Had problems getting the live feed to work on the MFC site - finally got it working to see Boro already 2-0 down after 20 minutes!! If this doesn't ge...

@ken All I can say is that we differ on our view on what the monarchy represents to us individually and I've never felt any personal bond with the ...

Team News... So Wilder brings McNair back after injury and McGree continues as the number ten behind Muniz. Roberts continues in goal but Steffen st...

Thanks for the match preview OFB and a thorough examination of tonight's opponents Cardiff, who are surely there for the taking. Indeed, I'm more than...

Just to add something reported this morning on the policing of football games, including next weekend... A Metropolitan police statement at the week...

@k-p-in-spain Yes I mentioned that was the reason for possible postponements next weekend in an earlier post and it's probably more likely for a ga...

Just a brief word on football, given the state funeral will now be held on Monday 19 September, which will also be a Bank Holiday, I would see no reas...

@ken These days politics in real life has become probably more far-fetched than fiction so who knows what could happen. Michael Dobbs did of course...

@exmil It is indeed not a simple task in deciding who and how a head of state would be appointed in place of the current established system of the ...

@ken I don't think any of Boro's fixtures after this weekend will be postponed as I believe games will resume again. The FA are only looking at the...

@ken In some ways,like your friend, the Queen has already had her living memorial three months ago with the Platinum Jubilee where her life was cel...

@malcolm The Football Supporters Association agree with you on that point and given other sporting authorities have decided to continue with their ...

Many thanks to Andy for another excellent match preview but I suspect given the death of the Queen the football programme this weekend is likely to be...

@andy-r I'm more impressed with Muniz every time I see him play and he also plays with a smile on his face plus judging by his rapport with the oth...

@jarkko I've just forwarded the mail to Ken

Phew! No second goal but Boro got over the line to gain a valuable three points. Overall, I thought the difference was that Boro kept a good shape thr...

Took a while to find an unofficial stream but got one just in time and it's been an enjoyable first half with a real good derby atmosphere. Both sides...

Thanks for another interesting personal opener OFB - Mogga is indeed a top bloke and I wish him every success at Sunderland from Tuesday onwards! I've...

John Sorry to hear you've been given a bolt out of the blue but thankfully it sounds like your dentist has spotted the sinister intruder in time for...

@deleriad I perhaps shouldn't have said Bulkhaul as that has often been used incorrectly as it is the Gibson O'Neill Group who own both MFC and Bul...

@exmil I'm only basing my estimates on what we know the club were planning to spend based on bids they had made for players like Larsen and Greaves...

@malcolm 'Poor' is a bit over the top - three problem areas have been fixed with new keepers, left wing-back and left centre-back and Lenihan and M...

Just to add further to the amount Boro were preparing to spend - they also had bid £5m for defender Jacob Greaves and something around £8m for Strand ...

@k-p-in-spain Yes I forgot to include Matt Clarke in the money spent and he signed on a three-year contract - money well spent! Not sure how much t...

@paulinboro We know Steve Gibson has been pumping in millions for years now so we don't doubt his commitment - I think FFP rules now limit an owner...

There's also Boyd-Munce of course - he didn't look too bad when he's come on

@jarkko Got me there for a minute - hopefully Hull fans realise it's Adama Noss Traoré from Mali before they start celebrating...

I must admit I'm surprised that Boro weren't able to secure any major permanent signings given they received a huge windfall of £22.5m (potentially ri...

@clive-hurren The problem for Coburn and likewise for Forss or Hoppe is that they are unlikely to get much pitch time this season. So particularly ...

Sounds like Boro are now on to page three or four of their list of targets - household names they are not, which kind of removes the excitement of dea...
