Ipswich & Hull playing midweek too. Possibly going to be a very slender lead come next weekend.

I think Hull are going to get automatic. So consistent

Going to put my balls in a vice during the next game. Every time we do something ridiculous or silly I’m going to give it a quarter turn. Worst case scenario, I end up not being able to cruelly bring another Cov fan into this world.

Imagine being so far out in front, then losing out on autos to a team full of freebies.

The false modesty from this Boro guy is growing tedious. He’s no doubt buzzing beneath it all.

He’s trying to recruit more Boro fans and tbh, he has nearly converted me.

The other worst case scenario of course is I create a Turin Shroud type moment on a tea towel; Lampards face etched in blood and semen.

Forgot to mention that.

Nope. They are a worry for sure.

But it could drop off just like cov could pick up again

It's just some seem to think it's a foregone conclusion that we will keep losing till end of season that's all.

Kevin Keegan's Newcastle are the only team comparable to this in terms of blowing a lead.

Guys, my posting is erratic by the way because I am upset. I will recover!

I won’t be going to Middlesbrough unless they remove all of the hazardous waste and general smell of human fecal matter you get as you approach Billingham on the A19.

Hull overtaken them now and can't stop winning.

Congratulations to whoever doesn't bottle promotion this season anyway, hope they enjoy it.

As bad as that was, and no matter how worrying our form is, no point anyone crying about. We go again, regroup and start afresh next week. This group of players got us here, so we have to back them to turn things round. Have we been found out? It appears so, so work for the management team to do, but not throwing in the towel. Season starts next week, everyone connected with club should get their chins up - it's not over.

Nothing they are showing right now points to them having the confidence or belief to do so. The last 2 months performances have been insipid and inept

He would only have a year left on his contract? Can't see Doug paying him off. Even with a total collapse, we'll still make the play offs ( not what we want, at the moment). I'd still give him next season, even if we failed to go up. Then.....Let's see. It's not as if he's been given a war chest that others have had. Do agree that it would be maddening, considering the lead we had. The real concern is the away form dropping off a cliff. Hoping a new cm will help.

No issue with loosing today. The players have been incredible this season we’ve over achieved and didn’t expect to be here so well done them all.

All I would say is the signings were not in the starting lineup and that says everything, they have all been done on the cheap. Prob would of been better having 2 major signings and getting promoted as I don’t think the chance will come for a long time.

But….still incredibly proud of the boys and Frank

He’s spent almost £20m to be fair.

They were never top by anything like the same margin. Playoffs were in the bag for them for a long time too, playing as badly as this I have doubts we'll even make those.

If your balls are anything like our defence one will probably dart 30 yards forward leaving the other one on its own to face the onslaught.

There were very familiar feelings of hopelessness coming out of that game. Flatness, no drive, few ideas. It was much the same as the Norwich game in that respect: a very tough watch.

Richard Kone seemed to comfortably play in the central gap between Kitching and Thomas today, which interestingly is what I call each of my testes.

Really have no idea why we didn't sign him. He will be worth a huge amount in a year's time.

Well he’s absolutely ruined my day, so I hope he overcooks his frozen pizza later and gets a minor exertion headache from all the running around he did today, the twat.

This game seems to be a turning point where Frank comes fully under the spotlight. It's no good just talking about individual errors.
The system and the tactics have been wrong and unchanged for a few months now.
Thanks on Frank and his team.

It was a bit weird that when asked about the Norwich game he implied he didn't analyse it that much. Maybe the focus has been too much on coaching and not enough on analysis and tactics. It certainly looks that way. And that has to change.
