People were critical when he was poor and making mistakes. Including me. It was nothing personal and I want him to do well. I’m a Boro fan. Why would I want him making mistakes? I have no desire to be proven right. It was just my opinion.Since spurs the lad hasn't looked back. He's been very good and it's obvious he's in a confident mood at the moment, if he carries on like this there will be a lot of people with egg on their dishes.
Hello Fur, I do love a good egg but I'm right behind Mr Lumley. Wouldn't be surprised if Barca are taking a look given their track record.Including you.
Oh and please point out where I have hammered Lumley?Including you.

Again please point out where I've hammered him? He made a few first half errors and was indeed pish but I'm right behind him, balogun and connolly and my posting history will show. I'm talking constant berating fur.Post in thread '* The unofficial "official" Boro v West Brom Match-day Thread and Programme *' https://fmttmboro.com/index.php?thr...ch-day-thread-and-programme.28860/post-662889

Exactly this, me thinks someones on a tripPeople were critical when he was poor and making mistakes. Including me. It was nothing personal and I want him to do well. I’m a Boro fan. Why would I want him making mistakes? I have no desire to be proven right. It was just my opinion.
I hope he continues to improve.
It doesn’t mean I was wrong at the time.
Well said. The board is pathetic at times for threads like this one. Lumley was an absolute car crash for a good few weeks and people were well within their rights to point it out. Even Wilder said he had criticised him and told him he needed to improve. Yes you get the odd idiot who appear to enjoy peppering the “boo boy”, but 99% of those who criticised his performances would be delighted to see him turn it around.People were critical when he was poor and making mistakes.

No fishing Col, Lumley has been the subject of a lot of hammerings on here.Exactly this, me thinks someones on a trip

Yes after the first half against West brom but that wasn't just directed at Lumley it was balogun and connolly aswell who I've also defended and think they are good players. All 3 have been slagged off pretty hard on here which does nobody any good.And as has already been pointed out he was rightly criticised, what was the word you used, pish . Wilder stated he was openly criticised within the changing room by the squad too. I am chuffed he has had some good games, he needs to be consistent. I said today he was the main reason we came away with a point today.
I guess you're another with egg on your face....I posted on another thread that he has had another good match and long may that continue. He was poor, very poor earlier, but credit where it is due he has improved his performances considerably.
A few boilers never hurt anybodyI guess you're another with egg on your face....
100% hopefully he's our number 1 nect season aswellI’ve backed him all season. Had a couple dodgy moments but what keeper at this level doesn’t? He’s transitioned from a keeper playing under Warnock hoofing it long all the time to playing out from the back with Wilder, there was always going to be a hiccup or two along the way.
