    Match Thread Warnock’s delusional?

    Pen for me. The reason Dabo goes down is he starts marginally behind Ikpeazu and then tries (and fails) to get his left arm across him to slow him down. Ikpeazu is just too strong in that situation, Dabo bounces off him and when he goes down he then clips Ikpeazu who goes down too. It's clumsy...

    Bright and Robins

    Currently with the lawyers who are deciding if tricking Bright into signing a letter of re-signation is watertight or not.

    Entrance Music

    Used to got there as a 16 year myself in the 90s and enjoyed treating myself to a couple of bottles of Newcastle Brown in there on a Friday night. Well i say enjoyed but it was horrible stuff. And i say treated, but it was all i could afford! Then I'd be on trolley duty in Sainsbury's Trinity...

    Curl in from a corner challenge

    I expected him to be taking the corners from the half way line.

    Match Thread Boro' Match Thread

    Bernie Slaven can piss off too. Still not forgiven him for the 4-3 defeat when Speedie also got a hattrick.

    International Break - benefit to us?

    More training and fitness time for Kelly and Godden!

    Was it a good window?

    Agree with all of that completely apart from the 10 years bit. If you're really talking squad then it's a lot longer than that. We had a few good players under Coleman in 2008/2009 but the squad was so weak looking back. We started 2008 with Stephen Wright, Beuzelin, Gray, Eastwood in the side...

    I can think of a few posters on here who would be more than willing to help with that!

    Bright and Robins

    Choked to death on his canary, hence the party pictures on Canary Wharf. He's also got an aging Labrador so I'm sure there will be a cracking knees up on the Isle of Dogs when the inevitable happens.

    Where are we at

    It's going to be a fun season. We've got some genuinely exciting players to watch and for the most part we play good football. We'll beat some teams soundly, lose to some that are better, lose to some that are worse and pick up points where we didn't expect. We'll be a solid mid table side, back...

    QPR away

    Would be nice, given the allocation is sold out, if the club were allowed to show the game at the Tavern but I suppose the Saturday 3pm rule still stands and also QPR could have given us more.

    QPR away

    Was it a lot bigger on the inside that it looks on the outside?

    Liam Kelly

    Think you're mixing up the injuries. Godden's was afoot and Kelly's was aknee.

    Would you have Tom Bayliss back?

    That team was quite a mess in the first half of the L1 season. Playing 4-2-3-1: Chaplin as 10 and JCH as 9, Hiwula or Shipley on the left of the 3 and Luke Thomas on the right. Hiwula was one of the worst strikers I've ever seen with his back to goal, JCH being asked to play as a lone striker...

    The little things

    Highlights, extended highlights and a full match replay. How quickly it is available after I'm not sure though.

    Would you have Tom Bayliss back?

    We tried to turn him into something he wasn't in his last season here and he had an impossible job playing deeper alongside Doyle when his legs had gone. I think that has stuck in a lot of people's memories. He's only 22 still and we have no idea if he has continued to develop at Preston or not...

    4 caps for Ecuador. After Gyokeres 2 for Sweden, I think we're getting an insight into Badlan's Football Manager scout search: International caps: <5 Position: Striker Age: <24 Value: <= 999,999

    DO NOT boo the knee

    You supported the fuck out of your mate when he was shown up to be posting racist shite on social media, to the point where you suggested we should turn a blind eye to racism to support a march in support of a change in CCFC ownership. What has changed your view?
