@martin-bellamy It might well have been right back then but I belong to the generation where they decided to stop teaching grammar and opted for co...

Just to add that Oxford United were originally called Headington United so the the nickname The U's could refer to them being both - though then that ...

@martin-bellamy That’s an interesting one as I’ve seen both U’s and Us being stated as the acceptable plural of U - I would prefer U’s as it remove...

Many thanks OFB for donning the mantle and endeavoring to produce an original and excellent Oxford preview - we may need some detective skills to find...

@exmil Well spotted Exmil I've moved the preview to the 2024-25 forum - I'm glad someone is paying attention 😉

I thought Ayling didn't look uncomfortable at left-back and seemed to defend pretty well and was able to find his passes and get up the pitch down the...

Btw After averaging a goal a game in their first 11 games, Boro are now currently joint top scorers in the Championship after scoring 12 in the 4 game...

Couldn't have wanted more than that after Coventry last Saturday to go into the international this week with 6 points and 9 goals - and some great goa...

Michael Carrick looks to have got his tactics right today with a muscular and mobile front 3 of Latte Lath, Burgzorg and Doak. The game itself has bee...

@lenmasterman I don't blame you for escaping the gloom - we've had literally no sun for well over a week now with just this cold damp cloudy weathe...

I noticed reading the Gazette's predicted line-up for Luton it still reports: "He [Hayden Hackney] is still walking a disciplinary tightrope though, w...

@pedro It must be purgatory to watch West Brom as they only scored 1 goal in October and have so far only 1 goal in November. Six draws since we be...

@jarkko If an 18-month older Donald Trump can be appointed as the new manager of the USA - replacing a 5-year older Joe Biden - then I'm sure Lenni...

Thanks Len for another great preview with a very perceptive analysis of Luton's less than impressive start to the season - though should we be worried...

@martin-bellamy Latte Lath certainly offers another and different out-ball once Doak has been subbed - though what they both have in common is pace...

@forever-dormo Yes you're right that the people of the USA have elected Donald Trump as president and there's nothing we can do about it - though w...

@jarkko Yes last night's 4-1 win was an excellent psychological boost and perfect response to that previous game that I've forgotten about...

@jarkko Last 3 games - scored 7 - conceded 7 Another step forward but Boro will need to improve our recent defensive lapses if our promotional ch...

@jarkko I thought Morris was a contender for MotM - he seemed to have all the time in the world, lots of composure and never panicked when in a tig...

Well after QPR scored it looked like Boro had let them back into the game but didn't see 4-1 coming - a great bit of composure from Latte Lathe after ...

Well that’s more like it 2-0 up at HT - though since I missed the first 25 minutes can’t comment on what went before - plus Dieng has shown he can sav...

@stircrazy At least it wasn’t Ben Down…

It's handball training for my son tonight so won't get back until after the first 20 minutes so we'll probably get an early goal!

Well I did indeed get a swift reply from the FA - here is what they said... Not sure which club you are, but if a player is sent off for two caution...

@jarkko Over here in Germany, you wouldn't have the apostrophe to denote possession so Queens would be the correct writing of it rather than Queen'...

Further to Hackney's yellow card count - I still think I'm right that he only has 3 yellow cards and as way of comparison I've looked at the case of W...

@forever-dormo I would probably agree that the way the world is going it appears if there's even more money to be made then there will be those who...

Strange but the EFL website is showing Hackney with 3 yellow cards and 1 red card - you would've thought if anyone was correct it would be them ǹ...

Btw that Abert Adomah dancing with the cheerleaders was at Yeovil - here's a video link...

Many thanks Jarkko for really great opener, I really enjoyed reading about your early life and how you became a Boro supporter - plus lots of interest...
