* The Original Unofficial "Official" Boro v Burnley Match-Day Thread *

It is what it is. The fact we got close enough to worry Sheffield Utd, from where were when Carrick started, is still remarkable.
We need to clear our heads, win our games and go into the playoffs happy to be in the mix - not cursing our dip in form

Just watched the second goal and Howson just did nothing, we never seem to throw bodies at shots to block them ,teams always seem to have a clear strike at goal against us.

McNair played them onside and then went sleep in the box.
 
3 tough games coming now. Bristol, norwich and luton. Could go either way. We look like we lost a bit of spark and confidence. I'd take 4 points now if offered it now. My logical head thinks we could end up with just 1 or 2 points max. Hope im proved wrong and the players can come out fighting evennharder to get back on track.

It's not negativity. That's a really really poor performance, and all of a sudden things don't look so rosy. Don't confuse negativity and reality.

Your reality you mean, many people, me included, don't agree.

We were beaten by demonstrably the best team in the league that's only been beaten twice all season.

That's what happens when you play good teams, you're suddenly made to look ordinary.

I didn’t think Burnley were all that tbh
We didn’t have the belief that we could beat them

Right it's a game, we lost, we were below our usual standard. Against the best team in the league that's going to get punished and it did.

However; Every side we face from hereon until the end is inferior to us now. And there's no magician in the opposing dugout, we've got both of those out of the way in these last two games.

So DROP McNair, right away, get Fry back in. And let's have 6 wins to take us into the playoffs please.👍

And of course, Huddersfield weren’t the best team in the league last week were they ?
Was that just a blip….
The manager picked the wrong team vs Huddersfield and the wrong team again vs burnley.
There’s a time when the manager has to take the responsibility.
