Blott, I really can't be arsed to reason with such a person who has entrenched views.

You award a badge of pride to Gibbo for appointing Southgate and Woodgate.

Really? Are you for real? Both were lazy, easy to complete appointments - and both ultimately found wanting.

So absolutely no point debating with someone whose viewpoint lists failures as Gibbo successes

that's because you can't argue with it. Woodgate in hindsight Was a mistake Southgate manages England.


Go on tell me which of those big decisions were wrong. Back that up with how you value MFC. For me it's the assets; the ground, the training facilities, cash flow of guaranteed season tickets, the players just to start. I would guess that at North of £250 million. How much do you think the training facilities sold to a house builder is worth? You have never answers apart from being a downer.  You generalise and never give back up to your Gibson is shit.

I was watching it with a Hull City fan and he thought Boro were by far the better team. It came as a total shock to him that Hull even managed to equalise, never mind win.

I thought we played pretty well with stand out performances from VdB and Howson. I think VdB is absolute quality and at only 19. He isn't a RB but can cover the role if needed, he's the best CB we have at the club for me.
Howson was quality again and I think he could do one more season, he's fitter than ever.

Crooks and Jones are no Toshack and Keegan! There's no telepathy there, it seems as though they're getting worse at reading each other.

Barlaser has some fantastic passing skills in his locker but needs to toughen up defensively and learn when to pick the pass and when to hold the ball.

Engel impressed bar a few loOse moments defensively, I think he's a 'baller.
I like Dieng, best keeper we've had for a long time.

With Hackney, McGree & O'Brien missing (Greenwood seems to now believe that he's better than he is after his free kick goal) there are grounds for hope for the midfield when they return.

ELL works hard and has that striker's instinct for a finish but he needs a proper No 10 to work with.

Not too disappointed in the performance. I still think we'll finish in the top 6.

Agree in all that

I wasn't there last night so cannot comment on the performance. But stop being so positive it makes you a poor Boro fan.
