I cant remember the last time we announced a signing when we were still waiting for clearance? Probably why our announcements take a week to come out Both signings literally say "subject to international clearance and receipt of visa." in their first paragraphs on the site.

SouthernSmoggie 5,244 6.9k Posted August 16, 2023 Share Posted August 16, 2023 Bit of pressure on Carrick for this one I reckon. The fans turned up in a big way for the final game of last season and opening day of this one - only to be pretty disappointed both times. We might see a bit of grumbling if Huddersfield take the lead. Backing us to dig out a 2-1 win and kick start the season. Onwards and upwards from here. I think Engel will start but Lath will come off the bench. Will Warnock give us a wave? Of course he will! 3 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Jimmy 140 4k Posted August 16, 2023 Share Posted August 16, 2023 Does anyone know what the craic is with the digital season ticket? I assumed it would just update it in your wallet, but mine still says Millwall on it. Have we got to download it from the MFC website every week?

AnglianRed 7,876 18.1k Posted August 17, 2023 Share Posted August 17, 2023 (edited) Some questions pre match What's your line-up for this one? Are the new signings in from the off? I wouldn't normally advocate throwing new signings in straight away, but given how poor we've looked in our first two games, I don't think we could do any worse. Anyway, feel free to make fun of my selection... What other transfer business do Boro need to complete before the window shuts? Honestly don't know. On paper we seem to have a decent squad with cover for most positions, but everything depends on how well the new signings work out. Hope we're not having to make many "emergency" signings in January, whether we can afford it or not. What's your honest assessment of Warnock's tenure here? Well he fulfilled his initial brief - and for that I'm grateful. But he was never going to be a long-term manager for us...both due to his age and his philosophy of assembling expensive, experienced squads. Although at his time of life I guess he didn't want to be developing players for years before being able to launch a serious promotion push. This was always going to put him at loggerheads with Scott and was counter to what Boro are trying to do now - namely developing younger players and growing sustainable over a few seasons, rather than blowing big wads of cash for an immediate promotion bid. His tactics were one-dimensional and easily countered with the players we had to implement them. After the initial "new manager" boost we quickly became pretty mediocre. Unexciting to watch and not that difficult to beat. While I don't bear him any ill will, I think it would be in football's best interests if he retired sooner rather than later. Bonus: CHANT CHALLENGE! Oooo-ooooh-oooooh-ooooh-ooooh...can you feel the Forss? Or if that doesn't tickle your fancy, how about... Carrick on my wayward son, We'll win cups before you're done, With you we can be the best, And we won't cry no more... 1 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
