* The "Welcome Back" to the new season. Boro v WBA. Match-day Thread *

[Diego]

How the **** Is bola getting selected in front of fry only wilder knows

Sounds like it’s more only you who doesn’t know

 

[Cuthbert]

Disappointing second half. Thought we looked pretty decent first half. When Watmore missed that sitter, it was always going to cost us

 

[Glover_elbow]

Sounds like it’s more only you who doesn’t know

Bola has been awful

 

[Alzi]

Dike is an absolute unit

 

[Stocko]

WBA playing well here

 

[Alzi]

I’ll take a point here we are on the ropes

 

[Blindschool]

Giles looking a better bet than Jones this season I think.

 

[Scrug]

That was absolutely *****. That’s not a promotion winning side. Strikers needed desperately.

 

[WoodallServices]

And Crooks did cost us an undisclosed fee

They said a million on the telly, still a steal.

 

[Scrug]

He’s just not very good

This.

 

[Alzi]

That was absolutely *****. That’s not a promotion winning side. Strikers needed desperately.

Midfield was non existent second half. Crooks, Howson, McGree is no where near mobile enough for a team wanting promotion.

 

[FatCat]

To the fella behind me who was calling Mgree mustard all game long - wtaf game are you watching!?

 

[S7DiscoDown]

Decent point. Just like last year at Fulham. I'd say WBA will be well in the mix.

 

[Tomato Soup]

Decent point. More recruits urgently needed.
WBA will score alot of goals this season.

 

[Diego]

Good first half. Second half needed midfield changes, we just don’t have any options. Think it’s the right result, need bodies through the door this week.

 

[Sheriff_John_Bunnell_ret]

Should have won. Looked a bit shaky at the back.

 

[gravy173]

Says a lot we didn’t use our third sub when the midfield was dead on its feet all second half

 

[Anton_Berg]

This was how Fulham started last season. At least result-wise.

 

[Chappy112]

Good result that, I was surprised at how comfortable the first half was considering the signings they've made and our lack of signings so far.

Wilder absolute loves making subs, we now have 5 available to us and yet we only made 2, I think that tells you everything about where the squad is at the moment. I think getting a point against a promotion rival when we are at by far the weakest we will be all season then that can only be a good thing.

 

[Alzi]

Decent point. More recruits urgently needed.
WBA will score alot of goals this season.

If Dike stays fit they’ll be up there. He brushed off Lenihan like he was a small child a couple of times.
