cityexile Posted April 19, 2019 Report Share Posted April 19, 2019 77% possession by Leeds v ten men, 36 shots ( not sure I have seen more) and lost. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
pillred Posted April 19, 2019 Report Share Posted April 19, 2019 If you think we feel bad imagine being a Leeds fan can't beat 10 man Wigan. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
When the river runs Posted April 19, 2019 Report Share Posted April 19, 2019 We will be playing them in the play offs now, if we make it. That was a terrible result for them and I think they've fluffed it for automatic now. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
daored Posted April 19, 2019 Report Share Posted April 19, 2019 It’s in our hands , IF we win all our games we finish sixth. Its up to us: Boro’s fixtures: Forest (a) Reading (h) Rotherham (a) Last two fixtures against teams with something to play for, as seen today with Leeds & Wigan no result is guaranteed Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Forest have the quality very much just a case of who turns up for them. I don't think Boro will pick up 9 points so comes down to our game with Derby really.

Just need WBA to beat Reading in Monday so that they still have something to play for at Boro on Sat Then, need Rotherham to beat Brum at home on Monday so that they claw-back Millwall and Reading! All if’s and but’s......but think that the home draws against Reading and especially Wigan will end up costing us a top six finish Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Lrrr Posted April 20, 2019 Report Share Posted April 20, 2019 Middlesbrough lost at home to Brentford, drew with Millwall and Rotherham at home, drew away at Wigan. Derby lost to Millwall at home, drew away at Ipswich, lost away at Bolton, Millwall and Rotherham so its not just us saying 'if we'd only got more points' against whatever team Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

The need for a new keeper has nothing to do with his performance at Villa. Fairly certain FF/NM out of contact in the summer. So that makes signing a keeper a priority.

Hampshire reds Posted April 22, 2019 Report Share Posted April 22, 2019 huge day for the championship play off position. we need at least a point as derby surely will get 3 agsinst QPR. Boro have a tough one at forest. coyr. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
mozo Posted April 22, 2019 Report Share Posted April 22, 2019 So if Boro lose at Forest, we draw and Derby win, all three teams will be level on 67 points. Boro will have 2 games left, us and derby 3 games but playing each other next. Now that would be tasty. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

downendcity Posted April 22, 2019 Report Share Posted April 22, 2019 What we have left: Sheff W v Bristol City Derby v Bristol City Millwall v Bristol City Hull v Bristol City There's one team in that fixture list that worries me more than the rest, and it's the same team that has worried me for the last 50 years!

I expect we will offer NM a new contract, max has proved he has what it takes so why would we need 3 keepers (yes I know what happened earlier) rather spend the money on a decent striker.

77 punk Posted April 22, 2019 Report Share Posted April 22, 2019 if we go to next saturday level on points with boro and derby we would have done very well to go into the last three games chasing a play off place i do not think anybody honestly could see that last summer Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

petehinton Posted April 22, 2019 Report Share Posted April 22, 2019 For me, we absolutely have to start Eliasson against Derby. They can’t defend balls into the box. Will cause havoc. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

A lot has to happen before NM puts pen to paper. I am sure we are looking at the open market for a keeper. If the right kind of player is available I am sure we will go for it on a longer term contract. Just my thought. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
