M'boro predictions....

[essexred52]

Hmmm, M'boro tough to break down strong at the back hmmm, draw 0-0 1-1 something like that I'm going for,

Or we could turn em over 3 nil but I doubt it, it's a draw me thinks,

Thoughts?

[tricky1972]

Boro are a decent side, so I would take a draw, to keep some momentum coming off the game.

However, I have a feeling we may come down to earth with a bump... let's hope not.

I see we have allready got a couple of pessamists on middbro, so I amm going to be an optomist and say 3-1 forest, I give them one because we will come back from behind and get the third in the 93rd minuit.........

[Romanis]

Can I settle on 2-2, 1-3 .2-3 or 3-2?

[Romanis]

I know some will disagree and seeing some comments on social media it appears so, but I felt Boro were value for their win. Once ahead, they managed the game better although we should have really taken our chances and given them a real go in the closing stages.
Really criminal of Lansbury to take the same penalty 2 weeks running. It's not like we're 3-0 ahead to try some fancy trick. 1-2 down and chasing the game, he should have picked a corner instead of doing the down centre routine again. Even a Boro defender alerted the keeper before the kick, does Henri think people don't look at what you did the last time?
A real pity -at 2-2 and momentum, who knows what may have transpired in the end. Overall we're still missing that creative spark.

Zidazaga Not quite right mate but I admire your optimsm. I thought the trees played really well certainly did not deserve to lose Blow to lose Mills think Hobbs best days are behind him

The 2nd half we were the better side and were dreadfully unlucky, I can't fault the players at all in the 2nd half, the 1st 10 minutes we were woeful and could of been 3 nil down after 15 minutes, but did well to get back in the game straight away,

The 2nd half, brilliant spirit and passion we showed and on another day we would of well won the game, imagine if the penalty went in we would of gone on to win the game without doubt,
Can't fault the players at all, Lansbury was immense, Osborn was excellent out on the right, great game to watch loved it apart from the result.

If we keep playing like that our luck will change,

LOOK OUT DERBY.

[Romanis]

Lansbury immense? Crikey if you call a player who costs a team a share of the points immense, I shudder to think what accolade you'd give a player who causes a defeat. Dear oh dear, what's in the water in Es***?

[essexred52]

He missed a penalty! So what all players do, but his overall performance was outstanding.
I don't mind travelling all that way and watching Forest lose if they put in a performance like that, eventually Forest will win a lot more than they will lose that's for sure.

Tell you what Romanis, I think you're a stoner at times.

Yes we lost, but was we really as bad as you portray?

1. Schoolboy errors cost us. Wilson, should be shot. It's the kindest thing to do.
2. Lansbury missed a penalty, by being too *********ey ********* again. He tried exactly the same trick as he used in his last penno. Unfortunately for him, they had done their homework and the point we deserved was lost.
3. Middlesbrough are one of the best outfits in this division. Hardly an easy game.

1. Both goal keepers were superb, especially theirs. He pulled off wonder stops at times.
2. Contrary to your analysis, we ran them ragged at times. They looked knackered and resorted to yellow card city to get a result. How no one walked escaped me. The deliberate hand ball for the penalty? The guy was already on a yellow FFS.
3.W e played football on the floor again. Did you actually read the stats for the game? We romped it on chances and play.
Antonio going, could turn into a
