Very sad news. I remember the chant “He’s here, he’s there, he’s every f’ing where - Dickie Rooks, Dickie Rooks! “ from the Holgate end. He really put everything into playing for the Boro. RIP big man.

Happy with that team. Should be stronger than last Saturday’s. UTB 2-1 win for me.

When I worked in Leeds they often told me that there are two ways of doing things - the right way or the Hull way. They weren’t wrong!

If VDB and Hackney are fit, they have got to play. So should Engel. We have to win tonight, so need to put our best team out.

Hackney, VDB and Engel should come in to replace Barlaser, Greenwood and Thomas.

For consistency, the last option should be “9 or more”😂

Thomas was very poor yesterday. Almost every time he got the ball, he passed it back. We need wing backs to be looking forward, not backwards. And he looked very unfit in the second half. I hope that he doesn’t start on Saturday.

He didn’t hit the post. It was well wide.

That is funny! 😂

Spot on!

I was right behind the goal in the North stand. Magical moment!

Brian Clough. I would have loved to have seen him play in a Boro shirt, but he left before my first game in 1961.

I have not said that I need to know. If he doesn’t want to play for England it doesn’t bother me at all. He’s not Harry Kane after all!

I wouldn’t be in favour of offering Ayling a contract. He has been poor in most of the games that he has played. Dijksteel plays well with Jones, who needs to be back in the team.

If Southgate is asked why he didn’t select an inform White, why should he lie to protect the player’s privacy?
