Boro v Blackburn 0-1

[Downsouth 1,550]

Short corners and Boro do not work!

[RiseAgainst 1,038]

For about ten seconds, we looked like Barcelona with one-touch flicks around the box. Then we stuffed the corner and Boro were back.

I guess thats where we're different. I usually assume the worst of people when they do stuff like that.

I don't care if he's young, he should know better than to attempt to kick the ball when he can see someone else trying to head it.

I'm also not that angry right now. All I really care about is that he is punished after the game. Not out of revenge or spite, but to ram it home to him that he can't get away with doing crap like that.

He could have blinded a fellow pro today and he needs a big wake up call.

 

But he doesn't see him? He lifts his foot towards the ball and only sees Fry as his foot connects with him. The way you're putting it makes it sound intentional but I really can't see how it was, whether you assume the worst or not.

What we do agree on is that he has to be punished for it. Not to learn not to kick people in the head exactly, I don't think any professional footballer of any level of experience needs to learn you can't just kick people in the head. It's to learn that leaving a foot as high as that in the box is dangerous and can ultimately lead to what happened; seriously injuring a fellow professional.

I'm sure Mogga will deal with him appropriately too, if not at half time, after the game when they have time to review the incident and really have it sink in.

We look more threatening when we play football in the final third.

Watmore looks gassed not recovered from being winded. Definitely there to be won this game

[JMC91 74]

Play long balls for 45 minutes with no success and then we get it in to feet with a few neat passes and we get an attempt on goal in the box. No surprises there.

Was thinking that, looked out on his feet for the last 10mins. 

Think he's still struggling with the fatigue from Covid

Disappointing it’s 0-0. Blackburn are a really bad team but we still resort to too much hoofing. To much like against Birmingham and not enough from the forest game. As soon as we get it o. The floor we look better. 

[TeaCider24 1,702]

Missing Dijksteel.

Wood looks vulnerable but that's no fault of his or ours.

[White Band 373]

HT.  Get them focussed and fired up again, Warnock (but don't let Morsy get too aggressive! )

[AnglianRed 1,529]

Boro finally getting their act together in the last few minutes and putting some pressure on the Blackburn goal.

Just a shame we can't stick the ball in the net.

Yeah it's game plan play a few short then catch them out with a whipped one in they don't expect 😉

[Whoppy 129]

I worry about Wood and Spence on that side of the defence second half especially to counter attacks. I don’t blame the players for looking off colour that half, hopefully Warnock gets them fired up and focussed for the second half.

Yes.  Fry was standing up and got a foot in his face with the studs showing and a lot of force behind it.  Reckless and dangerous play.

Just feen a photo, agree with the comments what was the awful ref thinking of

You can get a Sky Sports pass from Now TV

Cheers but I’m in Belgium. I have a season video pass but as soon as it’s on the red button I’m screwed.

Doesn't see him?  Below is the incident seen again but slowed down a little.  I think he can see him just fine.
