  1. On the losing side but I think Wallace has been outstanding in parts. Often mooted as a signing for us, I certainly wouldn't complain ... 😊
  2. Yeah, with Muniz he tweeted didn't he few days ago how he is looking forward to meeting his Fulham team mates ... can't believe for a while beginning of last week people thought there were still a chance he was coming here 🤣 There's GOT to be alternatives we are aware of who could do the job he would've done here if he arrived, considering the money we had seemingly to bring him in. I hope we manage to find someone who will be equally as exciting or at least of great potential, someone else on the list, could've been who Warnock was texting the other day? haha Can't wait until
  3. Shame @diggerlad07 feels the need to step away from this forum. Merely passing on information about footballers that may be joining the club, and in return gadgies in a tantrum have to have a pop at him because it isn't Viduka, Hasselbaink, Rochemback .. or even if he posted about a transfer that isn't going to happen, so what?!? 🤣 I aren't a regular poster on this board, I contribute to the fun now and then on FMTTM (good grief, I've only realised it's almost decades!) but I have always looked at this forum for many years and appreciated the information the likes of diggerlad and others
  4. From Boupendza to Toyosi Olusanya 🤣 If he comes though, best of luck to the lad. We must be running out of options and our main targets. even second choice etc have been hard to make happen.. shame. I'd have thought we'd be able to get Bolasie to come back at the very least, if we really are struggling come near deadline considering there appeared to be funds to finance another deal or two including the striker we were chasing .. finances in football etc is not my forte though, clearly! There's still time though, I just hope something will still work out. I love a good wildcar
  5. Aye, that's fair enough. I wasn't one of the Southgate naysayers pre-Euros though, always been pleased with his progress in charge of the national team. Just getting the impression people are getting frustrated with this window now and panicking, to sum it up what I posted. Haha. I just hope by the end of the window folk are more content with who has come in. I am a bit worried but happy to just let the window play out, we dunno what will happen yet. I've always been a big fan of NW and want us to challenge in his last season, would be wonderful to see him go out on a high by getti
  6. Be a joke if it is ha ha ha 🤣 Wish they'd just tell us the name of the guy whoever it was. Sure we've moved on by now.
  7. Same .. starting to get a bit worried to be honest. Thought we'd have had one or two more in by now or at least have heard something more solid about our real targets. Can't go into this season with what we have now and expect to mount any sort of challenge. The foundations are in place finally for things to turn out a bit better in the long term with the fella from Norwich coming in, but short term, being realistic we're just set up with a squad good enough for mid-table this season, without wanting to sound harsh. Was getting the impression NW wanted us to have a proper go in his l
  8. The thing with Ameobi is really annoying isn't it. I keep forgetting we've signed him tbh .. I hope we see him sooner than later as we need him available. Marcus Browne injured long-term is disappointing too .. he will feel like a new signing (again!) when he gets back playing 🤣. I think the kid is a smart player, NW was getting a tune out of him. Would have defo been an asset and played a big part in this season if he was available, I think. I hope Akpom finally moves on soon as we'll know there's a replacement due but sounded like he was gone the other week, yet still here. Tra
  9. Still want to know who this mystery striker was, the one playing in Europe that would have surprised Boro fans .. I'm guessing that one no longer has legs 😊 It won't have been Sturridge. He is likely somewhere abroad and didn't even hear about the rumours linking him with us.. 🤣 Never mind. I am still hoping there is a chance that Boupendza arrives, if it's true he is on our watch list .. I know it's just going off videos and a few comments about him, but watching the highlight reels of his attacking play and goals really excites me and think NW would get a right tune out of him in the
  10. Starting to think the Sturridge thing has got out of hand after just a bit of Twitter gossip. It isn't true is it?? 🤣 Shall we just move on...
  11. Haha, indeed. It's been a while since I have felt more assured that we're going in the right direction. We were fantastic on Sunday vs Fulham, I thought. Second season in a row we've played the favourites away on opening game, coming down from the Premier League. The lads acquitted themselves wonderfully. Just as Watford away last season, we made a statement. That Ikpeazu doesn't half cause bother up top. He got some pelters after the game, but I thought he more than played his part in us bringing a point back home from Craven Cottage. Was never going to be easy. I was expecting a
  12. I'm still more excited by Boupendza than Sturridge but the latter does fit the striker that the Gazette mentioned would be a surprise to Boro fans.. No way can I see both signing. If one of the two do at least, I'll be very happy with that .. money in wages for both still just makes it still feel too much for what we're capable of paying now. Can only see how it pans out I guess. Been so long since we've had an interesting transfer window, if we get the bodies in we need and they are of quality of the players mentioned then it is FAR more than I was anticipating we'd manage when th
  13. Pretty much mate hahaha One tweet that had the most responses was a list of our signings to come by end of the window. Both Bolasie and Sturridge were on there, even Boupendza 🤣
  14. I just picked a few bits up on Twitter. More 'my mates girlfriend works at Rockliffe' types saying Sturridge has been isolating here. Sounds like usual rubbish but yer never know I guess!
  15. Can't see anything about Sturridge and us just looking about for rumours other than here haha 🤣 Would be surprised if he is the 'surprise' striker, tbh. Doubt he is. Very much hope Boupendza is on our list and we'd have a chance if he was, but just seems like agent talk at most so far. Hope we add similar quality in both areas regardless of what happens but I dunno where the money would come from!
  16. Was looking past day or so for updates on Boupendza .. All went silent after that bit of noise linking him with us last week, I kinda got my hopes up. I think he is just what we need and if we managed to bring him in after Payero I'd be delighted with our business so far in the window .. Guess we will be looking at other options, judging from reports so far. I would have been surprised if he chose us over a PL move or other team in Europe playing Europa League to be fair 🤣
  17. So glad the season is back, buzzing and can't wait to see what teams are like over the weekend. I'll be more than happy with a point at Fulham ... Neil suggesting they'll be the best side this season or at least one for the top two positions in his thoughts. Would be surprised if we snatch 3 points there at minute with our squad how it is but we just never know I guess. I am very interested in this Boupendza link... keep checking back to see if there are any more developments haha. Having watched him on a few videos and seen some snippets from the press over there regarding links with us
  18. Boupendza signing would excite me, hope there is truth in it that looks like we're in for him .. he looks brilliant from the highlight reels I've watched and would be surprised to be honest, if we beat competition to bring him here. Payero followed by him and a left back/one or two others would be far more than anything I was expecting this Summer. Watching Boupendza I got the feeling he'd be going to one of the relegated sides with the parachute money or a PL team more likely than us. Interesting developments to keep an eye on for sure.
  19. Newy is defo more glass half-full compared to me as the window ticks by 🤣, but I would be perfectly happy with a point away to Fulham Sunday and think we can achieve that with what we have in the squad currently. The window is still open though and I am hoping that whoever else comes in, the panic will be over among a lot of us about the team we're going to end up with. Glad the Payero deal was done, and hope this mystery striker name we're looking at bringing in is an exciting name that we will beat others to and one we'll be chuffed with. Another one or two in addition, and we sh
  20. That would be great😊 .. a lot slate Howe but I'd like him at the Boro.
  21. Someone on fmttm said they may as well just replay one of the last few press conferences, it'll be the same drivel as usual from Woodgate about the Forest game. How sad that Gibson has just let this carry on. Too late to bring in a new manager anyway, probably. We're going to get relegated and all season it's just been silent from the top. The club has lost its soul, total mess.
  22. zero chance he's resigning 😡
