I reckon we will see Shipley again to give O'Hare a little rest, then launch O'Hare to run at their tiring defence along with Waggy later

Personally id prefer O Hare to start but his first year with us on loan in League One, he was way more effective coming on as a sub later in the game.

He wasn’t he started something like 7 of the last 9 which ended up sealing promotion and overall started more than he didn’t - it’s an urban myth

From what I can remember of Middlesbrough; One huge factory, long soulless highways connecting places and the sea.

Has Hamer recovered from knock? If not I expect O’Hare to replace. If Hamer for o expect shippers to drop to bench

Can only remember big roads and not a lot else around from when I went in 2011. Although when I went to that FA Cup game at Hartlepool, I got lost somewhere between there and Middlesbrough. Resembled pics I’ve seen of Chernobyl and Pripyat

Never gonna happen away from home against this lot. If it had been another home game after Stoke I think Robins would but need the extra body in middle

Shipley is barely even a body when he plays AM, Waghorn a bit deeper will at least press and take the ball from the DMs.

He also creates the space for Vik to exploit.

Bench looks a bit like we've got a few out. I'm assuming Shipley is starting at WB and Eccles in CM alongside Sheaf with Allen and O'hare in front of them.

Please go on. The more ppl slag him off the better he seems to do I don't disagree btw, but it's clearly what Robins is going for and Shipley has done ok last few

It’ll be the team that finished against Stoke but with Shipley in for Waghorn. Eccles RWB Bidwell LWB

No I think its clearly the box but I can't figure out which way round Shipley and Allen will be.

Cannot say I am feeling confident right now, but we know how it works. Doom and gloom in the build up and we´ll probably go and win.

For that reason, I am saying 5-0 to Middlesbrough.

I used to see a girl from Stockton many, many years ago - I went up there once and it was genuinely one of the worst places i've ever been.
