Are you drunk? You didn’t even know we beat Everton - it’s not going well is it?

So if BB win 1-0, technically they can be promoted with a negative goal diff?

Seems wrong. Would be a future trivia question wouldn’t it: “Which team got promoted with …..”

I’m surprised you know who he is. Actually you probably think he’s Bobby Gould. It seems your faculties are going

You probably need a rest. It’s getting a bit much for you

Middlesbrough are up the top in terms of stats for being long ball merchants. Didn’t know that. I think that suits our back 3.

Long raking balls in behind to absolutely electric strikers would not be something I'd want our back 3 to face (which is what boro do)

It will be very hard for us mentally not to play for a draw.
Let’s hope for some early magic to at least get us something to defend.
Whatever it’s been a great season under difficult circumstances.

tbf the hit to Gyokeres, let him try and take on the world has worked pretty well so far, so no reason it won;t again.

We've actually been set up pretty conservatively most of the season, so don't have worries in that respect.

I would, but the challenge is getting him straight up to speed, isn't it. Godden on 60-ish if we need a goal and / or the game's getting stretched seems ideal to me but... better to keep the side that's played well the past two games I guess.

Would say it depends how we set up.

Just one striker then yes for sure. Of we set up to hit on the counter then most probably.

Not a bad player to have choices about

Those of us that survived through the 80's and 90's have many stories to tell. Like the season we had to win our last 3 games to have a chance of survival including Liverpool last game of the season where they were the best side in Europe. Thumped them at home to stay up

Keep it tight - M'Boro fans (though noisy) are hardly going to be pumped for this game. Keep the crowd quiet.

Just got in, catching up on what has gone on so far today.. Was that guy who got sent off for Boro a 1st team regular?
Click to expand...
Was last season less so this season.

He did a number on Vic at their place iirc. And his name is pronounced Dicksteel by commentators which is mildly amusing

It's been a long beery day in the sun I'm struggling...

Need all the info laid out to get my head around it.

Middlesbrough v Cov
Millwall v Blackburn
Swansea v WBA
Preston v Sunderland

A point and we are in.

we lose a draw wouldn't be enough for WBA or Sund.

Millwall could overtake us by drawing and a 5 goal swing

WBA need a win and a 5 goal swing to pip us

Sunderland need a win and 2 goal swing

On paper we should be confident but I have got to say my arse will be like a blackbirds beak come 3pm Monday
