Hoodoos exist for good reason in our experience. No matter how against the run of play or statistically improbable it is, something will happen, we will find a way not to triumph. I suppose as well as nerves there's a statisical reason too, such as us having less prep time than the overwhelming...

Hopefully, but another Hoodoo is Wembley?🤣 We haven't won there in 5 visits, lost every time. We had a feeling we were going to win the league cup in 2004 precisely because Wembley was getting renovated, so the final was moved to the Millenium Stadium in Cardiff? As soon as that was announced we...

Told you. Despite this... Last shot of 6 minutes added on, despite there being hardly any stoppage, bang, 1-1 and thereby bringing to an end the stat that we win every game we score first in. And will probably result in us being out of the top 2 for only the 3rd game week this season. Hoodoo...

Nah, you're nailed on. As for us, Hoodoo fulfilled. At least we don't have any more of those shitty games between now amd season end.

Don't know who these lads are, but suspect they're of the empty vessels shout the loudest clueless minority. We may play the best football to.watch, but we're not the best team in the league. The table tells it's own story and any of our fans with sense know we're not catching you from here...

I've actually done this, though appreciate I've had a geographical advantage? His Mam's house that he grew up in was round the corner from my own parents' that they moved into in the late 90s so when my Dad was still alive and I'd popped back to see them some years ago, I took him for a pint in...

Like they'd come to the champo for 15M🤣 But Vipotnik would. And we'd create twice as many chances to score for him as Swamsea would, ergo turning him into a Mitrovic.

Of course, football isn't an exact science, we all know that. But what do think we'd have been like this season with a prime Miitrovic up top to bury anything that came this way? Which there'd have been a lot of.

You say that, but look at the amount of goals Vipotnik gets in relation to Swansea's chance creation. We as a rough estimate get twice as many chances created and shots away as they do? It's not an exact science granted, but that would have him on 34 goals for us at this point, with a good...

That's a decent estimate. Hopefully we'd chuck 10M of it on his replacement and 15M on a Vipotnik. With the volume of shots we create compared to Swamsea, you'd have to imagine we'd be raining goals in. All those games where we're getting 20-35 shots in and only recording a single goal at best...

We got a 1-1 draw with them at our place and had twice as many shots on target, so their low block wasn't as efficient as Charlton's, or Oxford's for that matter. As for at theirs, they're open so we'd have a good chance of a win there. Providing Hellberg started with a back 5🤞 and used wing...

Though the change of league was a Hoodoo canceller for the one we had over Brentford. Would I hell bank on that though!🤣

Can't think why, you have a much better record against us than Hull. It's not even close🤣 Also that embargo would no longer be a factor at all.

It's an 'IF' but one that we have to think of as likely. For all their slight stutters lately, same as us, Ipswich are a decent side. But yeah, there would just be a point in it between us and those two, so tight as a nun's chuff. We've been reigning Ipswich's GD gradually in up until last...

I imagine that ourselves and Millwall both going up, one through the autos, one through the playoffs, wouldn't matter which way round, would be best from a Cov point of view with survival in mind.

As I said in a previous post, I'd take that personally, would stop either side making up our little lead on them.

We're already taking them very seriously. Only an idiot wouldn't as Neil is a good manager and their team spirit will be second to none.

Wilder is a good tactician and manager for the Blades usually (but fairly shit everywhere else) but he has a habit of throwing others under the bus to deflect blame from himself which can be his undoing.

Thanks mate, it's appreciated. Other than the the exhaustion from it all though, I'm tiptop health wise. It's my other half that is where the worry lies as she isn't very well at all unfortunately. Football is a welcome distraction though, even if the result last night was very unwelcome.🙄

Many "fully expected" us to get a result against you, at the end of your worst run and our best.🤣 If there's any way on Earth for us to lose this game, we'll find it. If the stars somehow align and we actually win this and break the hoodoo I think every Boro fan alive will believe we're going up🤣
