northern boro 449 Posted October 13, 2017 Share Posted October 13, 2017 NO alcohol will be served to Boro fans after kick-off tomorrow soft drinks will be sold at half time Link to post Share on other sites
pokeyjoe 112 Posted October 13, 2017 Share Posted October 13, 2017 Must be a health and safety issue from what i have gathered from comments on Twitter. Is this the case with every team they allocate near 5000 tickets to? Link to post Share on other sites
wilsoncgp 9,283 Posted October 13, 2017 Share Posted October 13, 2017 For me, I've been preaching the back to basics approach for the past 2 weeks and I still stand by that. I don't think Monk will change his system based on that, he spoke so much about the plan and the progression during his interview on BBC Tees (the segment that was about the Boro) that I think he's going to stick with that. If it was me, I would go for a 4-2-3-1 for this game: Randolph Christie Fry Gibson Friend Clayton Howson Traore Bamford Braithwaite Assombalonga I've got a feeling, given the prior connection, that we might see Fletcher make a return to the starting line-up in a similar set-up to the Wolves game. This is what I think Monk will go with, and certainly in terms of formation (if not personnel), closer to what I want to see in the longer-term: Randolph Christie Shotton Gibson Fabio Howson Clayton Baker Fletcher Assombalonga Braithwaite Link to post Share on other sites

thomas 501 Posted October 13, 2017 Share Posted October 13, 2017 Nervous for tomorrow really need a positive result and quick start would be really nice but not holding my breathe. Anyway ill go for 2-1 boro win as my prediction, Barsnley getting a goal within the first 5 mins and Bamford getting a late goal to win it in the last min to cause absolute scenes in the boro end.

sackrobson2 371 Posted October 14, 2017 Share Posted October 14, 2017 At last it's match day. Those international breaks are terrible. Hopefully we start our season properly from today. I feel like we are going to do the business today. Link to post Share on other sites
Jimmy 140 Posted October 14, 2017 Share Posted October 14, 2017 Think it will be a tough game this. Would love to walk away with three points so I'll predict it, 2-1 Boro! Link to post Share on other sites
BillyWoofs_shinpad 1,884 Posted October 14, 2017 Share Posted October 14, 2017 I fear this game will be another non event. Hopefully we can get something out of it. It’s going to be a tough one that’s for sure. A 2-2 draw with Barnsley scoring first. Link to post Share on other sites
HoyteForLeftBack 194 Posted October 14, 2017 Share Posted October 14, 2017 Hopefully we're on it from the first minute and we can storm our way to a 1-1 draw Link to post Share on other sites
pokeyjoe 112 Posted October 14, 2017 Share Posted October 14, 2017 They will set up to frustrate and get the big Boro crowd on the players backs from the off I am expecting the moans and groans from Boro fans to start around the 10th min if we start as we have been. Apparently you can pay on the gate in the home end and rumour has it, another 1000+ are making the journey down. Should be interesting :-) Link to post Share on other sites
Downsouth 6,327 Posted October 14, 2017 Share Posted October 14, 2017 Sorely tempted to make the journey without a ticket but would need two as Dan would want to come along, really thought a few more tickets would have been allocated for this game. Anyway I feel we have to start with real intent and vital we score first and preferably in the first half. Oakwell has been a happy hunting ground on many occasions let's hope today is another one of those trips. Link to post Share on other sites
Duvel 2,446 Posted October 14, 2017 Share Posted October 14, 2017 Obviously a win is the only thing that matters but I want to see us starting to play well for a full game at some point. Hopefully today is the start of things improving. Link to post Share on other sites

Hopefully we'll see it one day. Link to post Share on other sites
