[Rampage]

Legdzins makes complete arris of equalizer

[Rampage]

Archaetypal butterfingers.

[DCFCArmy]

That's the luck this lot are getting though, we don't even get blatant penalties given. 

[eddie]

That was Gary Sprake standard goalkeepng. Well done Legzdins.

[Rampage]

Rhodes the scorer by tap in

[Rampage]

What has playing well or being then better team got to do with that equalizer

I'll feel sorry for Brighton if they miss out to these other 2.. the 2 jammiest teams in the football league Burnley and Boro.

Boro have proven in cup competitions over the past two years they can beat PL clubs.

I do find their style bizarre though. It's like they enjoy being dominated and scoring goals agains the run of play. I mean, Leicester can do it becaus they've got pace on the counter, but Boro aren't exactly quick are they?

I'd hate to watch that every week.

Cup competitions are hardly a good way to prove that, just look at how Sheffield United kept having those good cup runs under Clough, but I doubt they would be able to do that in the Prem.

I'd argue Man City last season threw the match, you could tell they weren't interested at all.

Man United didn't want to be out there either lol

I understand that, but it's the way they play. They'll play the same way in the Championship and the Premier League. How do you break down a team who just sits back and defends? Defensively, they're brilliant.

West Brom get battered most weeks too. But they're from the same mould.

I reckon Boro will just turn into another West Brom under Karanka if they go up.

As for this game. Shotton is such a calamity.

 

 

[Gladys' Handbag]

I was expecting some activity from  agent Shotton, maybe Legzdins is on a retainer.

"Er.. Ryan we'd prefer Birmingham to lose this"
"OK boss, what do you want me to do?"
"Don't worry, you'll think of something"

[DCFCArmy]

Rhodes has missed two sitters in this match.. and almost c***** up the goal 

I'm sure he'll score now, another 3 yard tap in, its all he seems to do Rhodes

[eddie]

2-2, but should be 2-3. Ayala had one chalked off for offside but was about a yard onside.

[DCFCArmy]

I don't want to see them fail because of that though 

Yet again the referees and linesman getting massive decisions wrong.. might have cost them 100m 

[climbon]

Come on boro...really dont want them in the playoffs!

[CumbrianRam]

Don't see any reason why Derby should fear playing Boro at Wembley, yes they are the more likely team to win but not impossible.

Not so much fear, more considering probabilities. I think we'd be more likely to beat Brighton than the other two.

[CumbrianRam]

This Boro keeper is a mistake waiting to happen, great tackle Ayala.

[YouRams]

Great game that, love to see Boro bottle it but wouldn't fancy them in playoffs.
