It's possible to acknowledge that progress has been made while agreeing that there are also serious concerns People increasingly seem to take polarised positions on any subject and see everything in black and white. Fully agree. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Boro do look rather average it is true but they will compete in the play offs; cannot see them going up but with Pulis they at the very least have a chance whereas before he arrived they had none.

Do you really do that?! Ugh! And it’s a bit desperate to revel in the hope of another team’s misfortune rather than realising what is happening to your own...

Having large bags of parachute money always helps -in wages and transfers. Just look at the cash slooshing around the Top 6. You really have to go mad and balls it all up to d a Sunderland. the exception rather than the rule. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

ScottishRed Posted April 14, 2018 Report Share Posted April 14, 2018 12 minutes ago, Numero Uno said: Our plan B is hoof ball and if you’re going to play that way, as shit as it is, at least do it properly, have runners and players around the ball to pick up the second balls. We just look like a side that normally plays football just smashing it anywhere!! That’s our Plan B. If Johnson doesn’t learn quickly and we start next season poorly Man U and Man C will be long forgotten and he will be under serious pressure. I would rather that wasn’t the case but two horrendous and prolonged runs in two seasons makes me wonder if he had what it takes. The reality is that he won't, no matter how we start. As we are all well aware LJ would not be the HC of this club if he did not have a close friendship with the owner and his family. There is nothing, repeat nothing on his CV as a manager to have attracted BCFC to him back in Feb 16 other than the above. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Why present that as fact when there's nothing factual about it? Took Oldham to higher than they've been on any matchday since he left, did alright with Barnsley and was on an upward trajectory. I'm sure the managers were queuing up when we were third bottom with a squad that had no investment. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

BobBobSuperBob Posted April 14, 2018 Report Share Posted April 14, 2018 Interesting to hear Lee blame injuries for the bad run, resources compared to others , no room to wiggle ... So that’s why you didn’t use Woodrow , Engvall , Elliasson , Vyner , etc etc even when we had injuries Dear oh dear Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Nah. Did our round last week. Ran about a bit but never actually picked up the bin. When someone handed him in the recycling, he accidentally lobbed it over the back of the truck.

Somertonian Posted April 14, 2018 Report Share Posted April 14, 2018 Middlesbrough is in Cleveland - not North Yorkshire. If you still can’t find they are north of Bristol, nestled between Aston Villa and Millwall. S Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
REDOXO Posted April 14, 2018 Report Share Posted April 14, 2018 There were times today we looked out numbered 13/11. Short passing football into trouble and the eventual hoof forward. Ok ok but taking Djuric off nullified the hoof. Sigh! Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Middlesbrough was in the historic North Riding of Yorkshire but is not in the modern county of North Yorkshire. Back to the match, LJ was trying to be too clever with the formation in the first half. We looked loads better in the second when we started playing more like we did at the beginning of the season. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
