Rioch's Braves 711 Posted March 3, 2016 Share Posted March 3, 2016 Horses for courses, Wolves haven't beat us away since 1951, jinx place for them to come, long may it continue. Link to post Share on other sites
Betamaxman 14 Posted March 3, 2016 Share Posted March 3, 2016 It will be great to win tomorrow night, but as 'wilsoncgp' says, even if we don't there will still be LOADS of games to go, with twists and turns. Five years ago (2010/11), Boro were NINE points behind Ipswich with four games to play.... with a goal difference 12 worse than Ipswich. (Boro -9, Ipswich +3)..... (I know this because I had a bet with an Ipswich mate, as to who's team would finish higher. The prize, and Indian meal out). Boro then won the last four games and finished with a GD of '0' on 62 points. Ipswich lost three and won one of their last four, but took a couple of pastings... finishing on 62 points GD '-6'. That was one tasty curry... and my Ipswich mate was smarting at the £50 swing (instead of enjoying his £25 prize he was buying it) - LOL !! So.... #Believe, #MmmmTastyIndianCurries Link to post Share on other sites
Maccarone 265 Posted March 3, 2016 Share Posted March 3, 2016 ......so it's the gazette's fault KM :) My comment about winning 8 more games shouldn't be too wide of the mark. 8 wins and 2 draws would see us finish on 90 points. Spot on Billy, eight wins is what we need, so it's still the same 2 points per game ratio, beat Wolves tomorrow and we are pretty well back on that track, just need to get the level of consistency we have shown all season until the 'blip'. However same applies to Hull, Burnley and Brighton although both Burnely and Brighton have played one more game so their ratio is slightly higher. Still confident, more so if we bag the three points tomorrow night, lets hope the players are busting a gut to redeem themselves from the poor showing on Tuesday. Also hope AK doesn't have a knee jerk reaction and make too many changes, one or two yes but not wholesale. Link to post Share on other sites
Yeovil-Boro 4 Posted March 3, 2016 Share Posted March 3, 2016 Wolves supporting boss reckons they are bringing just 236 fans tomorrow night and he really doesn't expect anything other than defeat. Some sort of protest or something over just about everything within the club. I'll worry about it tomorrow night - time to be a Birmingham supporter tonight. Link to post Share on other sites
dunnerzzz 17 Posted March 3, 2016 Share Posted March 3, 2016 Hoping for a win tomorrow night. A convincing one. But not a Sheff Wed one from years back. Come on Boro. 2-0 Nsue & Ramirez. P.S. Just wanted to say that I played Nsue up front as a last resort the other day on Fifa last 20 minutes and he scored two. Emilio! Link to post Share on other sites
Aaron 4 Posted March 3, 2016 Share Posted March 3, 2016 I'm hoping to see Dimi Nsue Fry Gibson DeLaet Clayton Forshaw Adomah Gaston Downing/De Pena Nugent I think I would give De Pena the nod. Lets get back to normal, clean sheet and a Nugent winner. Link to post Share on other sites

Equatorial Guinea must have been pleased! :D We spent all this money on a big Championship striker and we've got the best of the lot hiding a***st the full-backs. Nsue should be starting and he'd get 30 a season minimum. ;) Link to post Share on other sites
dunnerzzz 17 Posted March 3, 2016 Share Posted March 3, 2016 In all seriousness, I really think Nsue would be great up front and gives us that pace we certainly lack at times. Proof is in the Equatorial Guinea pudding.... and Fifa 2016. :D Link to post Share on other sites
Dan_Boro_Till_I_Die 1,181 Posted March 3, 2016 Share Posted March 3, 2016 With the brum result we need to take full advantage come on boro!!! Link to post Share on other sites
Rioch's Braves 711 Posted March 3, 2016 Share Posted March 3, 2016 At home we will never get a better chance to go top, I fancy Downing to be on the bench after his strop after being subbed, hope we start with Rhodes, I'm backing him 1st goal if we do. Link to post Share on other sites
wilsoncgp 9,280 Posted March 3, 2016 Share Posted March 3, 2016 Pretty sure we'll see Rhodes from the start. Hope he finds the net on this occasion. If Downing is on the bench, it will surely be for De Pena or we'll be going back to Adomah on the left and Stuani right. I don't think he will be though, I reckon it will be a straight swap with Ramirez and Nugent and that's it for the front 4. Link to post Share on other sites

Nsue should be starting and he'd get 30 a season minimum. ;) Mate I know he's scored 2 this season but he's also missed a couple absolute sitters. If we moved him up there full time he'd just full into the Middlesbrough striker curse and he'd never score again, better keep him at RB where a few might still go in ;) Link to post Share on other sites
Aaron 4 Posted March 3, 2016 Share Posted March 3, 2016 Tonight's result emphasises the fact that we are not as bad as we think we are. Burnley, Brighton, Hull and Boro are all going to lose games and drop points in this league. I trust AK to make sure that we lose less games and drop less points than our rivals.
