[R] Middlesbrough Match Talk and Results [R]

[Val1]

Boro have opened talks with Bolo Zenden and George Boateng over new contracts

Has Bolo made any statements as to whether he wants to be back here next year, or is he looking for a bigger stage?

Oh, and I'll bite, what's the 3 days sig reference???

He has refused to comment on next season, claiming he's focusing on this season.

3 days is until my birthday..

Boro 4-0 WBA :)

Great result, 2 goals from Nemeth, 1 for JFH and 1 from Stewy!!

Newcastle on wednesday...

[nirvaanfc]

Heard HasselBAKE stole BORO's second goal from Szilard Nemeth who would have had a hatrick!!!

Nemeth was just dropped to my www.preimerleague.com fantasy team benhc while Stewie Downing is miy captain!

[ERIMUS]

Im confident about Wednesday, Newcastle in horrible form of late and they'll lose today :D

Hopefully we'll have Parnaby back to fill in at right back and i have no worries if Brad Jones continues in goal...

Nemeth is in fine form after a great performance and JFH will have done his confidence a world of good, same with Stewy!

Looks as if I picked the wrong game the watch...:rolleyes:

My luck, eh?

Nice win - I think it looks like the game against Spurs at the Riverside will be crucial!

Geordies on Wednesday (they are 1-0 up at Man Utd - but should be tired, given their punishing schedule)

Then we have Liverpool away (ouch - maybe thoughts on CL?) then the UEFA playoff against Spurs and then we finish away to a very improved Man City under Stuart Pierce.

Its gonna be tough, but we normally raise our game when we play better opposition - all of the above like to attack and play an open game - this should suit us much better than playing defensive minded sides

[gaijin]

Oh yes, almost forgot - in unrelated news - Boro will start next season with plus 6 points.

After Sunderland's promotion back to the Premiership, it was decided that there was no point in the Mackem's even bother turning up to play us....as they are utter sh***e

So we get 6 points more next year......

:D

Great stuff.

What a great result, and at the right time too. Gosh, before this weekend Brom was the team I'd figured was most likely to stay up. So a good win.

[ERIMUS]

Newcastle lost 2-1 so thats good news for Boro :) :cool:

[ERIMUS]

Colin Cooper has a hip injury and its likely Andrew Davies will step in and Ray Parlour instead of Doriva as the only changes.

[Val1]

Happy Birthday Boro...

So what are you going to do now that you've turned 19???

Thanks!

Watch Boro qualify for Europe :)

Middlesbrough (from): Jones, Knight, Queudrue, Taylor, Riggott, Southgate, Ehiogu, Wheater, Davies, Boateng, Parlour, Zenden, Downing, Doriva, Kennedy, Johnson, Hasselbaink, Nemeth, Graham.

Riggott?? surely BBC have this wrong.

0-0.

Should have won it, had the possession and the far better chances.

Not a bad result by any stretch of the imagination. Leaves us two points clear of Spurs below us, and we have them to play at home.

After having seen Liverpool play, I can safely say they have nothing to bother us, and should be able to get a point there. A win against Spurs and then another draw away to City should do it.

Spurs have;

Villa @ home
Us @ Riverside
Blackburn@ home

Villa and City won't bother us - imo. We must hope that the Villa v Spurs match ends in a draw.

With Man City and Spurs in our final 3 fixtures, our destiny is in our hands now.

The super mod's on this site are a disgrace, a true Boro fan asks to Mod this forum and they turn me down. Utter disgrace.

A small Austrian Gerbil called Fred could mod this forum, its not a massive hotbed for Boro activity.

sara can do it. Unless we start getting more people in this forum, then you maybe it is feasible, they we get someone else in.

Extra work and you get paid diddly squat - I think you've got the good end of the bargain.

But then again, chicks dig guys with power......hmmm. I guess it's a Double edged sword mate...

[ERIMUS]

Should of reported this sooner, it was a good night in Newcastle, warm and a good atmosphere created by Boro fans. We had the chances to win it but didnt take them.

Liverpool away tomorrow, Parnaby, McMahon and Morrison are all back in training but i think its too soon for McMahon and Morrison.

Boateng and Southgate both picked up injuries at Newcastle but should be fit i think.

I expect the team to be:

Jones, Parnaby, Queudrue, Ehiogu, Southgate (Davies if injured), Parlour, Downing, Zenden, Boateng (Doriva if injured), Nemeth, Hasselbaink

[ERIMUS]

1 Chelsea 34 52 85
2 Arsenal 34 41 74
3 Man Utd 34 29 70
4 Everton 34 7 58
5 Liverpool 35 12 54
6 Bolton 35 6 54
7 Middlesbrough 35 6 50
8 Tottenham 35 3 48

A win tomorrow for Boro will leave Liverpool and Bolton sweating!!

Yep, ties aren't going to cut it. This is crunch time. Bolton's got Chelsea and Liverpool have Chelsea (in the CL) so this is the week to close the gap. But we are going to need two wins...
