Jamie-H 1,322 Posted July 8, 2020 Share Posted July 8, 2020 So it's Bristol, Reading (MASSIVE), Cardiff and Sheff Weds to go if we squeak 2 wins out of that we're safe. If wigan ever do get deducted we might just need 1 win and a draw. Link to post Share on other sites

wilsoncgp 9,229 Posted July 8, 2020 Share Posted July 8, 2020 Just now, TeaCider24 said: Shotton MotM for me. Aye, same for me I reckon. They have put some dangerous balls into the box and we have had a couple of moments where others' defending has been poor and he's covered up for him. Sweeping up well, doing a good job to keep us a clean sheet. Stojanovic done a decent job to make sure of that too. Howson much more efficient in midfield again, too.

SouthernSmoggie 4,223 Posted July 8, 2020 Share Posted July 8, 2020 Huge effort. Every player can walk off with their head held high - but Shotton was bloody immense. 1 Link to post Share on other sites
thomas 501 Posted July 8, 2020 Share Posted July 8, 2020 Get in, that feels so good. Well deserved Boro and nice one Warnock think he got that one right, but there was something Ive been pondering this half, are we better against better opposition as they then dont try drag us down to their level?

TheJew 2,886 Posted July 8, 2020 Share Posted July 8, 2020 What a result that was. We are definitely most suited to a 352. Excellent performance. Shotton was brilliant at the back. Link to post Share on other sites

DurhamRed 2,043 Posted July 8, 2020 Share Posted July 8, 2020 It's performances like this that has made it so frustrating following boro this year as if the side actually turns up and fights they can beat anyone in this division shown at Westobrom Preston and today! Should no way be in the relegation dogfight with this squad as they have the ability Link to post Share on other sites
boro-unger 3,811 Posted July 8, 2020 Share Posted July 8, 2020 Must mention Stoj's saves at 0-0. Would have been a very different game if he hadn't made them 6 Link to post Share on other sites

Neverbefore 10,695 Posted July 8, 2020 Share Posted July 8, 2020 I gave shotton stick for a couple of slip ups but hes my motm too. Thought everyone did their jobs though. It wasnt pretty and I'd hate to see us play like this over the course of a season (mainly because I have for 2 seasons already) but needs must. Good win and strong performance as a team.

Brunners 7,952 Posted July 8, 2020 Share Posted July 8, 2020 Yep, thought we would get battered, but that is the fight that was missing vs Hull & QPR. We won so many second balls, crunched into tackles, played some nice balls and some good stuff at times. Two well taken goals (even if Fletch should have scored the initial chance). Great games from Fletch, Britt, Howson, Shotton, Johnson and Stojanovic (his best game I think). Shotton for MOTM for me, cleaned up at the back and was a rock all game. 2 Link to post Share on other sites
