@stircrazy back four as expected but not sure how the front four will line up - Iheanacho isn’t really anything other than a striker even though he...
@k-p-in-spain I think Boro are definitely outsiders for a top six spot - Coventry look certs and both West Brom and Bristol City have both only los...
@clive-hurren You'd expect a reaction from the players on Tuesday - especially at home in what would effectively by season-ending if Boro fail to w...
@jarkko That typo made me laugh out loud when I read it - a classic malapropism that somehow summed the defensive problems this season 😉 ...
Many thanks Jarkko for the preview with very good analysis with your usual positive twist - Boro will certainly need a big improvement on Swansea to h...
I think Carrick may be a bit deluded if he thinks that performance yesterday was a “one-off” - we’ve seen too many of these performances this season a...
@pedro I think we saw the full folly of the January window in that game - plus the odd decision by Carrick to leave Burgzorg, who was until he was ...
An error-strewn performance from Boro who looked anything but a coherent team against a poor Swansea side who simply knew that Boro couldn't hurt them...
No sign of Boro playing like a team in the second half after the subs - don't understand why Burgzorg hasn't come on yet?
Just checked, he's 26 and today is only his 3rd Championship game - so I am definitely old in comparison 😉
Iling-Junior on at left-back for Giles?
Unbelievable - Carrick makes 2 subs but keeps Whittaker on and takes off Forss instead!
Boro were a disjointed mess in that first half and failed to pass the ball or keep hold of it - Whittaker the worst offender and if he stays on the pi...
@pedro I wish Whittaker was anonymous...
Poor game with Boro playing terrible - can't pass the ball - Whittaker needs to come off as he's probably given the ball away 7 or 8 times already - i...
@exmil That's certainly a blow - I was expecting Doak to be back in training this week but it seems an injury to a Boro player sees them disappear ...
Thanks for another brilliantly amusing read Dormo - while people often say they're going on holiday to recharge their batteries, it seems you're takin...
Well thankfully job done - it was hard work and not pretty for most of the game but in the end massive three points is all that counted today to leave...
Well Boro finally have a left-footed central defender on the pitch- unfortunately it’s Borges 🤔
I think Burgzorg needs to come on to drive at Derby
After a slow start by Boro, the game is more or less as expected with Derby getting men behind the ball and Boro looking to find a way past them - not...
@k-p-in-spain sounds like Sammy Siberia has been left out in the cold 😏
Many thanks Clive for another top amusing and enjoyable preview - the win on Tuesday has certainly changed the potential mood for this afternoon's gam...
Guess what... I write my match preview for the last game of the season 😉
What a relief! Boro win a game and to be honest it should never have been in doubt against a poor Stoke side. Should give the players confidence to pl...
Boro need another goal to go above norwich
Finn Azaz is back as Boro almost walk it into the net with great move and sharp finish from Conway (too far out to miss)
