Aye, no doubt on that, but for his time here, he was a miss, and we didn't benefit from him having been here. That's not the fault of Muniz fault, but Wilder was sacked only 6 weeks after we signed him, so the fact that Scott then brought in a manager who had absolutely no interest in using a...

Steve Cooper will be laughing his head off. It's baffling how little time they gave him.

Doesn't seem like that big of an increase to me for what can be a very difficult and very high profile job with long hours. A 3.3% increase. It's apparently below what the expected average salary increase is across the UK this year. Obviously some of them take the ****, but it's not easy work...

Spence, Tavernier and Akpom were all here before Scott, and we didn't need Scott to sell them at a major profit. Though at least with Akpom, you could argue that Scott helped pick a manager and build a team that allowed him to perform. Spence didn't even play a game for Middlesbrough in the time...

He's been excellent since he joined, I'd be happy with him as first choice. I'd be moving Dieng on regardless, rumours of issues behind the scenes or not, he'll be missing a month of next season with AFCON.

Here's my list, because I've got nothing better to do. I'll exclude the 2021 summer window, because it's uncertain whether Scott was influencing or not, and definite academy players, and some of these will be manager signings. Big hit - Archer Latte Lath Rogers (not always on the pitch for...

Yeah, I'm guessing your page hadn't updated with my edit, I realised after I posted that he joined a year earlier, so I'd missed a bunch of signings good and bad. Loans or not, they're all his signings. Especially this season and in 2022/23 where we signed a lot of loans and some of them have...

Archer, Smith, Ramsey, Greenwood, O'Brien, Thomas, Bangura, J. Jones, Gilbert, Iheanacho, Doak, Iling-Junior, Giles (2nd time) and Travers are the ones I've got as missing. I actually thought he joined in 2022, not 2021, so I've missed a full season's worth of hits and misses there. Yeah...

I wouldn't call Burgzorg a hit right now, especially not in relation to some of the players you've got in the undecided. He's one of our main attacking players and he barely ever registers a goal or assist. He just puts in a bit of effort, which fans appreciate. We'd lose money if we tried to...

Scott wasn't out of work when we appointed him. Gibson's taboo doesn't seem to extend beyond not poaching managers/head coaches.

If he goes, we'll always have this disastrous January transfer window to remember him by. Not wanting him to leave, but there have been more misses than hits this season.

The only way I'd see him going to Porto is if no Premier League clubs came in for him. Most players would pick a bottom half established Premier League club over any Portuguese club, the only selling point they've got beyond a better climate is offering Champions League football, but the...

Scarborough it is then.

Cheers, I'll be doing my best to avoid interactions with the people that caused me to log out, at least I chose to take my leave at a time where very little good was happening in the world or for Middlesbrough.

The North Riding of Yorkshire was an administrative county in its own right for 85 years between 1889 and 1974.

Getting so tight at the top now. Hoping Norton & Stockton can put up a better fight against Cheadle on Sunday to let Boro women close the gap further.

If he hadn't been injured for 3/5ths of his time here, and absolute dogshit for another 1/5th, I'd have more sympathy for him. He failed here because he couldn't stay fit and was useless for most of the other time. The one game where he was genuinely very good, against Hull, he injured himself...

I still don't mind him at all. I was raging about the Burnley stuff, but I enjoyed it when he was here and the Riverside atmosphere has never been as good as it was under him with Carrick. I don't think that's particularly down to him or Carrick, it's just the way chants caught on, but it was...
