ham_chop 36 Posted February 20, 2015 Share Posted February 20, 2015 Yes it certainly is another of those voodoo hoodoo's we have to bury in a professional way however it will be a hard fought game and certainly yellow and possibly red cards could feature. Understand that Leeds are bringing over 3 k with them so attendance at this time likely be towards the 25k mark They've not sold out though, for a team that prides itself on having "the best away following in England". I s88t you not, they honestly give themselves that accolade! Link to post Share on other sites
Boro_Phil 4 Posted February 20, 2015 Share Posted February 20, 2015 Do we have a decent ref for this one? Preferably one thats overlooked the norwich/millwall/brentford games earlier in the season? Link to post Share on other sites
Barticus 29 Posted February 20, 2015 Share Posted February 20, 2015 Andre Maririner apparently, we'll need a strong ref for this one, that's for sure Link to post Share on other sites

Maccarone 265 Posted February 20, 2015 Share Posted February 20, 2015 Good vibes about the game, sooner or later we will really play well and turn a team over big time, could be tomorrow. Cmon Boro. Link to post Share on other sites
Oslo_Syd 320 Posted February 20, 2015 Share Posted February 20, 2015 I think we have to face up to the fact that every match from now until we clinch the championship (he said hopefully) is going to be gritty and not always attractive to watch. It's fine to play pretty football when you have no hope of promotion and no fear of relegation but we cannot afford to drop points - any points! It's all well and good to admire the team's heroics in getting a draw against Brum with 10 men and 12 on their side, but we should have won that match. There can be no excuses. The Leeds match will be hard - isn't it always? - but we have to win. Link to post Share on other sites
Aphex_Boro 1,444 Posted February 20, 2015 Share Posted February 20, 2015 All of Bamford's league goals this season. Some excellent goals in there, the guy is a natural finisher. Makes you wonder how many he would have had this season if he wasn't stuck out wide to accommodate Kike for most of it http://www1.skysports.com/watch/video/sports/football/teams/chelsea/9721737/bamfords-boro-goals-201415 Link to post Share on other sites

I don't think AK has started another game with those attacking players set up like that.... I would like AK to start more games like that, Not all of them of-course but at least a few.

The boy has a very big future in the game Link to post Share on other sites

Completely agree with you NB mate, this game is the perfect opportunity to play our natural wide men in their preferred positions, give Tomlin a rest and put the just as solid and effective player in Vossen in that hole behind bamford who really is an out and out number 9. The great thing about bamford is that he is versatile and when required has played put wide, look at his goal against Birmingham that alone showed his qualities as an out and out striker. Agree like you say he doesn't need to set up line that every game but at home against Leeds I certainly would :) Link to post Share on other sites
London_born_Boro_bred 29 Posted February 20, 2015 Share Posted February 20, 2015 Though i agree, Bamford played 50 mins on Sunday the whole match Wed so I cant see him starting. Link to post Share on other sites
"KM" 1,656 Posted February 20, 2015 Share Posted February 20, 2015 Wonder if Carayol might be a surprise inclusion for this, he's been in full training mode for a few weeks now Link to post Share on other sites
London_born_Boro_bred 29 Posted February 20, 2015 Share Posted February 20, 2015 Reckon he might be. Well, I hope so anyway. Link to post Share on other sites
Tom 2,492 Posted February 20, 2015 Share Posted February 20, 2015 I think if Carayol does appear it would be on the bench for Bolton rather than this one. Stranger things have happened though. Anyone have any idea what's going on with Kalas? Assumed he might start this game, but with him not even on the bench on Wednesday, I'm not sure. I don't think he's injured is he? I'm going to stab at: ----------------Mejias------------ Fredericks--Kalas--Gibson--Friend ------Clayton-----Leadbitter----- Adomah----------Vossen------Reach -----------------Kike------------ Link to post Share on other sites
