Watford last season against other top 6 team W3 D2 L5. 11 points out of 30 Or shall we go top 8? W3 D4 L7. 13 points out of 42 There are your facts.

Add to that Charlton, Forest, Leeds, Fulham, Brighton last season - like I said and some one else has just quoted we've got no balls. I hate sayin it but it's true, I don't mind losing provided we have a good go at the opposition but just lately and Friday in particular we sat off em and let them play - recipe for disaster. And still we cannot deal with teams that come at us and get in our faces and that's been the case for the last god knows how long. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

I wrote a long statistically heavy response to this. On the fourth paragraph I decided I won't bother. But know that I disagree with your viewpoint but not necessarily your conclusion.

Didn't realise 2-2 counted as a loss, we have lost twice to teams outside the top 6/7 so fail to see your first point. What does it matter what we did last season? Doesn't count for this season does it? 4 of the players that started the last 2 games were regulars last season, new team, new management team, new owner, same fans ready to moan.

We might have lost but there were freak circumstances. We looked good for large parts of the game. We also looked good for spells against Man Utd on Friday, but I'm discounting that as irrelevant to league form. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Agree entirely with burnley game.... was really happy with how we played.... best we have played in ages.... yeah manure game is just an annoying irrelevance for me and contributed to this poor spell.... apart from that, we have been terrible as everyone can surely agree... wouldn't mind as much it we were unlucky or played well and lost.... its just depressing... hopefully now the circus of manure game is out of the way we will somehow pick up.... as player for player we up there with boro as the best in the league.... shackell thorne johnson butterfield ince weimann (yes weimann) martin.... are amongst the best in the league in their position imo.

Yani P Posted February 1, 2016 Share Posted February 1, 2016 Rhodes will do fine at Boro - at the end of the day natural proven goalscorers are gold dust and Rhodes is 100% that. How will he do at the top table? Its always a gamble....They questioned Vardy at Leicester, they said it about Kane when he broke into the Spurs first team they said it about Austin in a struggling QPR side. But natural goalscorers will always find a way to score.. Whatever anyone says I believe this is a fantastic buy for Boro for a top quality goal scorer and if he was coming to us instead I would have been mightily impressed Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Wolfie20 Posted February 1, 2016 Share Posted February 1, 2016 Everyone is entitled to an opinion so it's reasonable, given recent performances by players and manager, to expect a fair bit of criticism to be flying around - I completely understand that. What really grates with me is that in many instances there's an absence of constructive comment, the attitude being one of "I'm going to slag them off, the shower of ****" and I don't count those that do it as true supporters. There seems to be an influx of relatively new posters to the forum and they are amongst the worst - where were these people in the first half of the season? You do wonder how many of them are actually Rams fans! Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Rhodes didn't ask for anything near that, and terms were actually agreed before Boro pulled the plug. They're now in for another striker who will cost them more. Whoops. another bris miss.

We were terrible for half a game, Brum at home. Leeds away slightly below par, half an eye on Boro perhaps, Boro away matched them for a very long spell, Reading poor, not terrible, didn't get beat, Man Utd massive gulf between the teams. Burnley was a freak, time to show some stones and get behind the team. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
