Neverbefore 10,941 Posted August 14, 2021 Share Posted August 14, 2021 Are we any closer to finding out what we were going to find out today? Link to post Share on other sites
Woof Woof 84 Posted August 14, 2021 Share Posted August 14, 2021 I'll be happy if Boro can stop needlessly "pushing" opposition players over and giving away free kicks and happier still if Boro can retain possession from a throw in at least once during the match. I'm going for a nervy 1-0 to Boro, a cock up at the back leading to a Bristol own goal, naturally. 1 Link to post Share on other sites

Changing Times 12,347 Posted August 14, 2021 Share Posted August 14, 2021 Not a prediction but I hope big Uche gets off the mark today. Be good for him to get a goal especially in front of a big home crowd. 3 Link to post Share on other sites
Rioch's Braves 711 Posted August 14, 2021 Share Posted August 14, 2021 1st home game bit nervy for the players I'll go 1-1. Link to post Share on other sites

I put little posts like this up quite a lot. Mind, ive just read the gazette article linked on the transfer thread so it probably looks like it’s related to that but I’d already posted this before I read it. He’s a new striker, one I don’t particularly rate, but he’s here now and the best thing for us is for him to get off the mark early in his career I reckon? Link to post Share on other sites
Robin Johnson 616 Posted August 14, 2021 Share Posted August 14, 2021 Big Uche doesn’t do it for me. Yes, he is big, puts himself both admirable assets. Won us 2 free kicks last week but very rarely threatened in the box. Remain to be convinced. We looked more dangerous after he was subbed at Fulham 1 Link to post Share on other sites
Whoppy 593 Posted August 14, 2021 Share Posted August 14, 2021 Hi all, I haven’t been active on the forums so much lately! Quick couple of questions... 1) Is it still possible to watch the games as pre covid on the website (using a VPN)? 2) does anyone have any idea what capacity we will be at for our first game back? thank you!

I just found out when checking the tickets that there's only one seat around the 9 around me that hasn't been sold yet and it made me a little more worried about it as well. Like you say, we've spent 18 months in this completely new way of life, it's gonna take some getting used to again. I only kind of remember the odd feeling that we even went to the games whilst COVID started becoming a thing, now it's odd to even be in close proximity to a stranger, I still hate it when somebody stands right next to me when I go shopping, masks on or off! Don't think you are the only one mate. I have held off until this morning to book a ticket, perfectly natural to be anxious after the last 18 months. I'm cacking it tbh, but excited in equal measure.

More so that Tav and Jones came on and actually gave us some energy. Uche offers a presence upfront but he’s probably not going to score 15 goals. Think maybe 10 goals would be what I’m hoping from him. Link to post Share on other sites
BoroYorkie 94 Posted August 14, 2021 Share Posted August 14, 2021 I honestly think Uche could turn out to be a really good signing as long as we get players up the pitch with him. No point him bringing the ball down and holding off players if he has to play it back each time. Link to post Share on other sites
