Nearly forgot about this with all the goings on. I'll be at work tomorrow not like most of you bastards on here. Stats n Facts. It's a ****hole. Will Brucey go 3-5-2 or stick with 4-4-1-1?? Mcgregor Odubajo Dawson Davies Robertson Snodgrass Jake Huddlestone Clucas Diame Hernandez Thats it for me. Maybe try Aluko wide left and drop Tom for Clucas in CM? Doubt it though. I think Diomande needs a try as first sub. Akpom can do one for me. I'd like to see a free kick or corner routine summat different. I'd like to see us take quick throw ins. I'd like to see us close their throw ins down like all teams do us. i'd like to see Tommy Huddlestone smash that ball every time he gets a sight of goal. 35 bloody yards out and a Forest player lashes it. Do it Tom you've got the ability. Do we want it more than them. We better do. We'd better show it. No prisoners. City to win 2-1.
A set piece or free kick routine? Bloody hell, you'll be expecting a goal from a set piece as well. I'd also add, man for man, there isn't one Middlesbrough player that I would have in our starting 11 - not one. We're a better team from 1-11, so tomorrow night they just need to go out and show it. I think an away game will suit us against these deluded Smoggy bastards. You are 100% right about it being a **** hole - it's like Goole without the charm. City 3-0
Huddlestone is never likely to surprise a goalkeeper from 30 yards Chazz. He takes too long to get himself set. A snap shot is not in his armoury. He moves like he's got the bones of a fifty year old.
My God, our players must listen to Bruce saying "If we can only nick a point, so be it," and "Middlesbrough are a very good side" and "We're aiming for 80 points" and shake their heads. Our manager should be saying, "We'll go up there, toe-to-toe with them, and back ourselves because of the strength of our squad. We go into every game hoping to win, and this game will be no different. We're aiming to win every game from here til the end of the season to pose as many questions to Burnley as we can." Instead he's coming across as timid and reserved, and it's clearly translating to the players!
I'm at work you ****. Ok I'm working from home. I might have a nap early afternoon too, but I am working. Seriously getting annoyed at our performances. I don't give a crap like at Forest, who plays for us, I just want to see 100% effort and the ****s playing as well as they can. We should hammer the ****ers 0-4 but I'd take a 0-1, but for that, it'd better be entertaining. Should exchange contracts today too, set to move 5th April, so that being confirmed and a win tonight should set me up for more ****ing packing this weekend just lovely. Come on City. FFS.
Funny enough I was just checking up on the one I want. Still need to confirm the site size it'll go on but will order it the day before we move. Yes, I'm excited about that. New shed, new office, older house, fencing to do, garden to design and sort out, can't wait!
Here's a fact to kick off the more interesting part of the MDT. A man got his knob chopped off in Middlesborough some time Wednesday night/Thursday early hours. Police caught him crawling round in the undergrowth next to a main road looking for it.
This thread might be worth a read post match, win or loss, just to read whatever hilarious ****e that Smoggo comes out with.
Huge game. A draw wouldn't be a bad result to be fair, keeps us in touch. A win would be a huge boost.
This was a mental game at Boro (went back to the car after the game and the car park was on a partly demolished industrial site and nobody had any idea where the road was under the snow)... please log in to view this image
