    Beck-Ray Enoru

    Not a great commendation on this pitch! 😉

    Do we play McCabe ahead of Barlaser?

    What we need in midfield is players who are technically good, fast and strong on the ball. We have players with one or two of those attributes; but too few with all three. When we get them, we will go up. But not before.

    Another season with only 2 cup games

    We’ve had worse. The win against Leeds was one of our best performances in donkeys. I just wish we would buck the trend and give everything in the FA Cup. Half-committed approaches with pre-season starting line-ups and inevitable results mean that fans won’t be bothered to turn up even if...

    Favourite Jones moment?

    A strange one for me, it was after the 3-1 defeat at Luton Town, the end of the Warnock era. The highlight, aside from taking an early lead through Coburn, was the chanting of Isaiah Jones’ name at the end of the match. Hope in adversity, sort of thing. A very Boro trait!

    I saw the play when it was on tour last year. Brilliant!

    The Curious Case of Matthew Hoppe

    ….. and yet, I’d still say he was a better signing than Gestede!

    Bids accepted for Jones by WBA and Luton

    I have a tremendous amount of affection for Isaiah Jones, and I really hope that he finds happiness in his next move - and has success in his career. There are other players that have been here for longer and achieved more, with whom I have felt less affinity. He felt like one of our own, to me...

    Kelly’s Heroes is now followed by…

    You seem a little distracted….. The other side of the square….. And…. what a disguise! Tell him he’s a traitor! Tell him he’s a renegade! I seem to have no cards left to play….. What was her name? Fred! And in response to what kept you / you’re late / where were you….. Well, I was very...

    Our family would hardly be able to communicate but for all of the quotes we recite from Where Eagles Dare, on a daily basis!

    Neil Young pulls out of Glastonbury

    His cover of Love Will Tear Us Apart was abysmal!

    Best Opening Line to a Song?

    BBC Sports Personality of the year

    Hee hee! Come on son!! :) I am the one who should apologise, though, SmallTown. I’ve not been clear enough. I belittled the F1 drivers who won SPOTY despite not winning the drivers championship, not because of their sport. There were more worthy winners on those years. Actual world...

    BBC Sports Personality of the year

    But “at the end of the day”, as I said, it’s just a bit of televisual nonsense and I enjoy it as such.

    BBC Sports Personality of the year

    No I didn’t. I belittled the achievement of two Princesses in winning SPOTY against all of the other gold medalists we’ve had who sat on a horse in that deadliest of Olympic sports; and people who won SPOTY when they finished second in a sport we dominate that involved them competing in a...

    BBC Sports Personality of the year

    Roger Bannister wasn’t nominated in the year that he broke the 4 minute mile. However, two members of the Royal Family have won it for sitting on a horse; and several British F1 drivers for finishing 2nd! It has always been a subjective bit of telly nonsense. Just like “Celebrity Boy Band...

    Wolves sack Gary O’Neil

    I’d heard that he was being lined up for Millwall; in anticipation of his sacking from Wolves.

    Rav Van Den Berg

    He was brilliant today. Strong, assured, classy.

    Lewis Wing

    I saw him play for Reading in the corresponding fixture vs Cambridge United. He was head and shoulders above the rest, and clearly loved by the Reading crowd.
