Then we're in serious trouble then. Have you seen our record against the Robins?.Fully expecting Riis to enjoy one of his two brilliant games of the season? If we ever left this league I reckon Bristol would get rid.🤣

At the moment it is. But he'd relish the chance to develop himself and fight for his place from the bench. Mid-table Prem was Morgan Rogers' ceiling when he left for Villa. Surrounded by better players and with better opponents to play against he'd likely improve.

Man U are admirers of him, he'd be more likely to want to go there than anywhere else tbh.

It could well do. I all fairness I don't know who'll be going up with you, aside from Millwall no side seems to want to?🤣 If we end up in the playoffs then it will depend who we're up against. If it's Saints, Ipswich and Wrexham, I'd fancy our chances. If it's Millwall, Bristol and Hull, not a...

Nah, you're alright mate.🤣

Not a chance. Forest offered more than that and their offer was ridiculous🤣

A hell of a lot of it, yes. The strikers peel wide and cut it back to midfielders to take shots with a lot of the time.

If we don't get autos, I'd like Millwall to get them, partly for the romance of it and partly because they're the most "low block" side remaining? We may have beaten them 3 nil in our first game, but I'd see frustrating encounters on a knife edge, entirely dependent on whether one of our 34...

Did you watch Carrick? We were famous for getting beat off the relegation haunted sides, think one season we took 1 solitary point from the 6 games against them home and away🤪 There's not a cat in hell's chance Carrick would have won that last night, we'd have had less shots and not made any...

Nah, I was too tired to smash anything tbh. Long day at work followed by hospital visits, meant I only caught the last half hour of the match, which didn't improve the day any! It's a Typical Boro moment all over, we struggle against the low block anyway, but we're regretting not breaking the...

Probably about 25M tbh, as we'd have to seek a ready made replacement whether we went up or not as a lot of our play is based around our midfield? Assuming we could get that sorted, I think last night's match shows we need to break the bank on bringing a striker in in the summer, probably about...

Personally I quite chuckled at Mark Robins' views on the late penalty last night; "Informed that counterpart Kieran McKenna had thought the decision 'soft', Robins replied: "I don't care. I do not care. That's our first penalty of the season and we have had some bankers not given. So I do not...

That's exactly what they did. They're known for their shits n' gigs are the Gods. Well done for getting the word "capricious" into a post btw👍 But in all honesty it's a strange one as it's not just how many games there are, but how close together. If we lost to a side once as they got promoted...

I love the fact that you took the time to put the word "Hoodoo" in caps.👍 But in truth it's a tricky one. Games against yourselves are usually against a side somewhere around us in the table, so tend to have more riding on them? So the fallout is probably more in terms of effects. This you...

See, I understand the points made in this. But for a club to flourish, it HAS to spend some season(s) in the top flight. In the enjoyment sense, accepting that you're going to have to put up with VAR is certainly a fair trade for the money your club gets and the better players it can normally...

Au Contraire. I think you'll find that the gentleman doth speak common sense.

Indeed. However, the majority of those games are as valid to our side's overall defensive abilities now as the two nil nils prior to those being valid to your current strength of attack. We have different LBs and RBs, two new CBs, and a completely different manager. Again though I'd refer you...

That's not what David stated though is it?😁 For the record I'd agree with you on that as Ayling was clearly the wrong selection. Against a side with as much firepower as you have we ideally should have employed him in a CB 3, or at the very least had Fry start in his place. Still, it's a...

Heard it all now🤣We made a mistake playing Ayling when Fry should have started tbf. But to counter your claim, we've got the joint best defence in the champo. Or the best outright when you consider Ipswich have conceded the same goals as we have in a game less. In which case every single side...

Tbf Sunderland were the side overwhelmingly most likely to finish in the playoffs after that point and wanted to make sure they got no injuries for them, so just tossed it off for a lot of their remaining games. Their points haul in the last 10 games can be taken with a pinch of salt.
