'Other Boro stuff'

Each to their own, but it's just a game I don't really want or care about. Sunday's game was fun but I'd have preferred it to have gone straight to penalties and had a definite winner. We'll have two days rest ahead of a Friday night game with Fulham that I'm more interested in. 

Cup games just feel like reserve football these days, I find them totally bland unless you get a proper mismatch i.e. non-league vs a PL side. And I agree on the income for smaller clubs point - hence why both teams would need to agree to scrap a replay. 

Doesn't really make sense when both Middlesbrough and Tottenham put out full strength sides.

I agree they should just finish it on the day though, I think the League Cup semi-final should only be one game too.

A great Athletic article on our youth recruitment in London (copied from the other site): Saturday afternoon in the north London postcode of N22: on White Hart Lane a steady stream of fans make t

Superb article from The Athletic published today... Gives you a real sense that something special is being built. We've been crying out for this for so long.   Michael Walker 2h ago  2 

The Times interview today with Chuba. I’ve missed all the pics out as I don’t know how to get the whole article across and it’s behind a firewall, but you get a good feeling of what he thinks.

Woodgate has been nominated for manager of the month:

Outlining the reason for Woodgate's nomination, the citation said: "Patience has been the key on and off the pitch at The Riverside.

"Woodgate has gradually instilled in his young side a steeliness to pick up points in adversity, notably a 2-0 win at West Brom which made it 13 points from six games."

 

Would be nice to see him get it after going through a few tough months.

I hope he gets it. Massive pad on the back and something that he could need to make another leap forward. I don’t believe in those curses anyway. 13 points from 6 games is no mean feat considering we were close to relegation and went to wba and pne and deserved all points.

Really pleased he's been nominated, but don't want him getting manager of the month curse...

Great turnround to win manager of the month though considering that 3-1 Swansea debarkle and I thought also the Leeds hammering but turns out that was November 30th. He did only win 3 out of the 5 games in the month though so is a reflection of how inconsistent the championship is for pretty much every team.
