The proverbial game of two halves - Boro came out with more intensity with the ineffectual Gilbert and Silvera subbed and suddenly looked up for the g...
if ever there should be 3 half-time subs then this is one!
That first half was a litany of errors where the players were far too casual in comparison to the intensity of the Stoke press. It seems many were pla...
@pedro Yes we're reaching the business end of the season and teams who get into the automatic places need to win most of their games - for example,...
@martin-bellamy I'm sure Hackney would love to win promotion with Boro this season but if Man Utd came in with an offer that met Boro's valuation a...
@pedro I suppose it's whether the pain doesn't cause the injury to get worse - ankles and joints are dodgy things - I did my knee somehow a some we...
@clive-hurren Nobody could ever accuse you of being a fair-weather Boro supporter Clive 😉 Hope it's a good game for you!
You may have noticed for those who have Avatars with Initials that the colour has changed - this happened when I updated the plugin that creates them ...
Many thanks Clive for that nautical but nice two-part opener and it's unlikely to be plain sailing at Stoke on a cold wet windy Wednesday evening - es...
@exmil That would seem a quite logical conclusion but looking at Conway's stats during the 10 games McGree played he had 14 shots with 4 on target ...
Tommy Conway stats 2025-26 As we know Conway covers a lot of grass during games so here's a heatmap of his 2025-26 season - you can see he plays mor...
@pedro My mistake just spotted Nypan on the subs list - didn't see him the first time 🧐
Just watched the highlights again (I'm getting good as I've actually already put the link up on the home page) and still didn't think we were going to...
Phew!!! Well that wasn't how I thought the game would see out once Boro went 2-0 up - Boro guilty of taking their foot off the gas and then got caught...
That first half was a bit of a grind - West Brom sitting in the low block but Boro on the whole moved the ball too slowly with much of the game at wal...
@martin-bellamy To be fair he's getting closer - he at least hit the bar at Fulham...
@powmillnaemore Don't you mean Dazza...
@exmil Apparently there could be a problem with Joel Piroe going to Celtic as Leeds and Rangers have the same owners.
@exmil Always seems to be Celtic interested in the same players that Boro are linked with 🙂
There are some reports that Boro may be interested in taking Joel Piroe on loan from Leeds - he scored 19 and made 3 assists last season in their prom...
@simonfallaha Thanks for that very interesting retrospective analysis of both post-cup exertions and our historical record against the Baggies. I w...
Btw When Andy put out a call for potential volunteers for the West Brom preview to cover OFB, I thought I'd better start preparing something - though ...
Thanks everyone and also thanks for the offer Powmill but it's not that much work if I keep on top of everything instead of letting it build up over a...
As you know I've been very very busy the last few months and my general to-do list has been growing but I've just finally managed to update the home p...
@original-fat-bob Hope the recovery is coming along and take it easy running up the stairs 🙂
Well done Chris, that was a very entertaining and original preview that you've produced there - you've found your Diasboro voice and done so with styl...
@chris-from-barlby Glad I just checked in again as had just started writing a few paragraphs in anticipation of needing to cover the preview Ƕ...
@andy-r Actually, I was just wondering about that this morning - I could probably put something together if nobody has been allocated as cover.
@stircrazy I'm a bit sceptical that Holland was Carrick's idea and possibly more likely a Jason Wilcox one as I don't know if they've ever had any ...
Just thinking about Newcastle extending the Targett recall deadline - I suppose it could be to Boro's advantage if Newcastle were uncertain on one of ...
