Is too cheeky to ask any details on the reinforcements?

Assuming Robins gave nothing away but always worth a punt

We tried our best, wasn’t giving much away, just said we‘ll be ok

Typical ,happy to hear him doing well and having a well deserved gloat.

Never been happier to be an idiot, can see this now carrying on (although the next two of the next three games are difficult games in a difficult league).

 

[Saddlebrains]

Yeah my source was there when he told by Doug.......

Awful banter

 

[skybluericoh]

Waiting for the morons to have a go at Eccles again

There will be some moaners. My view, if sheaf goes and Eccles continues to develop the way he is I reckon he’ll be captain one day. He’s not the most gifted player, but the way he is acting when off the ball, becoming a very mature player.

It’s wild that I get banned for discussing football yet half the losers on this thread remain.

Why do you keep getting banned?

Nick hates sloths

 

[clint van damme]

My second Boosh account which lasted a few months was banned when Nick told everyone he could see from my ip address that I don’t go to games.

I posted photos at Middlesbrough away in the play off semi and then he banned me after Wembley. Not sure why.

Match Thread - Middlesbrough vs Coventry City Play off Semi final 2nd leg Match Thread - Wednesday 17th May

Drank a pint of cbd oil and did some yoga, not nervous at all. In all seriousness, some of the Boro lads at work are confident, but also nervous because I think they are generally more expectant (for good reason). I think we've had a really good season regardless so I'm pretty chill. The final...

For the record I basically go to every game as pretty much everyone on here knows.

He does seem to have some weird beef with you when at worse you are only mildly annoying, no offence!

I think it's quite funny seeing some of Boosh's post to be honest. The Warthog era of a few years ago a personal favourite

Showbiz thread was a good laugh yet Nick deleted it.

Why was it deleted?

 

[ProfessorbyGrace]

Again not too sure he just has a weird thing against me.

At least Grendel likes you.

 

[ProfessorbyGrace]

I think most of the forum does these days tbh.

I followed your adventure on the Oxford forum, it was quite funny in all fairness.

 

[Skybluecol]

It really is a tad myopic to be acting this way, after one win. In light of a very disconcerting start to the season, one that has had many fans concerned.

It was not clear, and still isn’t, if we have truly ‘turned a corner’ or not. Robins himself, post match, stated that this result has to be built upon, not seen as a stand-alone indication that a corner has been turned (paraphrased).

Not at all.....people have the right to be concerned but I was referring to the bollocks reasoning being given...... lack of effort, new staff, etc

There's one thing being concerned and another thing of having a complete meltdown which several have been prior to yesterday's game....this wasn't aimed at the masses but a good 10% on here

They can have their meltdowns, I can question them and mock....just as we all can and do

Looking forward to Boro away....draw would be a good result going into a midweek home game

 

[David O'Day]

Ok il bite

However well we did to turn that around, and seemingly in general a much better performance...

1 swallow doesn't make a summer

We did this v Oxford and Blackburn and never showed up for games after

A run of 3 wins or 4 or 5 unbeaten is a corner turned, not a last minute win v 10 men

Much better 100% but we aren't suddenly Barca

bore off

 

[clint van damme]

bore off

I am absolutely certain, and I could be wrong but you won't convince me that I am, that there are certain posters on here who are gutted with that result yesterday.

 

[Grendel]

The other guy does too, the poster that was formerly named Rich. Always dm’s me abuse lol

Rich once told me to stop criticising Thorn as it was upsetting some posters

 

[Grendel]

He was trying to flog knock off fire sticks on here at one point.

Dm’d me calling me a ‘complete nob’ not so long ago

He started this thread. Why it’s another poster now I’ve no idea.

Beth Tweedle would ya ?????

Even though she looks like she could eat an apple through a tennis racket I would

[skybluecam]

No offence mate but like I said earlier spoke to robins after the game, there’s no pleasing some fans, if we were in the the play off spots that still wouldn’t be good enough, negative comments on social media don’t help, it does get to the players, stick with him, we’ll be fine, no problem between players and coaching staff, just getting used to a different way of doing things,

If we were in the playoff spots it absolutely would be good enough, what are you smoking

 

[Grendel]

Well that’s awfully disappointing

I think he actually created tasteful poll

“seemingly in general” a much better performance

Why is it so painful for you to give credit where it’s due?

Bother going to this one - or stayed in Croatia?

Very generous in the information he gave you. Never speak unless you plan for it to get out.

 

[Brighton Sky Blue]

Spoke to robins after the game today, he’s not going anywhere, was never in doubt we’d turn it around, loves the club and the fans, few idiots put in their place today, he‘ll do for me,

Happy 53rd birthday Doug

Because i didn't see the second half

Quilt

Yes please, if you have a spare one. The dog has taken a large slash on mine, as usual.

 

[Ring Of Steel]

So in that case why did you say he’d ‘thrown the towel in’ during the second half

 

[Otis]

So why did you say he’d ‘thrown the towel in’ during the second half, what was that about

Maybe the supervisor at the Harry Potter gift shop gave Saddles a Gryffindor hand towel as a freebie, because he had spent so much in the shop.

Thrown in the towel may refer to that incident maybe.

That shop is lethal so you might be onto something

Don’t smoke if we were 6th there would still be fans complaining, hope that explains it

 

[Samo]

For clarity, I was not one of those calling for MR to go, however...
After one win by the finest of margins during which there was still some poor defending, I think it's a bit early to be calling out those who did.

Robins and players are right when they say some of the results we had were harsh. We deserved a win at QPR and we didn’t deserve to lose at PNE.

It’s small margins and I feel that we’ve had our fair share of things going against us in recent games.

It hasn’t been good enough and things still need to be addressed but the outlook is nowhere near as bad as people have been saying!

I think it just shows Robins hasn't lost the plot.

It's fine if fans want a new manager because the results are poor (say losing 6 or 7 games in a row), but I don't find it fine at all to make out that Robins is clueless and an inept manager who has suddenly become a bad manager overnight.

Robins has been getting accused of all sorts of stuff lately. Naive with tactics, picking the wrong players, the wrong formations, the wrong subs etc.

He has proved his credentials to us time and time again over the years and deserves the chance to put things right if and whenever they go wrong.

I don’t see anyone being called out for having an opinion which is backed up, it was the stupid & immature wailing from some. Robins’ job was/ is on the line, that’s clear and nobody disputes that (including Robins himself)- but the type of garbage being posted was stupid. That’s what was being called out.
