It’s a matter for debate, but ultimately we only got £3-5m because he isn’t completely proven. That doesn’t mean we shouldn’t have kept him. He has shown a lot of promise to date and there is a large contingent of fans who aren’t happy as they think he may well go on and prove himself, if...

Carrick literally played Dael Fry up front multiple times in matches where we were desperate for a result. You can't seriously think having Coburn available wouldn't have improved us? Your comments aren't mutually exclusive. There also seems to be a significant number of fans who have expressed...

I have to say I am much much more positive. I had a strong dreading feeling that we were in for just more of the same based on what we saw last season, which would inevitably lead to yet more seasons stuck in the middle of the Championship (at best). Apathy had really set in for me. It is...

You have to be a Mackem. Don't you have an important game to watch?

It's not ancient, but let's just agree to disagree on this as we're not getting anywhere. The second half of this sentence is absolutely correct, and I've put forward a number of reasons why there would be plenty of positives for future potential earlier in this thread. Either way, a solid top...

Come on, the part I addressed throughout the post and that I concluded on specifically at end. For the avoidance of doubt: I'll say it again, this is absolute nonsense. Also, for the record, I hadn't said I expect someone to buy the club because of its top flight pedigree, I said it was a...

I'm sorry but that's just absolute nonsense McMordie. I've used that database I provided a link to earlier and got my abacus out. Firstly I've filtered out a number of unquestionably big clubs who've been very regular in the top flight. The list below shows the number of seasons spent in the...

Separately regarding the other points made that: “During the 70 years since we were relegated in 1954 we've had two spells in the top flight that lasted a few years (the years after Big Jack took us up and the years when we threw a lot of money at it under McClaren) but for the vast...

A number of subsequent posts just entrench my frustration at some of the small time mentality demonstrated by some Middlesbrough fans. There are some good counter points, which would definitely come up on the ‘negatives’ for a potential investor, but do I think they are being over egged. There...

This is such a small time mentality I see a lot on here and I really really don't understand it. Middlesbrough Football Club would be an extremely attractive proposition for an outside investor for a number of reasons: Catchment area - Teesside and the wider Tees Valley is a significant UK...

Giving this a bump in case anyone is interested.

I have a spare in the West Upper I'm looking to shift if anyone's interested. Bought it before I realised someone had already gotten me one. The email confirmation I received states the following: A ticket can only be downloaded to one device, but you can have multiple tickets on one device...

I don't normally post, but feel the urge to share my frustrations on this one as I feel the pricing is incredibly restricting for so many reasons, and actually comes across as sheer arrogance. It is arrogant in that it discards so many fans. Fans are treated with complete contempt. Gibson is...

If the attendance is anything above 25,000 (pretty much on the dot) we're guaranteed to finish with a higher average attendance than Wednesday who are away today. Sounds like we've already sold that so we'll finish top 6. Not bad for a season where I don't believe we've ever actually been in...

I like Marvanelli's, but there's too much black and blue for my liking. I've given it a bit of a tweak (apologies its a bit rough around the edges!) Closer to the 86 badge that a lot of us like, but with the correct date and the bridge included.
