    Magazines You Miss

    I must admit I'd forgotten all about that little AP/Team17 spat. I didn't remember them being overly harsh on Team 17 games and a quick Google brought up the following 'evidence' (see link below). https://theweekly.co.uk/ap2/dissent/vendetta.html As an aside, I must be one of the few people...

    Championship team of the season

    Has Hermansen seriously had enough to do to justify being best keeper this year? Is this voted for by fellow professionals in the division or is it managers, or some other arbitrary review? Considering Leeds have three players in it you'd have thought they had absolutely pulverised the rest...

    Magazines You Miss

    Would agree with you about Q and The Word which were both excellent. A very specific genre, but I loved Amiga Power back in the day, a very funny and entertaining read not to mention generally honest reviews.

    Brighton

    It does help when you have Chelsea with their billions tripping over themselves to stuff cash into your bank account (but you have to recruit the players that they want first, so fair play to their recruitment model).

    Tonight’s man of the match

    Barlaser is great when teams sit off him and give him time and space. It's a pity there's only the bottom 5 or 6 teams in the championship that'll do that.

    * The Unofficial "Official" Boro v Southampton [03/24] Match-Day Thread *

    Will definitely help make a case to any players we are interested in signing in the summer if we finish strongly and keep the run going. If we're around the playoffs we can point to what might have been but for injuries etc.

    New club crest coming!

    Sorry, but I beg to differ, the current badge is completely awful, it's like some medieval coat of arm from King Arthur's court, dreadful. I've hated it since it came in and have never bought any club merch with it on for that reason. (NB: I have had a shirt bought for me with the current badge...

    Interview with Finn Azaz in the Athletic

    Shows that many of the top clubs are signing or retaining players purely to generate income and not just to find for the first team. Seems quite cynical, but I suppose it makes good business sense. Chelsea were doing it for years with their mass of players out on loan who were sold on without...

    Anyone read Craig Johns article on greenwood this morning?

    He's been a typical young player for me, inconsistent. Has shown some really good qualities and had some good games, but he's also been poor in games too and at the moment has rightly found himself out of the team. At his age and with the potential to improve I wouldn't be against signing him...

    Muniz

    I thought he started well and looked good. Then the manager changed and he didn't really get a look in after that, so in reality we saw very little of him on the field. He was professional though despite not getting a look in and always seemed to be supporting others in the team. He's still...

    Engel

    Decision making is a huge attribute that often separates the best players from the average/inconsistent. Engel did make some poor decisions yesterday but he wasn't the only one, Ayling on the other side was also very loose with his passing. Engel seems to be either brilliant or awful with...

    Fantasy 6 Nations - Guinness Competition.

    Yes, thanks for organising @Abel Tasman. Another fun competition that adds a bit of extra interest and has you cheering on random Italians you hadn't heard of a few weeks ago 🤣 A sneaky come from behind smash and grab victory for Lippy (congrats!) and don't forget a wooden spoon for ComeOnBoro.

    If Chris Wilder was still at Boro……..

    It's not a case of wholesale change really, just slight tweaks, vary your approach and sometimes go for the quick long throw or kick from the keeper as well as the playing out from the back. I thought in the first leg against Chelsea we mixed it up a bit, playing out from the back and also...

    It was very good but he is still so smarmy and unlikable isn't he?

    Carling Cup Celebration 29th Feb at Boro Town Hall

    Personally I feel there's a lot of overreaction on this thread. Yes, it's not ideal that everyone will be there, but there's only really Juninho from the initial publicised list of who was attending when it was announced that now won't be there in person. He will at least be there virtually. I...

    A plea to all football fans..

    It's cringe, but no where near as bad as "you're not singing anymore". If I had my way I'd make it law that anyone caught singing this in public should be shot on the left bum cheek with a potato gun.
