RiseAgainst 3,792 Posted January 5, 2020 Share Posted January 5, 2020 Brilliant performance, especially from McNair and Howson. Proud to be a Boro fan today. The performance might encourage potential signings to view joining us more favourably. And the revenue from the replay might help our FFP! 2 Link to post Share on other sites
TBWAH 58 Posted January 5, 2020 Share Posted January 5, 2020 Well played fellas. Draw a fair result. No complaints. See you at our place. Any one need any advice give me a shout. 11 1 Link to post Share on other sites
White Band 831 Posted January 5, 2020 Share Posted January 5, 2020 I've just switched to Sky. For some reason they have just shown a picture of us in the kit with the sash band we had in the play off season under Karanka??? Link to post Share on other sites
pikerman 1,121 Posted January 5, 2020 Share Posted January 5, 2020 Well played Boro, outstanding performances from McNair, Fry and Howson, we really are starting to look like a proper team 2 Link to post Share on other sites
Skinemrippers 895 Posted January 5, 2020 Share Posted January 5, 2020 Roberts looks like he’s going to be some player. And Tav gets better and better. I think those two could link up very well 1 Link to post Share on other sites

They've been dangerous, but nowhere close to giving us a thrashing. Plus the best way to defend is to keep the ball away from your penalty area. We have camped too much at times. I stand by everything I said. ok Link to post Share on other sites
Neverbefore 10,937 Posted January 5, 2020 Share Posted January 5, 2020 Woodgate got his tactics absolutely dead on. We were organised, patient, attacked at the right times, defended at the right times. Just about a perfect performance when considering the status of the two teams, just a pity they got their goal. 3 Link to post Share on other sites
AnglianRed 6,320 Posted January 5, 2020 Share Posted January 5, 2020 (edited) Went a lot better than most of us would have hoped or expected. Boro were under the cosh for a lot of the game (no surprise) but defended resolutely most of the time, when needed and managed a few decent attacks of their own. Overall a draw is a fair result I feel. Spurs always looked dangerous when in possession, but seemed to share our lack of quality with the final ball & finishing. The return trip to London will add some much needed funds into the club's coffers, but I fully expect Spurs to end up in the next round. But credit to our lads for putting in a performance that in no way embarrassed them. 3 Link to post Share on other sites
DurhamRed 2,047 Posted January 5, 2020 Share Posted January 5, 2020 Cracking performance the player's are working their socks of and looking forward to hopefully getting tickets for the replay. As wanna see this £1 billion stadium 🤩 2 Link to post Share on other sites
Tuns 233 Posted January 5, 2020 Share Posted January 5, 2020 Well done Boro. Had a good go at it. I think most fans are just happy that we give a good account of ourselfs and played for the shirt. We look a totally different team/club currently, long may it continue. Utb 2 Link to post Share on other sites
Jamie-H 1,322 Posted January 5, 2020 Share Posted January 5, 2020 (edited) Pretty incredible result looking at the teams at kickoff I worried but well proud of that display against one of the stronger XIs you'll find in the Prem. Mejias made a couple of brilliant saves, Mcnair/Fry/Howson were outstanding and Roberts/Nmecha showed glimpses of what they're about it's pretty exciting even if we didn't quite click it consistently on the ball today I thought we held our line well again and on to Derby hopefully we carry the confidence through again and get ourselves 4/5 off the playoffs.

Pork Slops 576 Posted January 5, 2020 Share Posted January 5, 2020 I dont know if anyone else feels like they can shine a light but given the amount of times the attendance has been laughed at in the stadium this season for adding on numbers that seemingly weren't there did anybody else seem like the attendance today was ironically the other way, other than 200 250 in the north east corner and 200 250 in the south west I couldnt see a single spare seat and the attendance was about 26600, making us a 27k stadium...
