I feel I spend too much time on here as well but surprised to see I've posted less than 1,200 times compared to your 7k+. Not sure if I should try harder to post more or be relieved that I'm not as addicted as many others! :LOL:

There’s only one village idiot I can see round here and it isn’t Carrick.

I find it really bizarre that so many fans think Carrick needs an experienced coach to turn to for advice. He has us playing some great football and but for a couple of defensive howlers in the first 3 games, and a lack of clinical finishing in the opposition box, we'd be right at the top of...

Time for the doom mongers to start believing in this team.

You worked hard to get all those names wrong :LOL:

It's really not hard to argue we utterly dominated the Portsmouth game, when the stats are as follows; Possession 70.5% v 29.5% Shots 30 v 7 On target 7 v 3 Corners 15 v 2 Touches in opposition box 67 v 9 Also, here's a direct quote from John Mousinho ".....from the balance of the game...

I'd expect the xG stats to reflect what I've seen with my own eyes, which is utter domination against Derby and Portsmouth and only 1 point due to poor finishing/final ball and two gifted wrapped goals for the opposition. We should have won both of those games on balance of play/chances...

I thought we would finish top 2 before a ball was kicked and I've seen nothing to make me change my mind on that. After 7 games the xG stats, for and against, indicate that Leeds and Boro are the best teams in this division. Granted we haven't delivered the results to prove that yet, but if we...

He had the most shots, the most passes, the most successful passes and the most successful dribbles of any Boro player today. I thought he was superb and very worthy of man of the match.

LL is a quality player and deserved the standing ovation when he went off. It’s only a matter of time before he starts scoring and goes on a run of goals. 😍

How about Lawrie McMenemy - Southampton 😜

The tide will turn tomorrow. I'm going 5-0 to get revenge for the League Cup mauling.

Lath has started 2 games since the Ipswich episode, which really isn’t enough body of evidence to say it’s affected him. He could score a couple of goals on Saturday and all will be right in his world.

It doesn't require a significant turnaround at all. We just need to turn one defeat into one win (W3, D2, L1 vs W2, D2, L1) and then win the 7th game at the end of the sequence.

The negativity on here is energy sapping. We are 6 games into the season and some people are throwing in the towel already. If the doom merchants above are right and we can't get more than 5 points from the next 7 games, why even bother talking about the playoffs? There's no point finishing...

That’s not true Glover. Derby's goal and Portsmouth's second had nothing to do with our left side, so before yesterday we had conceded 2 goals in 5 games that originated on our left. Hardly fits the description of inevitable.

It’s time for us to start putting the ball in the back of the net and I think we’ll do that at least 3 times tomorrow. Sunderland 1-3 Boro with a goal from Hackney is where my money is going.

Got to agree with this. Going back to 1994 would be massively different to today. Back then you had to buy music in a physical format, movies were rented from places like Blockbuster, you had to speak to a person to deposit money, set up a direct debit, etc. If you wanted to send a...

Exactly this. Some folks put far too much emphasis on a player's weaknesses and overlook their strengths and potential. It was clear early on that Rogers had a very high ceiling but some people were happy to write him off before the end of August. Micah Hamilton also has a very high ceiling...

Viv, you could also say we lost to a Derby team that has won 9 consecutive home games including all 3 in the league this season and we came up against a Preston side still enjoying a new manager bounce. It is also my view that the Stoke match was inconsequential in terms of our promotion...
