* The Unofficial "Official" Boro v Hull [11/24] Match - Day Thread *

He grabbed a handful of a loose shirt. If you think that made him slow down to such an extent he couldn't pull away then you've never had your shirt pulled. If he'd truly been in then he'd not have waited til he had no chance to get the ball before going down.

It's the Championship, not the NBA and the referee understood this.

I said to my lads, that the Hull striker fell the wrong way for the way he was fouled. Borges was pulling him backwards and he fell forwards, so it makes it harder for the ref to give it.
They just laughed at me though.🙄😁

Oh he certainly threw himself, however Borges could very easily have got the red before the attempt to convince the ref
 
Not brilliant today but as been mentioned before,a 3-1 win when not at our best is what makes a good team . Fry was outstanding today and will only get better with games , hopefully Morris will be
back soon , we have 2 strikers in Conway and LL who are finding the back of the net .let's look at the + Vs .next two games will show where we really are UTFB
 
Tactically Hull got this one all wrong - they played the exact kind of game that we thrive against. Was clear from very early on that short of any major slip-ups (always possible), it'd be a straightforward win, and our team played pretty well.

Great to see Dael and Hayden back! Azaz was fantastic. UTB.
 
If we stay clear of injuries, we'll be challenging top 2.

If we keep having the level of disruption to the team we have now, it will be challenging the play-offs.
We can’t go on long winning runs and can’t stop conceding. And also can’t stop getting injuries sadly
 
Didn't get to see the game today unfortunately, so if anyone has the highlights that would be appreciated 🙂

On a separate issue how can a women's international friendly between Mali amd Botswana be higher up the BBC Sport football scores page than our match?🤔

Entitlement of some of our fans is heading towards Sunderland and Geordie level. Needs checking lads, it's getting ridiculous.

We're a cracking team in the championship, one I think that is doing really well.

We beat Hull easily today despite the moaning. Meanwhile, Watford struggled and failed to score at home to QPR.
 
I enjoyed that. Could have been a man down before we scored but thems the breaks.

Nowhere near a finished article yet but the peices that are in place are an absolute joy.

Thanks to Hull for not parking the bus, it made it really helpful for us and at times not sure how they were a bottom 3 team.

Finn on song is like watching a conductor. Really impressed with Tommy Conway he most certainly will do.

Going to miss Doak when he goes back to the red scousers but making the most of him while he’s here
 
Accidental that
On balance, no penalty that

Assume these refer to the handball incident as I've just gone combing the thread for a mention.

Direct view down from the SW upper it was an absolute stonewaller so I'd be interested to see what other views show. It was a cut back behind the lad and tbh it looked in real time like he stretched / spread himself.

Not that I like using this as the standard but at the top level of VAR looks at it it's a penalty all day long IMO (again, based on what I saw in real time).

Had the result not gone the way it had I'd be rather fuming about this.

If we win 4 out of every 5 games for the rest of the season, we will get promoted automatically. You don’t have to win 7 or 8 on the bounce. It’s total points that matter, however you get them
