    9 Years Ago Today...

    That Crewe game was a shocker. 2012-13 ! Kilbane told a fan to F off but he had been singled out for dog’s abuse the entire match (after scoring a brilliant goal vs Bham in the fizzy pop cup only a few days before). I wonder how most of us would react to being harangued like that during our job...

    Transfer Rumour Frank Onyeka

    He doesn’t seem to be in a hurry to sort out his future. I would very much like to sign him from Brentford and Ethan Pinnock too while we are at it, because I worry about the holes we have in the centre of the park. Not yet filing under “pending” however based on a Nigerian soccer site.

    25/26 January Transfer Window

    Is he? I thought West Ham had bid £6m this morning. Anyway, doesn’t look like he’s on his way to us, and it doesn’t look like Louza is off to Ipswich either.

    Slough is quite soft though I reckon.

    25/26 January Transfer Window

    He came on at half time to replace Kitchin who Robins played for 45 mins as LWB vs Luton. Tbf I don’t think Rudoni entered his own half. Edit: wrong match This is it

    Without wishing to pry too much, did something happen to the little toe on your left foot?

    Championship thread 25/26!

    It happens every match day on the bbc site (where those ratings are from). The ratings from the winning team are *always* significantly higher than for the losers (largely because fewer of the fans on the losing side can be arsed to rate their players out of ten and those that do are often keen...

    That’s not the University of Stirling btw but a collective of agencies that partner schools, colleges and overseas universities (actually 2 in Iraq). It’s not a HEI but a private institution.

    25/26 January Transfer Window

    Because good tho he was in a pisspoor team, he wasn’t good enough to make the difference and keep them up. The following year Ipswich gambled on loaning Kalvin Phillips rather than signing Hamer. His subsequent performance in the championship only served to reinforce the point that the best...

    Checking in

    @Kris_Boro @Ipad Boro whats the craic w Viveash? He seemed integral to Gibson’s rebuild plans (I heard last week that it was Carrick’s refusal to agree to AVs arrival that sealed his fate) and his stock looked v high after Edwards left but I get the impression that he’s been somewhat isolated...

    Video EXTENDED HIGHLIGHTS ▶️ | Coventry City v Millwall | Sky Bet Championship 2025/26 🏆

    No footage of the first half penalty claim (challenge on Grimes). I wasn’t convinced from the other end of the stadium but any thoughts, evidence?

    25/26 January Transfer Window

    Yep. That’s exactly the reason why players transfer from the club at the bottom of the championship to the top every season. Especially at 36 years of age. He doesn’t look that good, merely hints that he was a skilful player who probably should have achieved more in his career. He’s not won...

    25/26 January Transfer Window

    This account is beyond ridiculous. “Journalist” with 100 followers, mostly tweets about Sheffield clubs. Yesterday’s exclusive claimed we had bid £900k for Bailey Cadamateri from Wednesday w instant loan back til end of season (because he’s exactly what we’d need next season if we were in the...

    Esse Song

    Is this an adaption of the Boro song they say is based on Enola Gay but is in fact nothing like that tune?

    Transfer Rumour Bassette to Kaiserslautern

    Never been able to hear the term Gelsenkirchen without hearing it in a thick Liverpudlian accent since 5 Live’s coverage of the 2006 World Cup when Sheila Fogarty said it was most Scouse name ever.

    Team you dislike the most

    I’ve voted for Vile obviously but I have a seething disregard for Norwich. They have brilliant PR but since the days of Paul Lambert I’ve always noticed that they are a team full of shithousery and gamesmanship. This season’s game at the CBS was the epitome but hardly an isolated incident. Our...

    Ref watch

    We’ve already had a penalty vs Millwall this season.

    Villa Rivalry

    I bet there are very few of those that think of us as their first team though. There are plenty of Villa fans (like Ian Bell) who think it’s ok to like us too.

    Villa Rivalry

    The final part of this sentence is true but growing up in Warwickshire the only people I knew who went to football watched us or them. If then weren’t actually going to games they supported Liverpool, Man United, Leeds or whoever. I don’t think I met a Leicester fan until I went to university...
