BoroAbroad 321 Posted November 6, 2021 Share Posted November 6, 2021 Will be delighted if we get anything from this. But really doubt we will. I hate being a pessimist but finding it very difficult to have any positive vibes about this team atm. I do believe we have a fairly good squad and are capable of much more than we are producing. So it bloody annoys me to be feeling so meh. It seems an age since I actually looked forward to games with a sense of excitement. Anyway. Come on Boro. Surprise us please. Lets kick start the season. 2 Link to post Share on other sites

Watch us win 2-0 and drag on the charade for another month! That would about sum up the BORO.. Link to post Share on other sites

sanddancer 1,964 Posted November 6, 2021 Share Posted November 6, 2021 I see NW has rolled out his love affair with SG again so things must be on a knife edge. I get SG called a favour and NW promptly cancelled his retirement and drove up to North saving the club, but come on how often can you throw that back in his face. Not sure SG will be content being told his team is pretty rank but there again NW refers he is aware of it. I just wonder why SG choose to buy a rank set of players. At least we can be assured NW is not going anywhere because he has pledged he is staying for the battle. I didn’t know we were at war or even needed one but there you go, I guess we know we have a brave leader who will to lead the battle with players he doesn’t rate. I think self sacrifice is admirable but over rated and avoidable. Link to post Share on other sites

They beat Bristol City 3-0 but generally they've either won narrowly or not won. In fact, other than a 4-0 away win at Cardiff, they haven't been that impressive since the first couple of weeks of the season. There's obviously some kind of game plan out there to at least slow them down or keep it tight, that's what I'd expect to see us try and do tomorrow. The fact that we tend to be a lot better in the first half maybe helps us in this regard. I wouldn't automatically assume it'll be a nightmare anyway 🤷♂️ Well if things go to form, we'll do okay in the first half and go in at half time 0-0. Then we'll have a collective brain fade second half and West Brom will run out 3-0 winners. Link to post Share on other sites

Dan booked the tickets last week to appease Teddy and my other grandson because of what happened, totally forgetting that Bonfire Night parties had been booked and paid for, MFC were contacted about a cancellation but gave him no reply however they failed to send the tickets out anyway and so they put their hands up admitting an admin error and refunded him cancelling the non existant tickets! But we shall overcome, one day! Also it is a very easy ground to get too and takes 90 mins or so to get there Fair enough. Sounds like it was another nightmare brewing if you had have wanted to go!

I think it's safe to assume we will get battered here if west brom play even reasonably well. I've seen somewhere Hall might be back. I don't rate him that highly but mcnair needs to be taken out of that defence ASAP. Link to post Share on other sites

Denzel Zanzibar 6,931 Posted November 6, 2021 Share Posted November 6, 2021 (edited) Payero back, but dropping Sporar is interesting. And by interesting I mean "we're going to create *** all" Link to post Share on other sites
