Welcome To The Jungle Posted January 16, 2016 Report Share Posted January 16, 2016 Your team, your players did you proud today. It may not have been your system or first XI, but my goodness everyone of them played with their heart on their sleeve and made Boro look average. An emotional performance to a man. COYR!

Jesus Posted January 16, 2016 Report Share Posted January 16, 2016 How can that be for him? If that was for him, it's a bit of a kick in the teeth concidering they actually couldnt do that "for him" normally. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

JoeAman08 Posted January 16, 2016 Report Share Posted January 16, 2016 Yea I'm with everyone else. Happy with Cotts and all he done for us but that was for Bristol City. No one is bigger than the club even if they try to be. This is all we asked for. Some fresh faces, a new formation and new ideas. If Cotts would've done this he'd either still be here or failing still but tried everything and would've bought more patience from supporters for him and more pressure on the board. Was a good win and I hope Cotts is gracious enough to be happy for us today. Everyone deserved today's performance from the players to the staff and down to the fans. Showing we have the fight in us to stay up and push on. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Robbored Posted January 16, 2016 Report Share Posted January 16, 2016 Today's win was for the club as a whole but that doesn't apply to former manager Cotterill. He's been dismissed remember? As already pointed out today was about a different formation and two newish first team players in Reid and Burns. Two factors that Cotterill wouldn't entertain.

Esmond Million's Bung Posted January 16, 2016 Report Share Posted January 16, 2016 We played this formation at Derby FFS, if you don't believe it try listening to Pemberton's interview, he not only mentioned that but also said he had to think long and hard before using that formation today because we got done that night.

Away to one of the best sides in the league and he played a weakened team inc no Kodjia. Anyway, formation aside I know what I witnessed today that I haven't in the past few months. A reinvigorated team playing with confidence. To a man we looked like we believed we could win. That is why, as Pemberton says, SC will not be pleased to see today's result. Though deep down I agree I'm sure he's pleased. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Bs4Red Posted January 16, 2016 Report Share Posted January 16, 2016 I really hope the OP is banter? That performance was absolutely fantastic today. The players played with freedom and a hunger i haven't seen for a long time. This was nothing to do with Cotts and how fitting that Burns scored. Hope the boards decision will continued to be justified in the coming weeks. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Squire Dastardly Posted January 16, 2016 Report Share Posted January 16, 2016 Today was a different team, playing with a diffrent spirit, just like thay used to. Cotterill got it wrong this year, right from pre-season but was so convinced that he was right that he kept doing the same damn thing week after week after week. That's why he had to go. The world has already taken on a rosier hue. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Not sure it was. Reid and Burns started, we played a different formation and at 0-0 we went for it by pressing forward and putting a winger at left back. We played with pace, changed the formation and gave a performance that resembled nothing else we've seen this season. That was a performance by a team freed by the removal of a manager they had lost confidence in. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

As others have said. Absolute nonsense. The team were different today. In every sense. Cotterill was his own worst enemy. Last season was superb. This season - in so many respects - has been dire. I wanted him gone. I'm glad he is. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

pongo88 Posted January 16, 2016 Report Share Posted January 16, 2016 As others have said, this had little to do with Cotts. Boro must have expected an easy win against a poor 3 5 2 formation, but instead that were beaten by a team that was tactically aware. Burns starting and Waggy coming on as sub! I thought I was in a parallel universe Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
