Match Day Thread Middlesbrough FC v Sunderland AFC – Monday 3rd February 2025 - KO 20:00

By whom and, are you excluding yourself?

Easy to generalise tbh.

 

I’m not going to label it, but I’m happy to include myself if you think so. There’s a multitude of people and it happens all the time.

I try to stay out but it’s all a little bit boring

 

Urrgghhh
I should banish you to the Mr R A White thread

 

It’s a forum with strong opinions and sometimes people disagree. If you generally question those opinions it’s vague and pointless. I believe that if you disagree with someone’s opinion you should quote them directly, not lump everyone in. That’s a bit of a smokescreen and ‘firing from cover’ imo.
Quoting someone seems to be frowned upon and sweeping generalisations preferred.

If I disagree I prefer to be direct and ask a question …

… if people don’t like that perhaps a vibrant football forum isn’t the comfiest place.

Sorry but there’s a convenient ignore button if it gets too much.

 

Very encouraging the way we handled last period of game too. Hope that's the new normal.

 

So much so that the Boro fans vanished even before the final whistle …

… that reinforces what you’ve said.

 

After all the other comments about the game last night, I thought I'd add one more which can only be classed as positive - the missus and step daughter actually watched the match whilst I was at work with no one else in the house. And the claim to not like football!!!

Right now I'm going to try and get back to sleep for work again tonight

 

Don't think Sky made a comment that people were leaving like they do at our place. Not sure about ITV

 

I’ll watch the match again tonight, without the tension but with a pint. I’m ashamed to say I left an almost full glass of Moretti untouched last night, nerves. It was there when I came down today and I had to pour it down the sink …

… I said a few words as it drained away, like a burial at sea

 

Funny how nobody ever gets lucky and plays us at the right time.

We’ve had injuries to pay players all season.

Doesn’t it work if it’s not us? Only we get this mythical lucky timing?

 

I think we draw that game 2-2 without Le Fee on the pitch. He's already paying off.

 

He is a strange bloke, he was giggling like a schoolchild before the game.

He seems to have a sense of entitlement about him and a bit of magnanimity wouldn't go amiss. I am sure he refused to shake LeBris' hand after the game at the SOL

 

what a mag having that never

 

As I said earlier was at work with me jock m8s and after the initial we wouldn’t beat many Scottish teams they were very impressed with our young squad

 

Already posted

 

Club shop window.....

 

Ah, come on

 

The way we are progressing this season is brilliant,personally think the teams we’ve been playing in the past few months have been fortunate that we are playing with a unbalanced team,can’t wait for one of our natural left sided players to come back
Oh and that touch from Enzo….sublime
