boro-unger 3,870 Posted April 7, 2016 Share Posted April 7, 2016 Great op BB. Has anyone else ever won your sweets out of interest? :P I'm not a great fan of liquorice, so I'll go for an unlikely 5-0 to boro for this one! Reckon it'll be a trickier game than Tuesday though. They've got a load of clean sheets Preston and it'll be hard for us to break them down. Link to post Share on other sites
Ever_the_optimist 41 Posted April 7, 2016 Share Posted April 7, 2016 Great opener as ever, BB! I'm pretty confident about this, for reasons already mentioned by others. BUT we simply cannot afford to be complacent - I think the lads will have had that drilled out of them now any ways so hopefully no need to worry. Ramirez is simply on fire at the moment so I think he will score but I also reckon Rhodes will score the first - he was so close with some chances so I think one of them will come good this game. So 2-0, Rhodes with the first on 19 mins. Attendance 27,221. Link to post Share on other sites
Aarfy_Aardvark 38 Posted April 7, 2016 Share Posted April 7, 2016 This is gonna be a tough game. 2-1 Preston Jon Macken and an on-loan David Beckham to score. Link to post Share on other sites
trekkers 104 Posted April 7, 2016 Share Posted April 7, 2016 Well i've exiled myself from participating in the last 3 games and we've won them all. Bad news is i've just arrived at the in laws and will be going to this. Unlike Aphex though, i've not seen us lose or draw at home since AK took over (14 wins). So a nervy 1-0 for me Where you sitting on Saturday? The boys have half season cards in GRFZ, so I would think in the north stand, but flexible if you fancy a drink ;) Just booked North Stand Block 24 row 7, 146 for Saturday. Sure can meet for a drink. Let me know. Link to post Share on other sites
Maccarone 265 Posted April 8, 2016 Share Posted April 8, 2016 With Brighton not playing until Monday another chance to heap the pressure on them. Link to post Share on other sites
Onme'eadson 44 Posted April 8, 2016 Share Posted April 8, 2016 Boro will win 3-0, Adomah 1st goal in front of a crowd of 28,200 enthusiastic fans, with only the 200 whinging about Downing. ;) Link to post Share on other sites

Borodane 6,301 Posted April 8, 2016 Share Posted April 8, 2016 If the weather is fine do anyone think we can break the 30k barrier. Very important game at home after three wins on the bounce and you'd expect Boro to deliver a good performance and bag some goals. We had almost 25k for a tuesday game and being in the top-2 could persuade a lot of extra fans to come especially those that have some travel to do. To break that b30k barrier for the remaining home games would no doubt be a massive boost to the players, but it's probably a bit unrealistic. Link to post Share on other sites

Maybe not quite 30k but I would expect not "too" far away. Link to post Share on other sites
Borodane 6,301 Posted April 8, 2016 Share Posted April 8, 2016 Yesterday morning more than 23k tickets had been sold and the number was rising. 28k is probably more realistic though. Still very good for a Championship club. Link to post Share on other sites

wilsoncgp 9,283 Posted April 8, 2016 Share Posted April 8, 2016 Tight game. Defensive record at home speaks for itself. Preston a solid defensive side too. 1-0, Rhodes to get the goal. Link to post Share on other sites
Boro Badger 87 Posted April 8, 2016 Author Share Posted April 8, 2016 Great op BB. Has anyone else ever won your sweets out of interest? :P In all 15 issues so far, I've been beaten for the sweets three times and all three times it's been 'ungry boro-unger! The milk bottles are on their way - and I think from now on you should be jogging to The Riverside to burn off all the excess calories... Link to post Share on other sites

The milk bottles are on their way - and I think from now on you should be jogging to The Riverside to burn off all the excess calories... For some reason I just thought of this... Anyway, back on topic. Score will be 2-1 (to Boro...obviously) - another tight, nail-biting finish like QPR. Attendance, I'll go for 28,082...just because it reads the same backwards as it does forwards. Link to post Share on other sites
Brunners 7,982 Posted April 8, 2016 Share Posted April 8, 2016 This'll be close, I don't see us losing really but I wouldn't be surprised by a tight 0-0 or 1-1. However, I am going to go with my heart instead of my head and go 1-0 Boro, Adomah with the goal. Link to post Share on other sites
