  1. Just so you are all aware the game was set up to get a feel for playing in an empty stadium. Players weren't allowed to be physical in certain situations etc

  2. I'd agree with this. In particular, we have lots of options in midfield which is where a lot of the running will be done so we can keep that fresh. We have a young team so fatigue will be less of an issue. Are we one of the better squads in the league? Absolutely not, but in our mini league in the bottom quarter I think theres plenty of room for optimism.

  3. They should be well used to that by now 😛

  4. Think it’s impossible to predict. It’s like starting again. So I expect to see some crazy results hopefully 10 points will see us safe but I have no idea where they’ll come from 🤷‍♂️

  5. True. Every season pre season friendly results are scrutinised but in truth they offer little indication of what we can expect when the real stuff starts.

  6. You could show Britt's goal and say the same, snippets from friendly games is really not gonna be a valuable indication of how the season will go

  7. The games are coming thick and fast once we get going again. There’s bound to be injuries and there will have to be plenty of changes to allow a bit of recharging of batteries. On that basis, it’s not just who we pick for first game - a good experienced manager would be planning likely teams for the first four or five matches taking into account the opposition strengths and weaknesses. Of course that does depend on having a good experienced manager!!! It does mean we might see what looks like one or two odd choices though. I would go for experience though, as a good start will be critical.

  8. No Moukoudi or Gestede either. Mouk must be injured considering his loan was ended. It wouldn't surprise me if the club decided the 35k a week to Gestede wasn't worth carrying on past the end of June with Britt, Fletch and Nmecha all fit. edit* Goals are here https://www.nufc.co.uk/nufc-tv/latest-videos/middlesbrough-h-friendly-highlights-19-20/ very easy goals conceded.

  10. No Ayala again in todays friendly with Newcastle. No George either. Of the out of contract players Clayts, Shotton and Marv played. 2-0 at halftime ended up losing 3-2 after making big changes at half time. I know it doesn't mean anything but we started with: Stojanovic.. Spence, Marv, Fry, Shotton.. Clayts, Saville, Rav.. Fletch, Nmecha, Britt.

  11. I’d normally expect 28 points from 27 but maths never was my strong point 😂

  12. Hazy Jane used to be great when it was original strength. Then Brewdog made it into a 5% brew which is poor. Got to go for the Hazy O-G at 7.2% or even better the Triple Hazy at 9.5%

  13. I dont think it should have been available to be seen by the fans to be honest.

  14. Same here, I literally have no clue and nothing would surprise me. I could see us getting anything as low as about 7-8 points and anything as high as 16-17. I think the teams who perform best will be the ones who are the best coached and who have the most motivated players which concerns me a little bit. The thing that gives me hope is that Charlton and Hull are in a mess plus Barnsley and Luton are very poor. It wouldn't surprise to see a few teams go on brilliant runs and some on terrible runs, I think this whole situation will effect different teams in very different ways.

  15. Some great brews coming out of York recently. I have drunk beers from Treboom, Ainsty, Rudgate and Brew York in the last few months.

  16. Hoping they'll vote to end League One today, but I'd guess that it's seen as less likely than it was because we've extended Browne's loan at Oxford.

  18. I've seen more competitive 5 aside games to be fair as I'm sure you have too. It was a training game that looked exactly like a training game, I wouldn't read too much into it.

      I think that says a great deal of how fans are feeling now It's completely flat being a boro fan for many reasons this season and we have retreated so much from last seasons high I for one can't wait for the season to be over! Few more wins and  I am looking forward to see the likes of luke Woolston getting a few chances by the end of the season. I'm sure this MDT will pick up at the end of today's result 🤣

      Cowans was a good player in a very good Villa side. Nicknamed Sid, I assume more to do with James than Vicious.

      It was also largely because Warnock understandably kept getting short term contracts. Last 8 games, then a 1 year deal, then another 1 year deal. The last one to have a contract extended that wasn't about to run out was Karanka in 2015.

      Does anyone know if Fin Cartwright has been injured over the last few months? Law McCabe has made the bench quite a bit but not really seen Fin there. Wouldn’t mind taking a look at him at some point before the end of the season - maybe an incentive for him to sign on if he really is the real deal.
