TeaCider24 12,398 Posted December 14, 2019 Share Posted December 14, 2019 Apparently Rhodes' third was a stunning overhead volley 😂 He couldn't kick a ball properly when he was here. Glad he's got a bit of confidence. Link to post Share on other sites

Been that way for years. We never seem to improve players...quite often the opposite. Always seem to slow the game down and go into damage limitation mode after we concede, instead of pushing for an equaliser. Link to post Share on other sites
Downsouth 6,175 Posted December 14, 2019 Share Posted December 14, 2019 As games are going so far we are being dragged back into the "danger Will Robinson" area. Luton having just equalised Link to post Share on other sites

It’s amazing that this is one of the highest paid teams in the league. We have a squad with no technical ability and a manager with zero ambition. 2 Link to post Share on other sites
Borodane 6,246 Posted December 14, 2019 Share Posted December 14, 2019 Just put Gestede on and go long. That’s the limit of our ability. Link to post Share on other sites

Changing Times 12,211 Posted December 14, 2019 Share Posted December 14, 2019 I think that great point at Forest is being put into some context right now 😮 Link to post Share on other sites
Brunners 7,952 Posted December 14, 2019 Share Posted December 14, 2019 After the first 15-20 minutes I would have said we were comfortably the better team. Hadn't really created anything but Swansea were awful. The penalty decision was soft as all hell and after that we just seemed to fall flat on our faces. As soon as we get anywhere near the final third we poo ourselves and fall over. fingers crossed we come out with some spark second half and can get the goal back, because Swansea in no way deserve to be leading this.

AnglianRed 6,229 Posted December 14, 2019 Share Posted December 14, 2019 Half time stats make pretty grim reading. Swansea have had more possession (no surprise there) but its not been totally one-sided at 56% - 44%. However the hosts have had 4 shots on target, whereas Boro haven't mustered a single one. We've edged the corner count, but obviously haven't capitalised on them. Link to post Share on other sites
Dan1234 1,048 Posted December 14, 2019 Share Posted December 14, 2019 Not sure who's on the bench but can we remove Clayton or Saville, drop Tav into the middle and get some more attacking player on. I'd even have Gestede on at this point. Link to post Share on other sites
Downsouth 6,175 Posted December 14, 2019 Share Posted December 14, 2019 The little bit of goodwill that was returning so quickly goes away with performances like this especially as it seems we are playing just to lose by only 1 goal! Link to post Share on other sites
Erimus74 2,977 Posted December 14, 2019 Author Share Posted December 14, 2019 A non event 1st half for the Borough, Luton drawing, Stoke drawing, Wigan winning, Barnsley winning At half time we sit one point above the relegation zone, go down figting , show some passion & fight, let's not settle for a 1-0 defeat C'mon Boro! 1 Link to post Share on other sites
