Pulis had to go! That said, one year on - two managers later and playing football in a league against the likes of Bolton and Rotherham, Pulis still gets some stick on our board.

We played against a crap side today who should have been relegated last year in front of a sell out and lost. Boro played against a damn good Millwall side and got a credible point. Whose laughing..............

Have some not realized that we had crap players when Pulis was in charge, overated players, expectations too high, and that's why sticking plasters were applied or the bus was often parked . Or are we blaming our Tone now for average players refusing to play, or newer players coming in from the lower leagues? Two managers later, and playing the mighty Bolton and losing - many would say we are even more crap than the days of Pulis! Personally, I would rather have parked the bus against top quality teams in the Premier League and lost. than lose against sub standard teams like Bolton today in an inferior league.

I bet neutrals would put a larger bet on Boro getting promoted than our lot. The quicker Rondon, Chadli and Dawson go and get fecked the better so the atmosphere can be improved!

PS - all the fault of Big Dave though, as nobody ever blames our EXCUSE for a Board or that Chinky who may or may not show his little face for at least one game of the season!
