    Boro are a shambles defensively. Nobody reacted to the free kick hitting the bar. I know the owner came out and backed Carrick last week but I think that will be revisited soon.

    . On a bottle of Havana club ( and wishing I was back in Cuba)

    but put the coke in the freezer for 15-20mins before making it and it’s like an alcoholic slushie

    It's poor to be not top 2. We don't outscore the top 2 or defend better than them. The goal differences are wild given this stage of the season and I feel that shows it.

    I would try to sort out defence. We concede too many. 09 would go for me. Get the best 2 centre backs starting.

    for the most part is gonna come down to

    Leeds V Sheff Utd
    Burnley v Sheff Utd

    Needs Sheff Utd to lose both games for me and a massive favour from Coventry, the most obvious banana skin

    Burnley v Coventry & Sheff Utd v Coventry

    And we need to be perfect

    I want to see Mepham and Ballard with 2 proper full backs either side (Hume and Cirkin)

    It’s the way to go now imo

    It is but we draw more than them all. Thats the exact point I am making. We have drawn many more than the top 2. So we need to pick a side. Because we ain't great defensive or class offensive. This is just to make up ground.

    Not saying it's **** but that's why we are significantly behind the top 2

    You do keep banging this drum and yet the one game they played together neither looked particularly comfortable.
    Perhaps they need time to form a partnership, but do we have that time?

    weve also scored late goals and conceded late goals, thats by the by but the two pens missed by Burnley are in a class of their own, both basically game winning pens, those extra 2 points and burnley getting zip would have been big. Really should have picked up an additional 2 points from watford/plymouth and thats the difference.

    Not a single doubt about that

    But, but but Luke carries the ball out well. Let’s defend first eh

    Before you go to bed just a word of advice ...

    ... never buy a bottle of Limoncello for less than £20, always keep it in the freezer and pour it into a chilled glass.

    And don't forget the sunscreen <laugh>

    3-0. Ruthless in a game they haven't exactly played well in.

    I think Burnley go up automatically

    2 defeats all season, 9 goals conceded

    They’ll finish above Sheff United imo

    Just need to focus on us. And keep a healthy gap between us and those below us
