  1. Yeah it’s a fair point, he might turn out great. Just a gamble isn’t it, we’re relying on Lath being the player we hope he is, and if that fails then we’re relying on Coburn stepping up. Would have loved a more proven CF, but apart from that happy with our business.
  2. Really happy with the window except we’re very short up front. Big gamble on Lath being our Archer ‘replacement’ from last year. If he’s off form or gets injured, then we’re relying on Coburn or Crooks. Honest question as I don’t think I know the answer, but is Coburn actually good enough to be consistent in this league? I think if he wasn’t from Boro he wouldn’t be thought of anywhere near as much as people do. Crooks up front just isn’t the answer, especially now we’re missing Akpom, as his goal tally covered over the cracks of our faltering strike force until Archer came i
  3. Just on lunch - any credible links to players today or do you think we’re done?
  4. I genuinely think that if we got O'Brien and Cannon in that we've actually had a good transfer window, and smartly managed, fitting with the new sustainable model we're trying to create.
  5. Not sure whether Sam Greenwood is any good or not purely because I'd never heard of him until this morning. Lewis O'Brien is quality though, I'd be really happy with that loan. Are there any other rumours of incomings from the ITK clan?
  6. Just catching up with the ITK chat from earlier on. For those who said things are happening at an advanced stage but couldn’t say, could they not say because they’ve been told not to, or could they not say because they didn’t know anything other than ‘somethings happening’?
  7. Does anyone know what the craic is with the digital season ticket? I assumed it would just update it in your wallet, but mine still says Millwall on it. Have we got to download it from the MFC website every week?
  8. There’s little evidential substance to back this opinion, but I’d actually be at peace with selling Akpom for a reasonable price (£12m or over) if it meant we could get in a good CF and LB. As amazing as Akpom was last year, I actually think Rogers would do well as the 10, with McGree for back up if needed. Even playing McGree as the 10 would mean we could play Silvera on the LW as he looks really promising. IF we bought and had a fully fit Ross Stewart, and had Silvera - Rogers/McGree - Jones behind I think that’s a really effective front four. If Akpom’s going
  9. I’d be disappointed if Carrick played Crooks and Rogers again as 10 and 9, felt like they were both in each others way trying to play the same position. Desperate for an out and out striker.
  10. Really disappointing but no need for meltdown at this point. The game just exposed what we already knew in what we’re missing in terms of injuries and lack of recruitment. Thought Dieng and Lenihan were good, Barlaser had a poor game, and Crooks was ineffective but didn’t really play that bad. Akpom fit, new CF and a new LB and we’re a top 6 team. Automatics is dreamland.
  11. No chance the game will be called off, stopped raining now and plenty of time to shift the surface water before kickoff. Like someone said, very rare a championship game gets called off for rain (R’ham v Cardiff aside).
  12. Honestly can’t gauge how I’m feeling going into this game and the season in general. It’s difficult not to feel a bit pessimistic with losing the loan players who were so integral to our season last year, and with Chuba and Howson injured. That being said, we’ve still got a great manager and last years football was the best brand I’ve seen Boro play for years, so I’m hoping that we can kick on from that and that the signings we have made willl turn out to be gems. Still got a great spine with the likes of Fry, Hackney, Lenihan and McGree, so f*** if I’m going
  13. Don’t post much anymore, but still read the threads from time to time. Came on here to see some hopeful news on transfer rumours/dealings and instead it’s a debate on politics, and a pretty petty one at that. I have no political views really, but could we put it in a politics thread so everyone can get all high and mighty on there and someone give me some good rumours on here (whether they’re true or not 🙂 ) I’d expect better of the moderators not to fuel the fire also - just saying!
  14. Aaron Cresswell just been linked with Wolves in the Telegraph - further putting Giles down the pecking order.....
  15. Daily Mail journalist for the West Midlands saying that Ryan Giles' future to be decided in the coming days. Makes it sound like he might be off again, I wonder what the chances are of a return? Could us letting Marc Bola go be an indication that Boro are confident they'd be in the driving seat should he go back out on loan again?
