* The Unofficial "Official" Boro v Preston North End Match-Day thread *

[Laughing]

The difference from saturday is, firstly we scored first and more importantly, 5 shots, 5 on target and 3 goals. We have finished our chances today.

If it stays like this I'd give Clarke half an hour.

Remember that guy who text BBC Tees last week and said we needed to replace Carrick with Pearson ASAP

There's been plenty of clowns like that on this board.

 

[Defender 4x4]

I think MC has given them a good kick up the ass. It's worked wonders. Super first half. Hope they continue in the second half.

 

[Chutney]

Any significance in us playing a heavily Dutch back four?

 

[Norman_Conquest]

If it stays like this I'd give Clarke half an hour.

I would let these four stay together and gel.

I can only believe this guy is an example as to why you don't drink and take drugs all day

Me too. Fry might have to wait a while for his chance.

To put the mockers on things, the Geordie's are 1-0 up at PSG.

Howson has been immense

 

[Ravshoutsatbeck]

Patient opening (allowed them possession without then creating anything).

Barlaser makes a difference with his passing - I really like the balance with him and Howson.

Rogers is really good.

I'd like to see LL notch one as he's worked his puddings off tonight.

 

[Laughing]

Another great move

Given the way tonight is panning out, I couldn't give a shiny $hite.

And I seem to have cursed barlaser who has come out for the second half asleep!

Wait until tomorrow when the Geordie media gets in full flow and tell me that.

Clarke needs to stretch his legs because we are going to need him at some point soon you would think.

Potts could have been sent off for that tackle on paddy. Was very dangerous and very high. Last thing we need is another crocked CB.

Definite red - lucky not to break Paddys's leg
