I expected fully we would get our ar5ses tanned tonight, being four nil down at halftime did not even seem worse than I expected ... and eventually, 6-1 .. well .. the distance in quality both on the pitch and what they have on the bench vs us, what else was going to happen given our injuries and missing players??
Would have loved to have seen what kind of a go we would have made of it with the likes of McGree, Dieng and of course Jones, etc .. but even then it'd have been an ask
Did not expect though to feel as gutted as I currently do. All day on the radio the amount of mockery made of us any time the game discussion came up .. there was never a mention barely of what a threadbare side we'd be putting out to start with. No mention of the great work Carrick has achieved, largely over his time here .. it was just 'yeah no disprespect but it is Boro ... and they're mid-table in the Championship, snort ..' ... then it would just be the noise around Rodgers if anything else
We got absolutely tanked tonight and with Rodgers going too, I damn well hope we get the right replacements in. I Know it is great for the clubs coffers and shows our model is flowing well, but for some reason I just feel tonight is unfortunately timed given how long we're waiting until our next game. So getting a rimming like that was not ideal timing for the players confidence.
Sick of the amount of times I hear Boro being discussed and there's barely ever a mention of how we're doing well, still, in the league really considering our injury situation, as well as players away on duty
I hope this isn't the start of a perod of doom and gloom, we don't get the right players in or struggle to get the main names we want (which is usually the case) after Rodgers inevitable departure. Such a shame to lose him so quickly as he is starting to look so good
Let's hope this is where Carrick's man-management skills work well on the players hopefully, after tonight. There is rarely anything you can do when up against that kind of distance in quality, a squad of that size vs our injury-ravaged threadbare side.
Sorry ... don't know why it has bothered me so much seeing us torn apart like that. I wasn't expecting Wembley or anything, but maybe just a little more effort and a lower scoreline. I did have Rodgers to score and Crooksy to pick up a yellow on my bet builder, like! ha ha just about missed out though otherwise would've cashed in nicely, that would have softened the blow
(I have just lost a friend unexpectedly out the blue, to suicide so I dunno, maybe that and the miserable weather is getting to me and i am over reacting. Oh well.)
I just think it is shocking sometimes the amount of times we don't get the credit we deserve. You'd have thought were playing a full strength side tonight of journey man plodders with Mick McCarthy in charge the way the usuals moaned and groaned about us whenever we come up before this game in a feature.
Or so when I heard anyway. Carrick has done so much more than people realise, it's a shame tonight was not in any way really us, it was a one-off .. glad its over
Here's to hoping we get what we want in through the doors before the window shuts, we climb the league table and I hope each and every one of those players has forgotten about tonight already.
