    Transfer targets

    Anyone saying we need a Forest style window should just stop. They had a £250m+ outlay and have taken on a ridiculous wage bill. If Forest go down they’re done. I’d be looking at 8-10 signings, but signings that would put us in a strong position if we go down. Nothing daft like Jesse Lingard...

    Potential retained list

    Don't think ripping up the squad would work. That said we'll need 5-6 successful improvements on the starting XI. Not sure how many new players that warrants.

    HAMER: BEST MIDFIELDER IN THE CHAMPIONSHIP

    He’s on a different level. Miles better than anyone Boro had up against him. On Sunday it felt like he was playing their midfield by himself. He’s PL level and then some.

    We still need him to get the ball under, get on the turn and do what he does best.

    Match Thread Middlesbrough vs Coventry City Play off Semi final 2nd leg Match Thread - Wednesday 17th May

    As others have said, complete bollocks that they're content with that game and performance, and 'didn't get out of third gear'. They shaded it, I thought, but did nothing in the second half and let us dominate, though we didn't create much. Anything can happen on Wednesday night. Even if we'd...

    Yeah Sheaf not getting any minutes makes me think he's there in case something goes wrong, i.e. injury to Kelly Disappointing as I think he's made to play against this Boro side, and would free up Hamer to do more going forward

    If Sheaf starts and plays well, we'll look a different side. I'm a bit unsure on what to do re Godden. He wasn't in the game, but then does a lot of unselfish running, and is there a risk Vik is isolated?

    Dave Boddy

    I think that’s a strange take. A CEO of a football club can’t take any credit for success? Not sure you do have to. Fisher was here a long time before Boddy though, and was more involved pre Boddy too - coincidentally a period of decline. Sunlit uplands only since Sir Boddy came in.

    True but Norwich have also bounced around the PL a fair bit, whereas we’ve not always had a stadium to play in, hard to compare.

    Tbf I think most football clubs outside the prem are pretty poorly run. The staff are all grossly underpaid and stretched way too thin. Doesn’t surprise me that it’s a shit show. That said Boddy will be largely judged on the first team performance, which clearly has been good.

    Head of Recruitment Chris Badlan and Chief Scout Stuart Benthom have left the Club.

    He publicly said he did at the Blackpool game, where he spoke in hospitality pre game.

    Contracts Over Signings?

    Every point on here is just confirmation bias ha. We’re applying logic and reason to what we want to happen. In the summer, maybe he could’ve signed another year. But if a player has intentions to leave in 4 months, they don’t sign a new deal to help their current club out. It hurts their...

    Contracts Over Signings?

    But surely he can get that and more with a PL offer.

    Contracts Over Signings?

    Seems to be a few people who think Gyok might/has already signed a new deal. Taking off my sky blue tinted glasses, I can’t understand why he would do that. What’s the logic?

    Yeah granted, missed that he was at fault there. His work defensively and off the ball is so good though. He takes the ball on the turn, can pass round the corner. Thought he gave us so much control. Plus he scored.
