@pedro I suspect the longer gap between semi and final is more to with the logistics of selling tickets and organising the trip to Wembley for supp...

@lenmasterman I was also at that game Len so the dull 0-0 probably had something to do with me being present as I think I'd failed to see Boro scor...

@selwynoz Good argument for beating Coventry in that Boro probably have a better chance of beating them over one game rather than two - plus defens...

@forever-dormo Of course if Boro beat Coventry it would give us a psychological advantage but it would be an advantage that couldn't be utilised as...

@pedro It's certainly hard to call as I can also see the need for going into the playoffs with some kind of momentum but I can also agree with Plat...

As for the game at the weekend, I only caught parts of it as we had visitors but didn't look like Boro were fully mentally in the game - whereas Rothe...

Hadn't noticed the site was down as was out and about most of the holiday weekend - Anyway, for those who didn't know, the problem was caused by the f...

@clive-hurren Clive, if you click on 'Contact' in the menu you will see the diasboro@outlook.com email address which I use to manage the site.

@jarkko All I'd say is that Steffen didn't bring Carlton Morris down - the Luton player wanted contact and just about engineered to brush against S...

Boro didn't really deserve to lose that one after a free header from a corner with shades of obstruction and a very dubious penalty - though Boro crea...

Boro looked comfortable in possession in that first half with Luton not really getting tight to the Boro players in order to break up our passing game...

While I did speculate on a possible back three with Dijksteel Lenihan and Bola, it would be too much work on the training pitch to change the system a...

Thanks for the opener OFB and good to see the fog from recent bout of Covid is starting to lift - though I have a friend whose experience of long Covi...

@jarkko Whatever the number of goals Millwall or Blackburn score in their remaining games, since they have to play each other only one can finish a...

@pedro Dijksteel was one of the best performing players last season and just having his extra pace in defence is enough for me to pick him - we see...

Indeed I think Boro have secured a playoff place since only three teams can now mathematically overtake us - Millwall, Blackburn and West Brom - but a...

Hull became the latest side to be flattened by the Boro steamroller in the second half - they couldn't live with Michael Carrick's men as they went up...

Boro have found it difficult against a well-drilled Hull side who have remained cool in possession when being pressed by Boro and have probably been m...

@jarkko You're a hopeless romantic but if Mowatt can revive his career then there's always a slim chance for Muniz to catch his next club's eye

Team News... So Mowatt is rewarded with a start - probably partnering Howson with Hackney continuing in his more attacking role on the left. Forss i...

Thanks Andy for another super preview and it was particularly interesting to hear about how Hull are a blunt but stubborn side - which are probably id...

I was just planning some possible weekend visits and trips with Mrs Werder and quite amazing to think that Boro's last weekend game of the season was ...

I would have to add that I was surprised how well Mowatt played when he came on and yes Jonny Howson once again defied his aging legs on a heavy pitch...

I think that result has given Boro back the momentum they appeared to have lost in recent games as they go back to third and become the Championship's...

Well that first half couldn't have gone much better (other than another McNair/Lenihan defensive blunder) but Norwich look like they could collapse de...

Team News... No McGree or Fry in the squad and Archer starts ahead of Crooks - otherwise as you were

@gt I don't think that matters as you can't change the registration of a player until the next transfer window - which is after the playoffs-

@exmil Barlasser seems a decent enough player and I'd have no worries if he started but with just one start since his arrival 12 games ago and only...

Onto Norwich and many thanks to Andy for perfectly setting the scene with extra-time preview - it's all about securing the three points tonight in ord...

@original-fat-bob Glad to hear recovery is making progress - Unfortunately the rules on returning loan players changed a few seasons ago and now a ...
