They are all dropping points right now, but one team will come out of the pack and put a run in. It happens every year…I just don’t think, with their defence, it will be Boro

The play offs are wide open because the teams currently in the positions are getting beat very regularly. Blackburn's (in 5th) current form is won 1 lost 4 out of their last 5 games. This has dragged about 8 teams into the play off mix.

I have been genuinely amazed at some of the comments like. My mate text me to say "You've done very well to get that squad into 4th" 
I genuinely think there's a lot of them that believe their squad is better almost position for position. Not sure if it's ignorance or what but how can you look at both teams on Monday and say any more than 1 Boro player would potentially get a game in our side? That's not me being arrogant but the squads are poles apart in terms of quality and the points difference clearly reflects that.

I've seen them a fair few times this year and their failing is they give up way to many easy chances. A lot of it due to unforced errors (their defenders are gank) but some of it due to the way they set up and the risks they take.
The only player of theirs that would get near out team is Hackney, and even then he wouldn’t be starting over Neil, Jobe or Rigg. They are delusional. Keep saying they’re fans saying that they worry about our squad depth. They’ve got a cheek. We’ve had bad injuries in pretty much every position in our team all season.I have been genuinely amazed at some of the comments like.

Yea, they keep going on about it but know of them know a lot about our squad and why would they, it’s just a fallacy that seems to have grown legs “their squad is paper thin and when they get a few injuries they’ll be back in lower mid table”. Then when it doesn’t happen it’s “well yea, but they haven’t had any injuries and played the same 11 every week”.
To be fair there’s a few realizing now, Carrick is clueless and we have a better squad and there is no way they are catching us.

Aye a wee touch of Pattersonitus.We’re the same with this passing out from the back lark, seems every club now wants to train it, my feeling is for players value to increase but it does no good for the heart!
Was good to see a keeper with the same level of kicking ability as Patto mind

Haha only old people describe us at North Yorkshire
, map lines change more than our back line selection, Teessiders. Probably a generation think if you’re like me early 30’s we’ve grew up with Juninho, Mendieta, Ravanelli, Boksic, Zenden, Emerson, Hasselbaink etc coming through the door, established Premier League club back then, won a cup & made a European final.
Did you watch Ravanelli when you were about two?Haha only old people describe us at North Yorkshire

I’d say I grew up when he was playing for you and I’m 48!
Shame you’re shite now though.Haha only old people describe us at North Yorkshire

I was 8 mate & had a season ticket first and earliest memories of being a Boro fan.
Back then we could compete financially with most teams in Europe. Premier League is a billionaires game

Watson,
Mundle,
Browne,
Alese,
Huggins,
Seelt,
Danns.
Samed and Poveda not operating at 100%.
It might not be as many as the ten he's listed, but it's still a hell of an injury list. Especially when you consider that atleast one of those players was valued at £15m+ by a Premier League side as recently as last week.
Out of the 9 players you mention 7 of them actually got injured playing for our first team. Admittedly only 1 of them would probably start now but most would be on the bench.
Only Samed and Danns were injured elsewhere.

This is how flawed there logic is.....
He names Forrs there 5th choice striker, yet Carrick started him over Conway
So Conway isn't very good or Carrick knows so little about football he's started his 5th choice striker over his first choice striker
