Look at this graphic. The two bullet points at the bottom are bonkers. People were still complaining back then about the style of play and ‘negative’ football as well.

It’s been this way for ever since he’s been at the club. Any team that remotely plays any type of football, and we struggle. It ends up as the following… 1. we can’t control the game. 2. Our defe

Teesside Park is over a mile from Riverside..  you would need Middlehaven (formerly Cargo Fleet)...  Metro just fancy name for local rail services 

Sorry my bad meant Middlehaven, so has the old Cargo Fleet Station opened now?

as far as I know, it is still "under consideration"..  which usually means nobody wants to invest the money required ..  would certainly help even if only open on match days, but I fear it will go the way of the wind turbine and unless people start to kick up a fuss, the Transporter ..

Thanks for this I do have an interest in Railways and I guess I was a bit of an anorak in my youth🤪

Even if Bola and McNair fit tomorrow, I wouldn't change a winning team which has the potential to have some confidence and take the risk of aggravating their injuries further. Start them on the bench and if the game isn't going our way then change it.

Strangely confident going into tomorrow even before the forest result and im going with a 2-0 win . I just think there's so much to lose with a negative result and performance tomorrow.

I'm buzzing for tomorrow's game simply because I want to see Sporar live, he looked a class above vs Forest with his touch and movement haven't seen a striker like that at the Riverside since JFH.

Reckon we could see a few goals I'm going 3-1 Boro, looking forward to seeing Siliki as well he's looked off the pace but I like the way he gets around if he can add some sharpness to his passing he could run games even from picking up second balls from our hoofs I think he could be effective.

Bloody hell, you've changed your tune!  You were on a bit of a downer earlier in the week?

I always thought we were going to get beat by Forest and then win this Saturday.... I'm over the moon to be proved wrong on Tuesday and hopefully we get a result tomorrow.

Excited for this one, feeling strangely positive after just one win.

Hopefully a good crowd, good atmosphere and good performance.

Yes would be good to get The Riverside "rocking" today.

Ruthless and precise please Boro

Without knowing who has eaten what for breakfast, I'm unwilling to make any predictions.  If any of the Boro lads are reading this, make sure you get your snacks in 45 mins time as well 💪

3 Shredded Wheat for everyone!

Or failing that Weetabix will do.
