As much as it was a soft decision, it wasn't that moment that cost #Boro automatic promotion. No wins in last 7 games, at the business end of the season is what's done that

I hope so, and that he's not just finding his level after such a strong start! His MSL season started last February, so 15 months with a few weeks off to move country over Christmas
Was about to post exactly the same - Strelec putting an absolute shift in. Morris absolute battler. Brittain been great second half too
Absolute stunner, that one!
Beautifully against the run of play too. This is how it must have felt for our opposition over the last few games! Hopefully do it again in 96th minute ๐

Being 5th currently feels unwelcome, but probably realistic based on recent form.
Need to start winning some games ASAFP, as we do NOT want to be facing off against Wrexham on the final day, for 6th place ๐
We all know what would happen...
Yup - automatic promotion is all but gone, so this is "pre-season" for the playoffs now. So start planning, prepping and build the squad up for it. Fitness drills & strategies.
Take the squad to Wembley for a stadium tour if it helps get them ready for it & doubles up as a team bonding experience ๐
Absolutely agree. Give some of them a rest. Malanda is probably into month 15 of his season! Play some of the "kids" - Ibeh, McCabe, Cartwright etc.
It will be great to get Hackney back, but also Whittaker, Alfie Jones.... guys like Silvera, Castledine, Sene & Hansen can all make a difference ๐ค
Practical hat on, let's just focus on getting key players back from injury. Work on some confidence coaching, decision making, team bonding activities... whatever works.
Hopefully there's still gonna be some games in May that'll need winning!

They must love playing us ๐

Pretty clear that #Boro are definitely doing this promotion attempt the hardest and most difficult way possible.
We should never have expected anything less really, should we?!
Whoever that co-commentator is, always hates us ๐
I wonder if Grant Leadbitter is still on the payroll and available?
Either to put a shift in on the pitch, or to drag these lads round his for a BBQ & a "chat" to sort their priorities out.

Frustration.
A blind man could see what their 10 was waiting to happen. No need for Brynn to try and go to ground there. Guy was heading away from goal. Dreadful.
Sol Brynn playing his way back out on loan next season IMO. Far too many naive mistakes the last few weeks.
Big team talk needed from Kim. Get their heads back in it please.

Alex Bangura is clearly the one player who is listening when the squad are covering shooting during training.
Let's have some more on the board please.

He definitely has technique and close control that nobody else in the current forward line has. The touch for his (offside) chance was excellent - Boksic-like!
Hopefully he'll play and score important goals in the next 7 (or 10?) games. He should play in them all, if fit, IMO.
Does anyone know a good cigar shop and somewhere that sells champagne, that's open on Easter Sunday?!

Azaz and Nathan Wood would no doubt be prime candidates for the Footballing God's inevitability law of scoring against us. But I do think we'd beat them.
Doing that would be great, even if it's to pickup form and get back to a scoring streak ahead of the playoffs.
If the playoffs are where we finish, I doubt any other team will fancy their chances against us if we are back in form. Right now, probably a different matter though.
That was inevitable really wasn't it? Hope some of us at least earned something from the bookies for it
