I like Ramsey as a player but he has to stay fit and he is definitely a bit of a sick note

Boro v Bristol City 1-2 (Silvera)
Rishworthian replied to OldManGravz's topic in Match Day Threads 2023/24 Season
Fascinating stuff boys but try this one for size !! I saw Bristol city at Ayresome Park and playing for them was John Atyeo 1950 something I'd guess -
AR If we spent the entire week in lead up saying we're struggling for a team and all our best players are injured it is no surprise to me that we lose. We spent the time telling ourselves that we are going to lose, in effect. It becomes a self fulfilling prophesy. The fact that Ipswich have a very good defensive system certainly doesn't help. The fact that our players and management could not fathom out their tactics and negate/nullify them during the game says little for our adaptability

The constant negativity must have had some effect. It has been a tidal wave all week. If you cant think positively - you can't be positive. That includes not only players but management team also It is always good to have one player on the field who doesn't accept defeat "leader" if you like. That could have made a lot of difference Did their defensive system offer us any pointers that might benefit us ?

Now you've got me working RA. playing surface is c 525 ft -= West Brom about 550 ft and no 3 is Oldham at 509 ft. I don't see the height as a major problem I'm about 700 ft up in the Pennines - Stoke area is usually a couple of degrees F warmer than we are with slightly less water than we get. they are not great at Snow shifting on the roads mind

For those that havn't looked it up yet Port Vale is in Burslem just north of Stoke. It is the second highest ground in the EFL ( West Brom is the highest) Two car parks one at the upper level behind the main stand and the other at the lower - something of a natural amphitheater. Port Vale nearly made the FA cup final from the third division but beaten strangely enough by West Brom 1954? so they may have cup form

I'm not familiar with this incident, However, if you are daft enough to invade the pitch when you have been repeatedly warned of the consequences, then on your own head be it. Doesn't matter if it is soft or not If you damage a multi million £££ player the club would have a pretty good reason for such a policy

Bradford vs Middlesbrough 0-2 (Latte Lath, Rogers)
Rishworthian replied to MRe's topic in Match Day Threads 2023/24 Season
It will be interesting to see what team Bradford put out. It was very noticeable on Saturday that they suddenly won 4-1 away. Andy Cook returned from Injury ! If he plays we will not keep a clean sheet. I assume that MC will keep the core of Saturdays team and rest those who need it (ie Jones) -
hope they're not looking for a Bank Account

Seems to me that it doesn't matter what Coulson does he's rubbish Can't see Rogers scoring too many why does no one pick on him ? -
Digger - do what the hell you like. I turned off all the Boro information at the end of last season and didn't put it on again until the week we signed those 5 players in a week. I wish I'd turned it back off then too. Page after page of turgid rubbish can do nobody any good. If I can get a game in this season that will be 70 years watching the buggers. That's enough for anyone. Imagine my mental health problems keep smiling mind

Brunners if Millwall were watching and we played those two. Imagine what would happen. They do have to learn to cope with that sort of player (s) in the Championship. I was a little concerned that they did not seem to have been briefed and told how to combat it Hopefully Fry and Lenihan can keep a lid on what ever Millwall throw at us. Whilst I was happy to give McNair the max run out I did wonder if the young lad from Man City might have had the rule run over him even if only for the last half hour or so -

Having slept on it all I'm encouraged by Izzy, Gilbert, Silvera and Nkrumah. They have done their chances of a 1st team spot no harm I feel sorry for Stotty and Glover and I'm not sure of Hannah and VdB. They were given a very large and physical bunch and did not cover themselves with glory. It is good experience for them mind. Paddy ,. Coulson and Payero could be good players in a good side Hoppe is a definite don't know but he could be a good player but as a striker It seems not -

Gilbert is a bonny player from what I've seen - different class to Richards and Hoppe and Richie still has all his old habits
