Acun doesn’t have the luxury of time with this shower of ****. He needs to make the appointment this weekend.
Why, this weekend? No one but the nutcases on here, thought we'd get anything today....Season might be starting next week vs Blackburn, then midweek to Watford. Let Daws take both games and take it from there.
 
but seriously wat are you expecting Dawson to do?
He was part of Shota's staff that got sacked he was part of Rosie's team that was sacked, he was part of Tim's staff that got sacked. He's got no experience real management experience and yet people want him to get the job till xmas or end of the season.
He's like the playerr that goes out on loan and we think he'll come back a world beater

I agree. Middlesbrough are a good side and Dawson isn’t a manager.

We don’t really know how good a coach he is really - he’s probably popular amongst the players but doesn’t have the tactical nous to change things too much.

I think it’s been an improved performance and that’s ok.

The referee has contributed in part to our demise here.It's a blatant foul,how he's missed that I have no idea?

Since then we've huffed and puffed but shown no real threat.We've got problems with this squad,I've been saying it for weeks...We've bought some absolute dross and it's going to take a huge amount of work to craft this into a Football team.

Come on Andy lad,change as you see fit and give it a shot 2nd half..UTT.
 
Cody been awful but put him on the right, and let Coyle do a job on the left which we know he can do from last year. Free hit today, always up against it, doesn’t help when the ref bottles a blatant sending off
I agree with this it's a basic error playing Drameh on the left when you have Jacob or Giles, Giles might have been up for it today V his old team

Macca, for all his detractors on here, isn't having a bad game, he's v good on the ball, plays a lot of progressive passes
Jesus. I love Macca for his attitude and effort, but he's been terrible on the ball. He takes way too long to decide what to do, rolls slow passes to Jones which allow the opposition to get across and cover, and occasionally hoofs a long ball into touch. He's doing a good job of demonstrating why Hughes plays instead of him.
 
Boro are like Flashman and City like Tom Brown.
I fear them being roasted in front of an open fire before being tossed in a blanket in the second half.
 
This lot will throw any manager under the bus because they’re crap and have no heart or fight. I’m not even annoyed anymore. It’s just how they are.
 
We shouldn’t be 2 down, but for Drameh we likely wouldn’t be. Pedro might well have scored but for the ref. Anybody who thinks we look no better than Tuesday is wrong. We’re still not very good but we don’t deserve some of the flack on this thread. UTT.

It feels like the negativity is a bit of a spiral in here. It's telling that GFAW who hasn't read the thread is much more positive than a lot of those posting all half. It's almost like a bit of a groupthink takes over

People will have a big awakening thinking a new manager is going to fire this shower of ****e up the table

As soon as we concede a goal heads go down as we're lacking confidence. Need to fight second half; start to put a bit more fire in our belly. It's not just about today, it's about the rest of the season.

I hate Giles, gets better the longer he’s not in the team, comes back in and he’s just as lazy, timid and ****e as he’s ever been for us.

Acun needs to tear his brain team a new one, they've spent a fortune in the summer and ended up with a worse team than we had when he took over
