  1. Maybe VDB has been left out given that Blackburn like kicking our young centre backs in the face?
  2. Cheers AR, It was a vague link to the Cellnet sponsorship!
  3. A SCENE: It's Saturday 30th September in the year 1995. Mobile phones are the size of bricks. The Cellnet Riverside Stadium still smells new and the corners in the North West and South West don't exist yet. 29,462 football fans pack in to the stadium to watch the defending Champions of the Premier League play Bryan Robson's Mighty Boro. It's so long ago, both teams were only allowed to name three substitutes. At some point, I think I recall it being the first half, Super Jan Fjortoft finds himself face to face with Blackburn Rovers goal keeper Tim Flowers in the 18 yard box. In what appears t
  4. It'll be up tonight. Didn't get time yesterday but should early evening!
  5. PICTURE THIS: <The Riverside Stadium beautifully lit up on a dark night. This view is from the old Ayresome Park gates outside the West Stand. Through the open gates you can read "MIDDLESBROUGH FC" and below it "RIVERSIDE STADIUM." In the bottom left corner of the scene is an image of Tony Mowbray, Birmingham City Manager, looking defeated. Alongside him is a teary eyed Mark Venus, the man who is taking the reins at Brum while our Mogga recovers from his unnamed illness. They are both depicted below an image of the Birmingham City badge that the club used from 1905 to 1936 (I chose to repre
  6. In the absence of a picture I've asked ChatGPT to paint a picture of the game for your eyes: FIRST HALF: The match would unfold with intensity and excitement, showcasing the skill and determination of both sides. As the game kicks off, both teams would look to assert their dominance early on, with QPR aiming to utilize their attacking prowess while Middlesbrough focuses on their organized defense and counter-attacking strategy. Throughout the match, there would be moments of flair and brilliance from individual players on both sides, as they strive to make an impact and create scoring opp
  7. Blank Space where there should be a picture but we're not allowed to put one on because of copyright or something... ... WHO: The Boro V Delia's Dynamos WHAT: another day in football paradise... WHERE: the home of... footballllll? WHEN: 19:45 Wednesday 6th March 2024 WHY: Who even knows anymore? INTRO BIT I thought I'd have a look at the MDT for the last time we played Norwich when we hammered them 5-1. Great times! Or so I thought... @RiseAgainstwas the author of said fixture and I found this sentence particularly reson
  8. Feeling a bizarre sense of optimism about this one. I say bizarre because I don’t think we’ll necessarily win, just think we’ll put up a good fight, won’t get totally smashed and might even, might possibly, could conceivably get something from it…
  9. WHO: BORO V COVENTRY CITY WHAT: CHAMPIONSHIP FIXTURE 26 WHERE: FORTRESS RIVERSIDE WHEN: NEW YEARS DAY 2024 @ 1500 WHY: BECAUSE WE BOTH MESSED UP IN THE PLAYOFFS 😭 THE BIT WHERE I SAY MY BIT: So, here we find ourselves, merely months after facing Coventry City for a chance to play with the billionaires in the Premiership, facing Coventry City with eyes on getting to where we got to last season. Football is an emotive game. I could look back at what could've been and get all teary and pathetic about it all. Just think, we could've been up there, in the botto
  10. WHO: Huddersfield v The Boro WHAT: The final Championship match of 2023 WHERE: The "Have It" Stadium WHEN: 19:45 Friday 29th December 2023 WHY: Football INTRODUCTION: Well, what a year it's been. Looking back to this time last season, it feels like there was a lot more of that fleeting football emotion: optimism. Fast forward to the same time this year, we're more or less in exactly the same position we were then. 3 points from the playoffs. Last year we were all aboard the Chuba Express and Carrick's Crusaders were charging up the table. This seaso
  11. @Downsouth Any chance I can skip my go? Got a lot on at work so don’t really have time to get something together before Friday evening. Plus, I can’t watch or listen on Saturday either. Happy to do it, if it’s not possible to swap.
  12. I don’t know how to feel about this one. Hopeful, as ever, for a win. But not confident! Not sure if we’ll win, lose or draw. But sure it will be one of those outcomes.
