legally respon...
@andy-r As far as I recall, the transfer and loan window are now the same date after the practise of short-term loans was ended. I think the emergen...
As for the new arrivals - well if I'm honest I've barely heard of any of them until they were linked with Boro so I've absolutely no idea if they'll b...
I suspect the late Forest loan wasn't particularly appealing to Spence given PL clubs had shown interest - especially if you consider a player can onl...
The window is nearly closed and still no sign of that player that was supposed to 'shock' Boro supporters - do we have any idea who it was meant to be...
On the other hand, £15m for Gibson looks like it was good business as from what I've seen he has looked a bit out of his depth playing in the Premier ...
@selwynoz Such is the nature of relativity, I wonder if optimism for someone with a pessimistic predilection is just a less pessimistic outlook? T...
@exmil Maybe the theory of realism is like relativity and can often be seen as both optimism and pessimism when being observed from outside of that ...
@deleriad I think the glass has the potential to overflow but I think at the moment Boro have been guilty of spilling their opportunity to sit at th...
@malcolm As well as Payero get some game time in the U23 game, I see Jeremy Sivi was also back in action after his injury and scored the first goal ...
@allan-in-bahrain I certainly agree that watching Boro games has become a lot more enjoyable this season - plenty of action and a much more positive...
@original-fat-bob At least the arrival of Hernandez will mean Payero will finally have someone to talk to in Spanish.
@k-p-in-spain I would think Warnock will appeal as it didn't look anything that demanded a straight red - he seemed to react to player holding his s...
@malcolm Yes it didn't feel like the time to take off one of your most threatening players given there aren't any games for two weeks now - plus Bol...
Well it was an open end-to-end game full of action but perhaps Boro still lack an end product and a serious goal threat. Some good performances again ...
An open game with Boro driving forward against what looks like a Blackburn defence that is waiting to be undone. Having Tavernier in that midfield rol...
God forbid it's not a back-four with Dijksteel as left-back and Howson at right-back...
A few questions about the team - no Bola plus Fry, Hall and McNair probably means a back three with either Jones or Tav at left wing-back. Also no ikp...
Back and even more refreshed from our second spell camping by the Baltic Sea (where I discovered the water was as cold as the name suggests) a little ...
Thanks for the opener OFB and getting to the bottom of those Rooney revelations - I suspect out of sympathy Boro may opt for a rear-guard action and h...
@exmil I think it was said in the commentary that if the referee didn't mention the incident in his report (i.e. he didn't see it) then the EFL coul...
@clive-hurren I agree that Boro seemed to lose composure given how much time they had to score a winner after equalising at 2-2. We need a midfielde...
Just to add on the Fry issue - I read that it's now 13 games since Boro have kept a clean sheet - that's not a reputation builder for any centre-half!
@ken I just lost a long post replying to whether to cash in on Fry (I think I got logged out by my Browser and the posting failed). Anyway, the gi...
I think Deleriad has put his finger on the problem or even limitation of Warnock's team man-marking tactics and how when teams run with the ball after...
@selwynoz Possibily McNair and Howson doing their poor man's Gerrard and Lampard impression...
