    Van Den Berg's Bandage

    I saw some training ground footage recently of Rav without his bandage on his wrist. I dont recall him suffering any specific injury and I also dont remember him ever not wearing it. Footballers being the superstitious bunch that they are, my brother and I were wandering if it is now a latent...

    Advice on season cards please...

    My son and myself have season tickets along with my two brothers. One of my brothers can't make the game on Wednesday evening so one of my other boys would like to come to the game. Unfortunately the brother who can't make it lives in Leeds so I can't physically get hold of his season card for...

    Leeds Delusion.....here we go

    To start this thread...... I bought a brand new 72" ULED TV screen to watch the premiership next season. But when I opened the box there were no Leeds. Leeds fans calling in to Talk Sport at the weekend. Talking about the way forward for them. "I think we re-build and go straight back up. All...

    So, I was chatting with Sir Alex this week.....

    Met him at the Tebay services on the M6 on our way back from the lakes. We were stood together queuing for coffees. Told him I was a Middlesbrough fan and he was happy talking football with me for 2-3 minutes. He said we are playing some fantastic football under Carrick, and is clearly showing...

    Carrick Annoyed......

    .... with a few of our fans tonight. And I share his frustrations. We have a defined way to play the game. Build from the back, draw players on, make the space in midfield to beat the press. And it's been working effectively since October. So when our fans are shouting for Staffan to...

    Player arrival at the ground

    Firstly, apologies - I know this has been posted / asked (and answered) previously, but I'm taking Little Legs down to see the players arrive at the ground before the game today. I'm thinking.... 1pm? Anyone confirm what time the players normally arrive please?

    Elderly lady after the match

    Very concerning sight after the game just near to the bridge in the south west corner outside the ground. I walked past an elderly couple. The lady was looking very unsteady. I stopped, was going to go back to ask if everything was OK - by which time a few other fans had also noticed and they...

    Most famous person you've met....

    So, here's a statement I never thought I'd type. I met Chris Eubank at portrack interchange today. OK, full disclosure - he was in his car and I in mine but I did give him the thumbs up and he waved back at me. Recognised his number plate because I'd seen Eubank jnr when working in London in a...

    Biggest difference last night was obvious to me

    McGree had his socks pulled all the way up. It's all about standards, and Carrick sets high ones - like McGree's socks. Intriguing to see if there is a direct correlation on Saturday at Norwich with the height of his socks and quality of performance.

    Adam Sandler

    Other than 'Uncut Gems', I just cant get away with him. Find him irritating.

    Newcastle success good for Boro?

    Do you think a massively successfull Newcastle team could benefit us in our ability to sign more top players? I know we've struggled in previous years (albeit in the prem) to get top players to come to Middlesbrough rather than going to London or the North West - but if it the geordies are...
