Here's one for
@Ipad Boro .
Which Boro HOODOO is worse?
Bristol or Cov ?
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 would imagine would make us think of it as worse.
But I'm going to have to go Bristol City in general. As you've generally at least been a good side since the hoodoo began, not the cannon fodder saved for a "Typical Boro." Aside from their level for one match towards the back end of last season, Bristol City have been everywhere between middling and a complete bag of shit.
With most games against yourselves too, you usually perform out of your boots and have your best game of the season more often, so at least we can say you performed spectacularly on the day, so it took a real effort to beat us. Bristol City on the other hand have had the one of those I can recall, the others they have far more often been jammy as hell or just shithoused the match, kicking lumps out of players (while the ref seems to be doing his best impression of Mr Magoo) parking the bus all game.
We hit every upright and the bar a few times, they suddenly appear to have developed a time machine to stick Gordon Banks between the sticks, then hitting about two long balls to Riis who, instead of the usual carthorse he is for the other 44 games of the season, suddenly morphs into the John Arne version from Liverpool's past and hits an unstoppable effort into our net. Then cue more shithousery than a prison toilet block and more time wasting than Burnley last season until the final whistle blows, probably early, but let's face it we could have stayed out there until midnight and the result would be the same.
So Bristol City tend to shade it, just for the sheer frustration and knowledge that not only would another 4 nil to us have been the most fair score, but that Riis and the GK will return to being an utter pile of wank up in their very next game, which can sometimes be against a side around us we could do with them taking points off.
