    It would have been hilarious if Chris Martin or Benty scored the winner but they're both bloody injured! <doh>

    Neither of them back for the weekend?

    Derby are on a right wobble at the minute - funny considering how much ££££ they're spending :D :D :D

    Seem to recall us battering Boro 2-0 at home, with Karanka admitting Bishop was the best player on the park.

    Surely our midfield can cope with donkey Leadbitter - perhaps him and Tabb can have a worst corner EVER competition on Saturday.

    Donkey Leadbitter has scored what, thirteen this season?
    We'll win this 2-1.

    San Diego I'm also relatively confident for this one. Games at a much better time for us.

    * McGoldrick expected to be in the squad.
    * Bishop/ Chaplow/ Wood all more matchfit.
    * S Hunt back.
    * Murphy and co have a bit of a rest before going again.

    I really don't think we'll lose this at all.

    Makes no difference Westy, he will still play Tabb, Skuse, Parr and Anderson in midfield!!

    He'll surely start one of Bishop/Bru? I'd imagine Bru is a guaranteed starter due to workrate. Also fancy Chaplow to start. Sadly think Tabby will and Skuse. So that's the midfield four I think Mick will go for meaning.......

    Gherken

    Chambers/Smith/Berra/ Mings

    Skuse
    Tabb Chaplow
    Bru

    Murphy Sears.

    That said -
    * Hunt COULD start
    * Bishop COULD start
    * Parr COULD start
    * Anderson COULD start
    * Varney / Wood COULD start in a 4-3-3!?

    For the first time in a while we have some options.

    Who is going to be the unlucky player to miss the bench!? Bialokowski/ Matt Clarke will. Donnolly could! Stewart probably won't.

    An intelligent Boro fans viewpoint on tomorrow -

    " “I will be glad when this season is over. It’s doing my head in now. Seriously, I was enjoying it with us at the top "

    WAAHHHHHHHHHHHHHH

    Disagree partially Warky - Lose at Boro and we're only a maximum of four points off sixth with nine to play - 27 points on the table. While it doesn't make achieving the play offs any easier, to write our season off with nine games to go is somewhat fickle and flippant. Likewise should we win, that doesn't mean " oh yeah hard team out the way steamroll Bolton 4-0 Tuesday E I E I E I O "

    Defeat though and automatic is 100% off though - Mick is honest enough to admit this.

    The one thing I love about using forums is how up and down people are. It's actually hilarious. Win and we're special, lose Mick out. Really cracks me up.

    It's called being realistic in my book <ok> We should have beaten Brentford at a canter last week and yet we fooked it up thanks in part to Murphy's miss and Mick's clueless subs!

    Sometimes things go for you sometimes things don't - we have TEN games to go.

    Have to see what tomorrow brings first off.

    Even if we were to lose Warky, Brentford and others aren't guaranteed to win.

    There is no way in hell I'm writing us off whatever the result tomorrow, we have a chance and until we haven't I will believe.

    So who wants MM out then, (apart from the bloody obvious) who has changed their minds about him since the start of the season.?
    Some of us have been more critical of his selections and tactics over the past month or two but I don't see (on here at least) a significant movement in numbers wanting him out...similarly many of us have criticised his tactics and team selection on a fairly regular basis, it is always going to be more frequent when we are on a less than successful run of results.

    Heard someone say this the other day 'Winning ugly is great but losing ugly is pointless'. I think this is why when we go on a struggle under Mick because it's not pretty there's not alot you can get out of it. But win, draw or lose tomorrow it's so difficult to tell what's going to happen in this league not least because it seems everyone has still got to play each other!!!

    Sounds to me that you've chucked the towel in JW? Not like you to not be arsed?
    Still not got over the Derby defeat yet? I'd have thought you'd be used to that feeling by now?

    Exactly Canary Chippy people seem to chuck the towel in with nine to play, unbelievable really! Gonna take longer for me to put the white flag up that's for sure.
