I am not normally such a mean spirited person but honestly mate it is hardly fair to make such sweeping statements. Why must everything with Boro be black and white. Not everybody that expresses disappointment, sometimes in the heat of the moment, is a fool or "not a true fan". Sorry if I was a bit harsh; I guess you just pressed my buttons a wee bit with some of your statements. We agree on at least one thing anyway UTBAnonymoushttps://www.blogger.com/profile/14555518914242882700noreply@blogger.comtag:blogger.com,1999:blog-5240564736285815223.post-6281139913467749782010-08-27T00:06:36.154+01:002010-08-27T00:06:36.154+01:00Thanks for the articulate comments Garry, its far ...Thanks for the articulate comments Garry, its far easy to abuse in a few lines than to write a piece on your thoughts.

Stick to the single syllable words Sid. Meanwhile I am off to read something a bit more informed, a lot more articulate and with some basis in fact. Keep banging the drum and maybe you will get a few more followers from the sub 100 IQ brigade.

I hear the expert moaners ( some of who have never been to the Riverside ),pontificating , and offering EDUCATED OPINION , on the problems with Strachan / Gibson / Miller / Hoyte to name a few . You only EARN the right to moan , when you GO to the game . You only EARN the right to be called a FAN , when you go to the match at the expense of the missus / holidays / kid`s / dog , and suffer the verbal abuse every Saturday night in the club , when some ex-FAN , informs you , " they wont get me there again till we win summat !"<br />If they choose not to go to the matches , they LOSE the right to be called a FAN .Soft Sid ( Saltburn )noreply@blogger.comtag:blogger.com,1999:blog-5240564736285815223.post-22337293973382004972010-08-25T20:52:19.301+01:002010-08-25T20:52:19.301+01:00I hate Strachan, me!I hate Strachan, me!Anonymousnoreply@blogger.comtag:blogger.com,1999:blog-5240564736285815223.post-90786268611058273252010-08-25T20:50:05.025+01:002010-08-25T20:50:05.025+01:00I am not a huge fan of gordon strachans tactical a...I am not a huge fan of gordon strachans tactical ability but he doesnt half know how to pick a player Boyd, mcdonald, mcmanus and robson just a few examples these players could have been playing european football this year/last year but strachan has got them here weve played 3 games once the team gels together and we pick out boyd more often the goals and points will follow just keep the faith.

O...Here's Bernie Slaven's take on things -<br /><br />Our slow start to the season continues as we bowed out of the Carling Cup tonight, after only 2 rounds.<br /><br />Strachan cannot be accused of neglecting the competition as every player had first team experience.<br /><br />We had alot of possesion, but failed to turn it into goals.<br /><br />We grabbed a consilation goal when McDonald grabbed his 3rd goal of the season in the dying minutes, but it was much too late.<br /><br />The question I would ask the manager would be. Why was Kris Boyd on the bench?<br /><br />He grabbed his 1st goal for the club on Sunday against Sheffield United. He would have been looking to add to his tally and continue to form a partnership with McDonald.<br /><br />There is no doubt promotion is more important than cup competitions, but winning breeds confidence and goals breed confidence for the strikers and team in general.<br /><br />If Strachan had left me out of tonight’s game, I would have been knocking on his door in the morning.<br /><br />Managers live and die by their decisions, tonight Strachan has got it wrong, we are now on the cup scrap heap.<br /><br />As we are knocked out, people will now switch their mindsets to “Lets concentrate on the league.”<br /><br />If we don’t start to get our act together, our season could be over by Christmas.<br /><br />http://www.bernieslaven.co.uk/2010/08/carling-cup-millwall-2-middlesbrough-1/Now Then...noreply@blogger.comtag:blogger.com,1999:blog-5240564736285815223.post-68443613826302354792010-08-25T20:26:48.887+01:002010-08-25T20:26:48.887+01:00think some of these people only started supporting...think some of these people only started supporting the club in the glory years and thats all they want.

What about the "fans" (as you put them) who were neither happy with the appointment or Southgate or Strachan, your clearly missing that group.<br /><br />Ultimately the hierarchy tried to do things on the cheap and appointed Soutgate, and that is why we are in the mess we are now. I've still got be convinced by Strachan - are we in a better position than when he took over? Yes, however we are obviously lacking masses of pace in the side which any "clueless" person can see.Now Then....noreply@blogger.comtag:blogger.com,1999:blog-5240564736285815223.post-51016472497709946652010-08-25T20:16:53.931+01:002010-08-25T20:16:53.931+01:00Well said mate, these boro fans are starting to an...Well said mate, these boro fans are starting to annoy me now, lets cut the whinging and get behind the team!!Michaelhttps://www.blogger.com/profile/12822339586726199748noreply@blogger.com
