Boro thread

[JL1985]

I can think of anything worse mate

Even travelling to Wembley would be a nightmare

I felt like a caged tiger before the 2nd leg against Sheff Wed last season. The tension was through the roof but when Roberts scored it was one of the best moments ever.

Can kind of understand it with Sheff United. They gained the 3pts here with an offside goal and got another a couple of weeks later at Norwich to win.

More of a derby to them than we are

 

[McGregor]

Their worst nightmare is us sneaking into the play offs only just on the last day while they are already comfortably there, and we beat them over two legs.

 

[Monkeyspunk]

It’s still a huge ask for us to make the play offs imo . Boro are just about in the play offs as we speak and almost sure of a home tie second leg. Whatever we achieve this season it has been one of the most enjoyable to witness for many a year

If we make the play offs, I would fancy ourselves against any of the others.
Just a shade of doubt against Coventry.

Le's just qualify. Then let the fixtures sort themselves out !

Luton Middlesbrough and probably Millwall. Don’t think we’ll get the last spot

We like to play it down but we never stop talking about Boro. We had a 20 page thread last week arguing about how insignificant they are

And we owe them feckers big time

Let’s be honest, a Sunderland vs Boro play off final would be utterly horrific. The amount of problems it would cause would be ridiculous

Battle for Trafalgar Square

 

[Superbadross]

I honestly don’t think anyone’s beating Boro over two legs or at Wembley.

I hope I’m wrong, and we do - but I just can’t see it.

We have to get there first

I mean we've beat them over 2 legs this season like

 

[Daniels]

I’d be more worried about Luton

Same, the ideal scenario is Luton over 2 games in the play offs and Boro in the final. I think that way would be easier than the reverse.

 

[bahtat]

We’ve got a lot still to do to make the playoffs mind, win on Tuesday at home to Huddersfield and a result away at West Brom and it’s very much on.

Not really worried about Boro I think over the two legs we’d beat them, even with our striker issues.

Millwall are ones that would worry me, no problems meeting them at Wembley but wouldn’t want to go to their place looking to get a result

 

[gipetto]

Yeah, they've been lucky. Boro are a better side than Sheff Utd, but I think we are too if we had a fully fit squad.

The table doesn’t lie , Sheff Utd have been consistent
I do think we would be up there if Stewart had been available tho

Got to get to London first......

True.

We have to get there first

I don’t think it’ll be us

 

[edna]

For us to play away at Millwall second leg we would need to finish 3rd or 4th
6th v 3rd and 5th v 4th then reversed.
