Don’t understand the logic of country before club at all. We go every week to watch Boro and live and breathe it. And talk on here every day about it. Only time I’m arsed about England is at tournaments
Boro vs Luton 10th December

- Start date

Comfortably so.
England in a World Cup quarter-final is far more important to me than a standard Championship match against Luton.
That opportunity only comes around once every 4 years, often having to wait even longer.
Middlesbrough play in the Championship 46 times a season.
Whatever the result for Boro next week, we'll have another 24 matches to navigate.
I'll be going, and backing Boro as strongly as I ever do, but I'm glad it's not a choice I have to make, should England win tonight.

1973? The one that failed to even qualify for the World cup?

Be great to get back to the regular championship season, very strange not having Boro games to look forward too. Just doesn't feel the same.
Of course I want England to do well but that feeling of anticipation waiting for/watching Boro play can't be repeated watching England play, well for me anyway.
C'mon Boro and C'mon England in that order.

I really like that team too roofie. Some incredible players, just seems a bit mad to say a team who didn't even qualify for a tournament were the last ones worth watching! All about opinions though...

I'd definitely watch an England World Cup knockout game ahead of a Boro match (obviously depending on the situation e.g. run of the mill league game vs cup final/play-offs).
They only come around every 4 years and that's if we get to one.

If it is at 1500 (which looks likely) - I will have a choice of viewing but I'm ashamed to say Spain v Portugal (if they progress) will be on the big screen and Boro on the laptop.

Looks like Riley McGree back in training already!
Fair play.

Very surprised by that, wouldn't have blamed him whatsoever for taking a bit of time after the defeat.

As I said on the other thread I’m at a wedding but if I wasn’t I’d be going to the Boro match and I’d much prefer it to be at noon so I could then also watch the 3pm QF (whoever is in it). I accept that might not be fair on fans who’ve pre-booked travel (although I travel to home games myself and usually pre-book).
I don’t see why it’s so taboo on here to say you want to watch more than one football match. There are 3 very important matches on Saturday as far as I’m concerned.
EFL should have scheduled all matches at noon ages ago.
