Phoenix Posted August 17 Share Posted August 17 I wonder if Gibson will sue Madely for disallowing that goal. £100 million, loss of income when missing the play-offs (which they would have won, obviously) by a goal difference of 1 Hector was the best, DiggerB, Dordogne-Ram and 6 others 9 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Caerphilly Ram Posted August 17 Share Posted August 17 (edited) I only managed to see 5 mins of the match which happened to be the goal, but love a hard-earned and somewhat s********* win going by the comments on here. All the sweeter for sticking it to Gibson too! Happy Saturday folks! 🐏 Edited August 17 by Caerphilly Ram Miggins and Hector was the best 1 1 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Comrade 86 Posted August 17 Share Posted August 17 A few post-match thoughts... MOTM, Josh Vickers by a mile. New keeper coming in? Sulking? Not feckin likely. Bravo Josh, that's how a player should respond. I've got all kinds of respect for that. Elder - seems the lad can defend a bit after all. I had Fozzy down to start, but I thought Callum was pretty damn decent today. Our Defense - Much, much improved and against a team who I feel certain will challenge this season, we stood firm and for the most part, left Boro taking potshots form 25 metres out. Ozoh - still struggling a little with the pace and ferocity of games. I hope folk will stay off his back and give him time, but at the same time, if Ebou is fit to play 90 then he starts for me. Boro - boy do they have some scary attacking options. Even their bench was terrifying. That's the kind of quality we face now and today we held firm enough. Boro Fans - There's only one Stevie Gibson, one Stevie Gibson... Yes and he's the runt of the litter. The rest were rightly drowned at birth. Our Fans - fookin epic Worst Team blah, feckin blah - If that's the case then I'm a Dutchman. Schmoke and a pancake anyone?

RodleyRam Posted August 17 Share Posted August 17 A very very well deserved 3 points. Hardly a vintage attacking performance but Middlesbrough will be right up there come the end of the season and will make better sides than us look shabby. The team spirit throughout the club since we went down is incredible. Great defensive shape and everyone working their bums off. Fight to the end and all that.

The shots on target stat is quite helpful here - it highlights the facts that Boro were pushed to take a lot of long shots as we were compact at the back. They didn't create many "great" chances, in my opinion but got into good areas to take a pot shot. Archied, ck-, Foxy Ram and 3 others 2 4 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Sheff Ram Posted August 17 Share Posted August 17 MASSIVE win. Not about the performance today. About getting 3 points on the board and sticking two fingers up to Gibson and all the Boro fans that were giving it large that season when we were teetering at the brink.

The Scarlet Pimpernel Posted August 17 Share Posted August 17 2 minutes ago, Andicis said: Something we do need to look at is our ball retention. When we're under pressure in a game like today, we absolutely must look after the ball better. We looked devoid of any ambition to keep the ball in the second half. We got away with it today, but it's an area that needs improvement. Once Cashin went off we reverted to long ball as Bradley isnt competent enough to recieve the ball off the keeper. Once long goal kicks started it was always backs to the wall as we 90% of the time give the ball away. Up to Cashin going off we were good and neat in posession.

Miggins Posted August 17 Share Posted August 17 I didn't give them a chance of winning today and I was sad to predict a 0 - 2 loss, but that's how I saw it this morning. Despite being the underdogs statistically, they pulled off a win which should be a huge boost to their confidence and their belief that they can survive in this league. So much effort, grit and determination shown by the team and so much support from the fans who helped the team play on another level. So much work still to be done but after that amazing display of dogged determination I'm feeling more confident that we have a team capable of staying up. COYR!!

Will give them so much confidence for the rest of the campaign. #coyr Fabulous not the word I'd use. Resilient is more appropriate in my opinion. You need to be better with the ball to be fabulous.

Hats off to him today. Have to think that games where we're under the cosh like today will suit him better than last season when we were having 70% possession against teams that were camped back in their own half. Think he'd rather be defending than seeing a lot of the ball and being asked to start attacks r_wilcockson, Sufferingfool, DiggerB and 5 others 7 1 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
