Some right sour pusses on here

We won 3-1 ya know

 

[Four-All]

This is incredible.

36 points from the last 42 available - absolutely staggering form

Steffan's very important for our style. We want to play out from the back and that means passing it about back there. We need a keeper comfortable on the ball to give us the numbers to do that. If you think we come close to giving the ball away now, imagine us playing the same way at the back but not including the keeper and therefore being a man down.

Having said all that, I'm not gonna say Roberts definitely can't do it. Don't feel like we saw enough of him earlier in the season to say. Maybe he'd be just as good at it.

Is this our fourth game in a row we've scored 3 goals? When was the last time that happened I wonder.

It was in 1993/4 under Lennie Lawrence. (Stat courtesy of @untypicalboro on Twitter.)

Steffan is so good somebody remind me of the fa score against prem team.

 

[Otto42]

Steffan’s an important player for us playing out from the back, yes he makes mistakes but which player doesn’t at this level? Geordies two down now, what a day!

 

[Chris_Boro]

And Pope's been sent off!

Liverpool pip them for fourth and Man Utd win the League Cup, don’t like Liverpool but I’ll take that. They’ll enjoy the Europa Conference or whatever it’s called!

 

[Ipad1977]

We're creeping up on the goal difference front as well - Sheff Utd +24 to our +18

Aye, take care of the points and the GD will take care of itself. We've also scored 2 more than the Blades too now, which stands to be improved on further if we catch them. Handy if the GD is tied.

 

[TeessideCleveland]

Every corner of ours caught by their goalie, ridiculous

We seemed to have perfected that today. Left foot right foot inswinger outswinger Barlaser Giles - same outcome every time. Actually found it quite funny

Probably setting WBA up to think we're not a threat at corners and it'll be a Lenihan hat-trick of headers

 

[BoroMart]

Right. Drop him. Enoughs enough, it’s every game there’s some sort of error.

Behave lad, it’s not every game and he’s made plenty of big saves as well as plenty of good distribution to start our attacks. He’s not perfect but he’s good enough
