Don’t see the point keeping our best keeper on the bench just because Glover has done ‘better than expected’.

Better than expected was probably  the wrong wording, I think he's been excellent for us, as I stated, I would be quite happy to see him keep his place, for me, he stopped a 1st half mauling

Exactly, it's not like he's been amazing, he just wasn't as bad as we all feared he would be.

He's made plenty of mistakes, most avoided punishment, but the one against Sunderland cost us 2 points.

Dieng is our number one, and he's better in every department.

I felt he got away with a lot after the Chelsea game. I think he was responsible for a lot of the struggle at the back because he was passing the ball out to defenders for the sake of it. As in he seen a defender in a bit of space so gave him the ball, not taking into account what was gonna happen after they receive the ball. Basically he just passed the ball rather than picking out a good option.

CBA with this one, to be honest. I'm away in Aberdeen this week, so will probably check the result, say "FFS Boro" out loud in a restaurant to general bemusement, and then get on with my evening.

Between the missed opportunity of the transfer window, the Chelsea humiliation, selling Crooks, the ST pricing news and the weak-as-a-used-teabag performances in recent weeks, I'm scunnered with the club right now. Sorry if that makes me sound fickle, but I'm finding it hard to generate any enthusiasm for upcoming games when it seems like the club has already checked out for the season.

Roll on August.

My bad, I put weekend instead of week. The excuse still stands (phew). Will edit the post so I don't look quite as idiotic, though it's damage limitation at this point.
