Official "Unofficial" Match day Thread. Boro v Millwall.

[Smoginexile]

Disappointed but not surprised.
The table tells no lies.
Nowhere near good enough to do it every game and push for promotion.
I still think Neil Warnock has done fantastic to keep away from relegation.
And always proud to be from the Boro.

Why was Warnock ranting at the ref at the end? Never learns

He blew the whistle to start the game.

Cardiff play Swansea, they'll probably lose.

Bournemouth lose to us and they're a maximum of 3 points ahead of us after their game in hand.

Yes, sorry. I'm not sure why, but I thought when I looked earlier Reading and Barnsley had a game in hand, but they don't.

So you're right. We're still in it.

(My prediction is that Boro will do enough to keep us close, and torture us, without actually delivering the goods)!

 

[Cuthbert]

Rubbish ho hum. beer

Beer never let's you down.... unlike Boro.

 

[Blf]

Big mistake by Warnock for me. Kebano Fisher and Morsy have been 3 of our better players. No need to rest players when theres so few games left and we are desperate for points.

 

[Cuthbert]

Shambles results went our way. Its bloody hurts.

Jordan Rhodes scored two today. He could do a job for us.

 

[Jedi boro]

Kebano is on loan so why rest him esp in an international break. We are paying him so use him.

 

[Laughing]

I can't see it ever working with Warnock, good at PR but results and performances not good enough

You do talk some nonsense Kuepper

I don't think we will get there, and I'm far from confident that we'll beat Bournemouth, but if we did then it's still all to play for.

 

[Erimus74]

Gutted mind

That's why I love Friday nights, watching the tele, a few drinks & the Boro to play the next day

 

[Erimus74]

Best manager in the league for me, he's the sole reason I won't give up on the playoffs

 

[indeedido]

Warnock should look at himself and his players, not the officials.

Only Bettinelli can hold his head up after that.

Johnson was poor and Spence was absolutely grim in the wrong system.

The team had an awful shape, an awful initial selection and it looked like an awful attitude today

 

[Soutra]

Win against Bournemouth and we are guaranteed to be a maximum of 5 points off the play-offs, could easily be 3.

Obviously if we lose that then it's over.

So any last hope depends on winning at Bournemouth. Boro usually get pumped there.

Lose and it'll be a 6 point gap to a team in 6th place with a massively better goal difference. Cardiff could overtake Boro with a draw or better at Swansea this evening.

The problem is still the same. Failing to score in 40% of your games is a millstone.

And not just today, Since January at least,

 

[Borobuddah]

Watch Cardiff win tonight

 

[TeaCider]

Watch Cardiff win tonight

Sooner Cardiff than Bournemouth.

 

[Boro_Legend]

However the next three games will finish our season off. Or have us saying we are right in this. Chance blown today but still in the mix thanks to those around us. Had Reading and, Barnsley won today it would be game over for us this season imo. Those 2 results today keep our slim hopes alive.

 

[Laughing]

We will be in the playoffs.

When did spence or akpom have a good game last, coulson got binned off quick enough, these two are worse!
