Totus tuus minimus canus; Costacurta, Baggio, Roberto. It’s the latest away day for Boro’, and it’s almost time to call for some divine intervention to halt this unholy run of form on the road. It is a great comfort this week, however, to know that – no matter how bad …
It was too good to be true, of course it was. Our last FIFA 18 Verdict had good intentions, but – quite frankly – poor foresight. The margin of the win, however, was spot on. So, do bear that in mind when you come to mull over the outcome of …
The first Reading tie was a chance lost. The second Reading tie was another chance lost. And, in-between, we had to call on a Fraser Franks GOLAZO at Morecambe to stop us from losing on the road again. Still, we could all be Barnet fans; a hellish existence at the …
Twice. In fact, it’s twice in a row. That’s how many times our FIFA 18 Verdict has been half right in the past two times it’s been tested. This is a dangerous development. It almost qualifies the time we spend with the PS4 as an actual work of science. It rightly …
No points up for grabs and no historic personal milestones; just a chance to travel to either Carlisle or Sheffield Wednesday in the Fourth Round. That’s the bottom line here, folks. The FA Cup isn’t always glamorous, nor is it always romantic. But we’re still in it, and that is …
For wordy-birdies like ourselves, we do sometimes have to let numbers do the talking. For a feat as mammoth as setting Boro’s new all-time appearances record, pure and unadulterated numerical figures can put the man that is Ronnie Henry into a *much* easier context to digest. So, come fill your …
Barker, Radford, Biggs, Wood, Corbett, O’Sullivan, Reagan or McDonald; ask a random stranger in the street to name their favourite Ronnie and there’s no shortage of options. They’d be feckin’ confuddled, if not downright scared. But they’d still have a big ol’list to choose from. And Ronnie Moore. Even us as …
It’s nice to be wrong. Well, on occasion. Let’s not think we’re out to make a habit of this or anything. And our last FIFA 18 Verdict was at least half right; Boro’ failing to score upheld one side of the bargain we created. A new week brings with it …
This match finds itself in an unfortunate situation. On one hand, it could well be a historic occasion for us – and for Ronnie Henry in particular. On the other hand, it’s the proverbial filling in our FA Cup sandwich. After failing to bump off Reading indoors, we’ll renew that …
Ah, the world of make-believe. You know, it can be a great leveller if the delicate balance is interrupted by one side being clearly better than the other. Or should that be supposedly? Ignore the weather, forget the state of the pitch and shake off any potential twinge; the control pad is …
