Boro v Portsmouth match thread

[Hound]

I fear a score draw, 2-2 maybe.

[erimus74]

Another Boro Pompey blast from the past

FAC 3rd round replay with Boro winning 3-0 goalscorers, David Armstrong,Terry Cochrane & Craig Johnston

C'mon Boro!

Morning Erimus, great football thread on here - makes a change. Remember quite vividly some of the covers from the past

Heart says a win today, head says a draw. No easy game is this. They have secured a couple of points against decent opposition.

On another note, hope the book sales are going well, pal.You certainly deserve decent sales.

Portsmouth will need to have a perfect defensive display to get anything today.

An early Boro goal would be ideal

I'm feeling a bit weird about this one.. funny time of year. They have a great defensive record, they do well on the road and they took Leeds to a 3-3 draw straight out of the blocks.

Hmm.. 1-0 boro.. cautious win.. first half outside of the box banger.

A tough 2-1

That's a bit contradictory isn't it? Great defensive record, but conceded 3 in their last game.

They were strong defensively last season though, so I take your point.

Yeah.. fucked it.

Just feels like one of those potential banana skin games.

Traditional kick Cmon Boro!

[erimus74]

My concern is regardinv Dijksteel, shouldnt have been dropped v Derby, especially after a MOTM performce a goal & should have been an assist too, he'll feel he's only getting his game due to injuries, not ideal for a players mond no knowing no matfer how he performs as soon as players are fit hes dropped

[teamboro]

WtF 0 1 already
 

[Clem Fandango]

[Steboro]

Absolutely dreadful defending and communication.

[Kippers]

A mess

[Clem Fandango]

Keystone Kops defending today - and a gift if a goal last week. 

Come on Boro switch yer fucking brains on.

[Clem Fandango]

[teamboro]
