Boro thread

I agree with everything you say apart from yous being the better team in the first half. It was 50/50 at best. What I’m tying to do is let one of your 26,000 fans known Middlesbrough are a small time club from Yorkshire.

County Durham and wearside is like 800k for one club Cleveland is 700k for 3 500k for us 800k for you. That’s why. Is what is 26,000 for the championship is a decent gate, Sunderland are a bigger club than us who are a medium sized club but it’s not at all relevant to todays result is it

Don't agree. No one was in control. That's why it was a good game.

Totally agree. Proper even stevens first half. Given that we usually defend by attacking, By playing Ba up front on his own we effectively surrendered any ability to attack which also meant we also lost out in midfield. Boro would probably still have won against 10, but f**k me that 2nd half set up made it easier than it should have been

Shouting at a ref has been part of the game for ever, it's an emotional game. You should be allowed to vent with words, actions are obviously different. Saying 'it's a f***ing foul' is a joke of a yellow card.

In that case the jokes on SAFC and it’s fans courtesy of Dan Neil not the ref. Ifhedsaid nowt we’d be three points better off. You and anyone else aren’t helpingNeil as a person or a player by making excuses for his childish unprofessional petulance.

Give over ffs. Basically foaming over one result long season and obviously the ref affected the game but that’s football you collapsed in the 2nd half ten men or not 4-0 still shows we were the better team. And first half we were, you have the stronger squad on paper but it’s a long season

You weren’t better first half. Dan Neil shouldn’t have let his mouth go but that was frustration due to the constant fouls that went unpunished. Ref then got worse second half. But congratulations beating 10 men with 12.
 
It is amazing when Sunderland beat us when we were down to ten men last season it was because they were really good and nothing to do with the sending off.

Now ten men DO matter apparently.😉

It was pretty even. You had a few chances but you weren’t great where you. You beat us last season with ten we did you. At present I’d still have you to finish above us but there’s a transfer window in January but 3 quarters of the season to go

Respectfully disagree. Ref at fault, if the ref had then continued to be consistent with this i could have had more truck with it but he lost all control of the game.
 
Difference was we were the better team before the sending off last season. Fair play to yas. Enjoy it. Hopefully our young uns will suck it up, learn and pump the shit out of yas in the return game.
