Not being negative but I now think Boro will take 2nd now 😔

[Harry's Game]

Hop you didn’t have a niggling feeling this morning, that you were going to burn your toast, miss the bus, and forget your lunch?
Maybe you should keep your niggling feelings unsaid, as it does have a tendency to make you look a tit, every time you say em.

Didn’t read the all post did you?

Oh .. and when I want advice on what to post on here I’ll ask someone who’s managed more than 370 posts in over six years if it’s all the same with you ?

FUN FACT
When Michael Carrick took over as Boro boss, they were 9 points behind United.... They finished 16 points behind United

 

[St Albans Blade]

They somewhat surprisingly ended 16 points behind us!
The discussion is whether that is due to our brilliance or the paucity of the Championship this season?

 

[Ndiayewillalwaysloveyou]

Is this porktalk,, the arrogance is palpable. We're not there yet FFS.

Nailed on were going up

 

[TimofeeVee]

Never been more pleased not to be in Coventry!

I wake up everyday and think "thank fuck I'm not in Coventry"

Bit confused, Boro are playing Coventry on the telly in a playoff semi, I was under the impression from their fans that they had achieved autos when they beat us in February,

I tried several times (and failed I think) to point out that although Boro were moving up the table and so were getting closer to us league position wise, if we took into consideration our games in hand they didn't really threaten us for any sustained period. I think it was more about Sky and other media banging the drum.

Quite interesting looking at the table after 1/3 of the season

2 of the bottom 4 are currently still fighting in the plays offs.

1 ‘nearly’ made the play offs in wba

And Huddersfield averaged over 2 points a game (Automatic form) under Warnock.

Mad league

 

[Chingo]

Just saying!

 

[1973Blade]

Have they caught us yet?

I'm admittedly biased as I used to live there, but Coventry is fine (especially these days, 25 years ago it was more of a hole I'll admit), and the only redeeming feature Middlesbrough has over it is that the Spoons is the cheapest I've ever found

Cheeky bid for Akpom

Only good thing ro come out of Coventry is The Specials

 

[Chingo]

Prutton , Hinchcliffe , Goodman and Hendrie … your boys took a hell of a beating

 

[paidsy]

What a terrible shame

 

[Bladesdoc]

Coventry did a job on them

 

[Gimli]

I reckon Boro probably won’t take 2nd now, not being negative.

 

[originaltrueblade]

Boro now fuck off into obscurity

 

[Foxy]

I’m still shitting myself.

 

[71Blade]

Yep I got that wrong lol

Carrick def manager of year contender...... FFS

 

[Flatulent_Bob]

looking for the unstoppable Boro like..

 

[Baldblade1889]

Doesn’t matter that they lost.
They were already promoted in February.

Pity. They won't play Wendy who were promoted in March.

 

[Stannington Blade]

In all honesty, I feel sorry for them...

No? Me either

 

[jono_t2000]

Blades11 you had one chance and you blew it.... talk about bottlejobs!

Carrick will be off to bigger and better things now. Your loan signings will all go back to their clubs and that will be that

Enjoy another 10 years in the wilderness!!

Robins did a job on media darling Carrick. Played deep at home to negate their counter attacking they play away from home, then away he plays higher up and stifles their attack.

 

[crucialkneeligaman]

Boro looked some team at the Lane but bottled it at season's end. Coventry on a roll might just do it.
