We were absolutely in cruise control for 80 minutes today and didn't really look like conceding in that final 10 either. I can't be happy, i'm a Boro fan in 2019. 1 Link to post Share on other sites
boro-unger 3,817 Posted December 7, 2019 Share Posted December 7, 2019 Great result. Hanging on a bit towards the end and we should have been at least 3 up, but who cares! Up the Boro 3 Link to post Share on other sites

No it’s hard too be too happy at the moment, but at least you can watch the highlights, that’s something I’ve avoided since the final whistles formost of this season.

Johnmfc81 902 Posted December 7, 2019 Share Posted December 7, 2019 The two fullbacks ran themselves ragged today, put in very good performances too. We did look very nervy in the last 10 mins, but that could of been down to the tired legs. That defence actually looked decent and a few clean sheets will give them great confidence. 1 Link to post Share on other sites

DurhamRed 2,043 Posted December 7, 2019 Share Posted December 7, 2019 I thought Spence played tremendous and gave us that bit of pace we've been lacking. Atleast for Forrest Johnson be back aswell so onwards and upwards Link to post Share on other sites
sanddancer 1,964 Posted December 7, 2019 Share Posted December 7, 2019 A win is win. I was at a Xmas lunch and when I read the score and possession it was uplifting thinking we will surly have another or two goals. With 10 mins to go I was told to put my phone away because I was nervous reading the commentary trying to judge if we had enough to get over the line. I’m with the not enough camp to make a difference against inform teams and Xmas schedule will cripple us. A win is a win and it’s 3 points. Link to post Share on other sites

We've been told we've turned a corner every few weeks whether a draw at Ashton Gate or a draw at Loftus Road I think we're closer to the corner than we were in early November whether young players like Spence/Tav/Coulson can show consistency to propel us through the next 3 tough games I really don't know. If Britt's missing for the next week does Woodgate throw Walker in to pair with Fletcher or push Coulson/Johnson to the left wing Fletcher down the middle and Tav wide right? It's a tough spot but I still think he needs to find 1 win out of Forest Stoke and Swansea we need to get to 23GP 5W just to give us a real cushion from relegation. Link to post Share on other sites
