* The Unofficial "Official" Boro v Leeds United [04/24] Match Day Thread *

[TheYorkshireTerrier]

We’re all Ipswich and Leicester now aren’t we?

 

[Hap]

Great game of football.

A full fit squad with the new lads settled in properly…

Bodes well for next season.

 

[Defender 4x4]

Could have won bar d***heads penalty. Never want to him again.

 

[Laughing]

Come on Laughing, you are better than that.

Ya think?

To be honest Norman, it's been one complaint after another when we have a cobbled together defence.

It's very ungratifying from grown men.

We did brilliant in that game with what we had available to pick from

 

[Norman_Conquest]

We just need a fully fit squad.

Something we haven't had since day 1. The team has done well to finish where they have.

 

[sadgit]

I'm shattered now... Gilbert looked brilliant

 

[Chris_Boro]

Some emotional swings in this thread.

 

[GingerTravel]

While the romantic in me would like Ipswich to go up, thinking selfishly of next season we would be best served by Leicester, Leeds and Southampton being promoted. We look like we've got a team, with a few key additions, that could really challenge next season

 

[Laughing]

Something we haven't had since day 1. The team has done well to finish where they have.

We can end on an agreement norm.

 

[Huddboro]

Great entertainment- Lath and VDB class apart. Bangura when fit starts at left back. Centre mid and another forward needed and we’ll be around top 6 next season easily with injured players back. Lath fit = top 6 this year.

 

[Blindschool]

Because the manager has his favourites sadly.

Do you think he should play players that he doesn't rate?

 

[Ravshoutsatbeck]

Superb game.

Lost to a ridiculous offside... I'd be furious if I was Ipswich. Also - they wasted 2 minutes in injury time and the ref added... 5 seconds.

Some stupid mistakes from a rusty back up right back, and Clarke who is mostly superb.

We have grown so much over the past few months - and have a superb striker.

Bring on August!

 

[SmogOnTheTees]

Good game.
A team with a defence like Leeds in the Premiership won't last long.
We showed we can score, with a coal shunter and three old wagons, so well done lads overall.

Came here to say the same thing. Leeds won't last more than a season in the Premier league if they play like that. Doubt they'll keep summerville for long too.

The lad's got something, hasn't he? He needs more game time.....probably next season now.

 

[Smogga]

Bangura and Gilbert great cameos, promising for next season!

If he's fit, Bangura should be playing ahead of Thomas in absence of Engel.

Also would like to see Gilbert starting ahead of Greenwood in final games

 

[MidlandsBoroFan]

4-3 against a top team when 1 of their goals was blatantly offside. Started with our 3rd choice full backs, missing several centre backs and our best midfielder.

A bit of luck next season, we’ll be all right.

 

[outoftown]

Makes you optimistic for next year ...
The fight is there ..
If not quite the quality

 

[BoroMad87]

OK well it was obriens fault for the tackle which took the ball away from Clarke but then rav nor dijksteel closed down summerville showed him inside and dieng left a big gapping gap for summerville to pass into but Clarke should of been there to prevent the goal

 

[McMordie]

If Norwich go down with flu and decide not to turn up for their next game we could still be promoted.

Never say never. It's happened before.

If he's not fit Bangura should be playing ahead of Thomas.......
