*~*~* Middlesbrough v Sunderland match thread *~*~*

[wev17]

2 standard championship teams, could see why neither are in play offs. Can't talk for Sunderland but Boro's only hope is McGree, Jones and most importantly Latte Lath come back in firing.

We'll never get a better chance to win at Boro. They were piss poor today. That halftime team talk by beale must have been given in ancient Greek...

He said, side pass,back pass, pass back, side pass then hoof it. O.K.

 

[Geppetto]

Should have beaten them. We'll go on to finish in the playoffs. The new lads will settle in and Rusyn will continue to score. Roberts is back. All good.

 

[Georgewhitt]

Rusyn has to be given a run of games now shirley.
He worked his nuts off when he came on, and their back 4 were completely thrown by his movement.
He really does deserve a decent run to prove himself imo.

I'm assuming your players decided to treat is a derby today? Must have been why we didn't win.

Thought it was a good game. Even first-half but felt we dominated the majority of the 2nd half. If we had a striker we'd have won that. I did think you were going to win it at the end mind.

On a side note, unfortunately a lot of your fans let themselves down with some disgusting chants before, during and after the game. Absolute morons.

See you next season.

Our fans let us down with some disgusting chants? You OK hun? If you want man hugs and swing low, sweet chariot, go watch the Union man.

Canny 1st half...but we were bealed at half time and camped out in our own half for the 1st 15 minutes of the 2nd inviting the inevitable boro goal. It won't be our players efforts that let us down but the goon in charge tactics or lack of

There's banter, and then there's singing about us being paedos in front of families, and potentially victims of sexual abuse.

I don't go to the football to have to listen to that shit.

 

[jayjaysafc]

You’d have to ask him but whenever he’s co commentating he’s far from positive about us

Always subtle digs
The block on the line from Ba was a terrible miss apparently. Defender in right place at right time for me

 

[pRICK]

Over the moon for Naz. And cheers to @flusheding for posting the goal

 

[Teesside_Steve]

And Boro fans were paragons of virtue .

Glass houses and all that……

Didn't say we were, but chanting about child abuse is just sick.

If 2000 Sunlun fans are heard over 30 odd thousand Boro fans, then I'd say that's a problem for sure.

 

[Gideon Gungeon]

point and a pump mate. could be worse imo

After you equalised the first song you sang was "shag your children". Could hear it loudly and clearly from the opposite end of the stadium.

Barely a peep out of you after we scored. Fantastic support.

The Adam Johnson chant must have passed you by then , to be fair it passed most of you nuggets by.

As I said , glass houses….

One chant, which I'll happily condemn. Your lot were singing paedo songs before, during and after the game.

 

[humbug]

just got back. first half as even although we should've scored. we started off poor in the 2nd till the subs. after we equalised we looked more threatening and likely to win. the referee was absolute chod. was quite impressed with the new lad, he looks very composed and assured.
also, drums should be banned. they're the go to instrument of tin pot clubs.

Singing about historical facts unfortunately , deal with it.

 

[woodlebert]

Yes that's why it's NO goals and NO assists this season.Funny old game football,all about the stats !

Yes. It doesn’t tell you anything other than Roberts creates more chances people shoot from. Interpreting that data is the key

Didn't you all sing about Adam Johnson??

 

[Ohnonotagain]

Thought Ekwah, Bellingham and Burstow should have been hauled off at half time, kicked out the dressing room and told to fuck off and walk home.

We are missing a terrier type player in the middle for me. Move the ball quicker .The 3 are very similar. Looking forward seeing Styles in there.

He is very one-footed.
