Denzel Zanzibar 6,931 Posted December 27, 2019 Share Posted December 27, 2019 Hope we attack from the start, get a nice early goal and we may have a chance. I was wrong with my prediction against Huddersfield so I hope to be wrong again here and i'll say 2-0 to WBA! Link to post Share on other sites
AnglianRed 6,229 Posted December 27, 2019 Share Posted December 27, 2019 Bloody hell BU! You just keep getting better with these song parodies. 😂 Sadly I think we'd better make the most of it, as it may be a few games before we hear another one. West Brom are top of the table for a good reason - they've lost only once in 24 games and have a very healthy GD. The one silver lining in this otherwise dark thundercloud is that they have drawn 3 of their last 5 games (guess that counts as a bit of a wobble for them). IF Boro can somehow muster a disciplined performance AND if the Baggies are having an off day, we MIGHT get away with a draw. But thats really clutching at straws. The odds are heavily stacked against us for this one. I just hope we don't fall to pieces like we did against Leeds. Think this one can be best described as a "character building" game. Prediction: WBA 2 - 0 Boro 1 Link to post Share on other sites
Smogzilla 7,385 Posted December 27, 2019 Share Posted December 27, 2019 A free hit for boro, really. If we get anything out of this game at all it will be a huge positive. 2 Link to post Share on other sites
BillinghamBoro 229 Posted December 27, 2019 Share Posted December 27, 2019 Mentioned on the other match day thread, Mr Geoff Eltringham is the ref for this one wholl be better known as the Sunderland supporting ref who controversially didn't give us a pen against Fulham in our 1-0 loss. Never reffed us since so will be interesting to see how it goes. Not expecting anything from this a draw will be absolutely class but you never know, if things go in our favour it could just work out. (he says more out of hope than expectation) 1 Link to post Share on other sites
TeaCider24 12,398 Posted December 27, 2019 Share Posted December 27, 2019 Can't see us getting a win here, we might sneak a flukey draw but I'm seeing this as a free hit. Link to post Share on other sites
BearSmog 1,382 Posted December 27, 2019 Share Posted December 27, 2019 West Brom, in my opinion, are the best team in this league. I'd take a draw in a heartbeat! Link to post Share on other sites
TeaCider24 12,398 Posted December 27, 2019 Share Posted December 27, 2019 I notice a lot of the teams around us have fairly difficult games too, could end up being a fairly good week even if sadly we did lose. 1 Link to post Share on other sites
Downsouth 6,175 Posted December 28, 2019 Share Posted December 28, 2019 Whilst it would be great to finish 2019 with an away win I do not see that happening so at this time would be very content with a draw, the Hawthorns is a stadium we can do well at. As others have said it is a bit of a free hit for us so maybe a shock result could ensue Link to post Share on other sites

sanddancer 1,964 Posted December 28, 2019 Share Posted December 28, 2019 (edited) We are away to a rampant West Brom with a 32 goal deficit between us so my best hope would be a draw. I am happy to say I have been wrong with my past predictions but I can’t see anything but a lose and I just hope we have the bottle to give it a go.

boro-unger 3,811 Posted December 28, 2019 Author Share Posted December 28, 2019 Over the last 5 games we actually have the best form in the league (joint with shef wed and brentford). We just need to break the 'away hoodoo'. It would be very middlesbroughy for us to win tomorrow. 1 Link to post Share on other sites
