For everyone bar probably the usual top six of Man City, Liverpool, Chelsea, Arsenal, Spurs and Man United - plus perhaps newly mega-enriched Newcastl...

I'd agree with Plato that it's the act of winning promotion to the PL that is the pinnacle of joy for the supporters - closely followed by the act of ...

Further to Forest's play-off hopes, after now losing twice to Bournemouth, their form against the other play-off rivals is surprisingly not great with...

I watched the last 30 minutes of Bournemouth v Forest and agree with Selwynoz that Steve Cooper's side looked very ordinary and not what I was expecti...

@Powmill-Naemore Quite Frankly that was a superb reworking of a classic and reprised the season perfectly! In fact it worked even better once I'd ...

Thanks to Andy for another grand finale of a match preview and hopefully a few more encores from OFB and himself to come before the curtain comes down...

@Ken-Smith Like many children educated in the state system since the 1960s, I was subject to the decision to stop teaching English grammar beyond th...

Thankfully, the site appears to be back up and running after the automatic renewal of the diasboro.club domain didn't happen as expected. Anyway, I've...

I think the University of Diasboro may be able to make you Dr Len Masterman - but maybe you already are?

@lenmasterman Strangely, in recent years I've noticed a slight disconnect between my fingers and brain when typing - it seems the memory muscles in ...

Well Boro put in the performance they needed and won comfortably against Stoke to take it to the last game - though whether that third minute injury t...

For those in need of an unofficial link... Boro v Stoke as usual keep closing the pop-up windows and tabs

Team News: Looks like Chris Wilder has taken the Diasboro advice and brought back Crooks in place of Bola, Fry comes in for Bamba and Peltier replaces...

Well I'm hoping for at least a two-goal victory tomorrow so that if Luton do lose at Fulham on Monday then they will have the pressure of needing a wi...

Unfortunately QPR were Hoopless in holding onto their lead - Sheff Utd players were celebrating after the game like they'd just won promotion. Anywa...

Don't forget Sheff Utd have failed to win any of their last six away from home! Here's a scenario going into the last game... Sheff Utd draw with ...

So it's the penultimate weekend of the Championship where everything is still to play for in deciding who will end up in the play-offs - with Bournemo...

Another problem I've noticed for Jones is that he's often receiving the ball whilst stationary and also hugging the touchline, which has not left him ...

@Selwynoz Unfortunately the rule for returning loan players changed a few years ago meaning players can only change the club they are registered to ...

Hopefully if Boro end up winning their last three games it will be enough to finish in the top six - which the six-game form table may demonstrate wou...

League goals scored by Boro strikers in 2022 (19 games) is 11... Watmore - 3 (last goal 2 Apr) Balogun - 3 (last goal 2 Apr) Sporar - 2 (1 pen, ...

OK, Here are the EFL rules on the matter (note I've edited this post and added all the rules just to show they've thought of absolutely everything)......

Apparently PL rules state if goal difference and goal scored are the same then there would be a play-off at a neutral venue to determine the final pla...

Given Bola's poor end product on the left, playing Tav as left wing-back as suggested by several others would allow Crooks to come into midfield.

Maybe because QPR have beaten Coventry twice (2-0, 2-1)?

@Selwynoz Interesting poser of what happens if points, goal difference, goals scored are the same - if it's one-on-one record we lose out (2-0, 1-4)...

Well part one has been successfully achieved with a relatively comfortable win if not completely convincing in large parts. 14 shots and 9 corners del...

A first half that took Boro quite a long time to get going as they lacked the desired urgency. Tav's goal has at least settled the nerves but a few pl...

If anyone needs an unofficial stream then this one appears to be working ok... Boro v Cardiff

Team News: Well it's Balogun and Watmore starting, Tav plays but no Fry
