It was the reverse in the first half. Boro looked equally as poor, so many loose passes. It was a pretty low quality affair all round.
Stoke looked lost second half.
Id say over half the passes ended at a boro players foot
We got away with one last night. First half was as bad as i have seen us this season, nobody could pass a ball. Thankfully Stoke dont have much going forward at the minute.
Much better second half and glad to get it out the way. Conway to finish top scorer now.......
Preston saturday in the lunch time kick off.
He actually fluffed his shot but by fluke it set him up. When it's going your way, it's really going your way.Conway. Golden Boot?
Yes the one who knew how our club should be run. Disappeared around the time Barnsley got relegated I think
If it wasn't obvious that was very tongue in cheek - i mean he tried his best to miss that one last night....I was with you until you said Conway for GB
If it wasn't obvious that was very tongue in cheek - i mean he tried his best to miss that one last night....
Chuffed for him though, work rate, effort is incredible but it just has not happened in front of goal which is ultimately his job. Alongside someone he will be an asset
Hopefully he chips in with a few more vital goals in the coming weeks

Yeah, but it was only a week or so ago that many on here were saying Watford were the ones to watch and that they could well take one of the automatic promotion places.I wish Hull would bugger off so we can almost guarantee 2 from 3, they're in great form too.
All of the top sides winning, it's as you were, but another game ticked off. Pressure could be on Monday night if Boro and Ipswich get a result at the weekend and we know how bad we are at Norwich. I suspect we'll get something from QPR away and I expect us to beat Oxford at home, then the real big one could be that home game v Boro.
I expect Ipswich to go up in one of the automatics and I think if we beat Boro at home, I would expect us to join them, but still think that's a pivotal game and our recent record against them counts for nothing.
On the upside. If ever we get low about Coventry being a bit of a dump… Hull is a right shit holeI wish Hull would bugger off so we can almost guarantee 2 from 3, they're in great form too.

They have good fish and chips though so cant have everything.On the upside. If ever we get low about Coventry being a bit of a dump… Hull is a right shit hole

@Kris_Boro @Ipad Boro whats the craic w Viveash? He seemed integral to Gibson’s rebuild plans (I heard last week that it was Carrick’s refusal to agree to AVs arrival that sealed his fate) and his stock looked v high after Edwards left but I get the impression that he’s been somewhat isolated by Hellberg bringing in a whole new team of underlings.
Anyroadup, I know how easy it is to misjudge from the outside so while you’re both here I thought I’d enquire.
I agree, i've also got Ipswich going up along with us or Middlesbrough. As long as we don't lose the home game with Middlesbrough i'd have us to edge it.I wish Hull would bugger off so we can almost guarantee 2 from 3, they're in great form too.

Got upset if you called them "Barnsleyona"Yes the one who knew how our club should be run. Disappeared around the time Barnsley got relegated I think
I suspect that game will be moved
Actually there is a scenario of Cov and Boro putting together an extended winning run, drawing with each other and leaving Ipswich behind in the dust with their long run of away games. We can dreamBoro are the form team at the moment, he did the dirty on you but Edwards leaving was the best thing to happen to you - Imo you had peaked under him and I was not one bit worried about you when he was your manager, I feel you are a better side under this new manager and he is more tactically astute
In an ideal world would like Boro to go up with us, spent 3 years in the area at Teesside University so got a lot of Boro mates, combine that with the competitive games over the last few years and I feel like Boro have been joined at our hips for the last 7 or so years of my life so it would be a nice full circle moment for us to go up to the Prem in the same season... But until we are mathematically over the line I hope you keep dropping points

I’m not sure you realise how much of a ‘hoodoo’ Norwich are!We have won four in a row in the league
Southampton
West Brom
Stoke
Preston
Scoring 13 and conceding 3.
That makes it 12 games under Hellberg, 8 wins and 1 draw and 3 defeats
Strangely, three of the recent games have seen some of our worst performances but the stats show a free scoring team. Hard to take too much away from Saturday, Preston where beyond dreadful, we took full advantage but it was on a plate for us.
Best news (Apart from Conway making it 3 in 2 games) is seeing Brittain, Fry and Mcgree back in the squad. Brittain has been our best player this season. Sarmiento about done as well so with a bit of luck we have this team lining up
Brynn
Brittain
Fry
Malanda
Targett
Morris
Hackney
Whittaker
Mcgree
Sarmiento
Conway
With a strong bench i will be feeling much more comfortable than i have been during a tough spell with injuries. Still hope to see a striker signed. Its unlikely Mcgree will stay fit for the rest of the season.
Over the moon Ipswich got beat, puts us back in control of second even with their game in hand.
Over to you lot tonight, a tough fixture. Norwich definitely appear to have turned a corner. Win and you must be confident of top 2, which i think you will.
Awful those teams that no matter how you are doing or they are, they still beat you.I’m not sure you realise how much of a ‘hoodoo’ Norwich are!
That's why Norwich have got the better of us in recent years, too. For most of the time, they've been a parachute club, so have just had a better team than us.albeit you have just been better than us to be fair.
Drawn one and lost the rest at Carrow Road since we re-entered this division. Just hideous.Awful those teams that no matter how you are doing or they are, they still beat you.
In this division for thats Bristol City and more recently yourselves - albeit you have just been better than us to be fair. Bristol could be rock bottom and id still fancy them.
It was Stoke until the last two seasons. They turned into prime Barcelona whenever we played them. I remember Will Smallbone playing like Zidane.
Anyone remember the Bury fan in here who reckoned his club had a great business plan...(renting out car parks was it?!)
The parking spaces themselves generate no income, and the Company must have therefore utilised other income streams to pay the sub under-lease rents.
@Ipad Boro Have fun with Ipswich and Wrexham next year mate
There's no fat bint even clearing her throat, never mind singing yet mate.@Ipad Boro Have fun with Ipswich and Wrexham next year mate
Fair play mate you are more positive than most on here!There's no fat bint even clearing her throat, never mind singing yet mate.
Last night's game for you was just a fulfilling of a Hoodoo more than anything and you know how much Boro fans believe in those! A Hoodoo can be maintained by playing shite, opponents performing out of their boots, having a raft of injuries, heaps of bad luck, anything.
Very very occasionally Hoodoos are even broken. But it's never likely.
