Denzel Zanzibar 6,931 Posted August 14, 2018 Share Posted August 14, 2018 If you are in the area, why not go to the match? Prices are reduced and it’s a chance to see some of the young players. I’m worried that services like the red button and matches available via streams, will really begin to affect attendances. Crowds have not been great for our first two home games and the new streaming service has been oversubscribed to the point where it keeps crashing, I think there is a link there. If you live in the North of England and can get to matches, please try to, Riverside Live and ifollow are for those of us living abroad that can’t get to matches, it’s not for locals to watch via VPNs on their sofas instead of turning up at matches. Please try and go along tonight and support the team. UTB That's okay, I usually sit on the toilet and watch it on my phone :) Link to post Share on other sites
SouthernSmoggie 4,223 Posted August 14, 2018 Share Posted August 14, 2018 Surely we rest pretty much the entire starting XI for Bristol. Will be good to give a full game to the likes of Tav, McNair, Fletcher, Wood, and Chapman. Link to post Share on other sites
Cormick 11 Posted August 14, 2018 Share Posted August 14, 2018 Wouldn't be surprised to see Johnathan Woodgate taking charge tonight. if he does do we start believing that Woodgate is being coached on being the next boro manager? Link to post Share on other sites

I don't know any armchair fans who have set up vpn's or even know what one is and to follow that. all the regulars who get the mini bus to the game still turn out weekly at our local to go to the match. The stadium started looking empty long before the streaming service was announced, Ifollow had similar issues last season - I understand your frustration as its the same for my son in Canada - but I don't know a single person who has set up a vpn and subscribed, its either go to match, listen on radio or watch on Sky - yes a few people on here do it but I believe thats because they live in other parts of the country and aren't local. I will be watching it on stream tonight because I have to stay in and milk the cat. Link to post Share on other sites
estonpidge 1,442 Posted August 14, 2018 Share Posted August 14, 2018 Wouldn't be surprised to see Johnathan Woodgate taking charge tonight. if he does do we start believing that Woodgate is being coached on being the next boro manager? Already believe that. Link to post Share on other sites
"KM" 1,656 Posted August 14, 2018 Share Posted August 14, 2018 Wouldn't be surprised to see Johnathan Woodgate taking charge tonight. if he does do we start believing that Woodgate is being coached on being the next boro manager? Don't think he'll be in charge tonight even though he was for some of the pre season games. Tony Pulis is still our manager. Do agree that he's the next in line. Link to post Share on other sites
wilsoncgp 9,230 Posted August 14, 2018 Author Share Posted August 14, 2018 At least he's being coached into it rather than dropped in it like Southgate, mind. Link to post Share on other sites

juninho9 35 Posted August 14, 2018 Share Posted August 14, 2018 What's your expected line-up and who would you pick? Will we finally see Harry Chapman make a first-team debut? Expected: Dimi; Shotton, Flint, Fry, Johnson; Leadbitter, McNair, De Sart; Chapman, Fletcher, Tavenier Who I'd Pick: Dimi; Mahmu, Flint, Fry, Friend; Leadbitter, McNair, Wing; Chapman, The Ass, Tavenier What's the score going to be? 3-0 to the Boro Where were you when Kevin Nolan was collecting his runners up medal in 2004? 15 years old, running round the house ecstatic What Boro goal would you love to be immortalised in Lego stop-motion form? Maccarone versus Steaua Is anybody else hoping we lose this game so I don't have to make another thread? No your threads are awesome Link to post Share on other sites

SmogDane 4,052 Posted August 14, 2018 Share Posted August 14, 2018 Is there any form of live stream or radio? What about someone going to the game, sending live on FB? :D Haven't read the entire threat.. Sorry for asking, if it has been mentioned. Link to post Share on other sites
