    Will they ****.

    Leicester are league champions, all they needed was change and a kick up the arse to get them going.

    Boro were **** under Karanka and will remain **** with no manager, as Luv says it more or less condemns them as down. If we can't beat them then we are also ****.

    By the way, you keep saying it but Leicester didn't turn into anything remotely like Barcelona. <ok>

    Middlesborough are evil bastards. Fancy sacking the manager when he was going to get them relegated.

    Really poor decision.

    Yes they're on a bad run but they're hard to beat.

    It didn't feel like he was out of control.

    Who the **** would want that job now?

    Maybe McLown.

    This only makes sense if the new manager is given special dispensation by the PL to sign a striker.

    Or he could get one that is out of contract. There's loads of top quality strikers kicking their heels at this time of the season. Der's dat der Mickey Quinn for one. Put it in da back of da onion bag der Mickey son.

    They've severely lacked creativity for months. Good defensively, but they don't look like scoring.
    I feel sorry for Karanka, as he did very well to get them promoted in the first place.
    Kane and Lukaku have scored as many goals individually as they have as a team, though.

    Who exactly are they going to get in? Pardew? <laugh>

    Seems strange timing to me, now you've given it this long you may as well let him see it out imo.

    Wrong thread.

    It was a picture of a dog turd.

    Maybe it was actually in the right thread after all.

    They're a bit of a confused club. They like to behave like a PL club but they're Championship really.
