Hello world.
Forecast for today is a surge in support for Crystal Palace across Teesside 🤣

Definitely intrigued by this fella. Looks like he's pretty clued up, tactical awareness and an identity of how he wants to play exciting football.

Best part of it though is the mention that Adi is staying on at Boro regardless of what other staff Hellberg would bring in.

🚨 Kim Hellberg is in pole position to be #Boro's next head coach. Deal not yet finalised but growing expectation the 37-year-old will replace Rob Edwards at the Riverside.

Adi Viveash still expected to be be in charge at Oxford on Saturday

I love (and 110% believe) the unconfirmed rumour that Steve Gibson has billed Rob Edwards for ~4 months of room & meals at Rockliffe Hall, whilst he was here.

I'd like to think hotel staff have thrown away his loafers and teeth whitening stuff from his room too.

Never fuck with Gibbo.

Boro getting paid compensation for Edwards is better than sacking & paying him off. He thinks he's ambitious moving to PL, but it's more delusion - he'll be EFL or sacked by May.

Get shot. Bank the cash for Jan. Keep the rest of the coaching team. No individual is bigger than the club.

If Edwards is out the door, it'll be his reputation completely it tatters. He won't save Wolves, not even Pep would.

Throwing away his opportunity at redemption from double relegations under supportive & stable owner, fan base that has bought into his "togetherness" talk & backed him.

Referee is letting some decisions fly here, that even the most lenient judge would cast a custodial sentence for.

With McGree and Nypan on, I feel we're closer to an ideal starting 11. Strelec had looked sharp in places. Looking much brighter since they came on, for sure

Wrexham were obvs due one on the "bounce back" episodes in their next series. 3-1 up to Cov, insane turnaround.

Now, if #Boro can beat Watford 16-0 tomorrow, we're back to the top of the league 🤣

I do very much approve of how BBC can post match highlights on the website so soon after games now.

Saves any chance of accidentally having to suffer through Wayne Rooney "expert" insight whilst watching the full MOTD.

Morgan Whittaker = goal machine.

Hope we use this game to make up some goal difference back on Coventry.

Awesome performance, especially Hackney, buzzing for Whittaker and great shift from Burgzorg.

Sol Brynn too. With the football gods always watching, you never want to make a positive comment about a 'keeper mid-game, was excellent & vital penalty save!

Top of the league, once again 😎

Great team goal that, buzzing Whittaker is off the mark. Involved at the start and a solid finish!

Walking the dog & got chatting to a lovely elderly couple who'd got 2 beautiful black labrador pups, to help keep them active.

They proudly told me the dogs were called #Bonnie & #Blue.

I didn't have the heart to tell them, but I reckon the guy knew the origins of the names he picked 😂

Surely, if you own a football club you bring new managers in on a contract that has a probation period? Where when they do a shit job, you can get rid without worry.

You know... Like in, the real world with regular jobs for us plebs?!

Not quite Carrickball, but #Boro were poor today. Defence probably the main difference between today and last season though. We were poor in getting out of midfield & into attack - nothing seemed to work or come off. Rest up, reset & figure out best attacking lineup during this international break

The worst part is that this shameless grifter will KEEP her House of Lords honours, the salary, expenses entitlement and have input and say on the future laws and governance of this country, despite having thieved £122M from its tax payers.

Scum.

bsky.app/profile/paro...
Michelle Mone profiteered from dodgy PPE during a national crisis, threatened to sue anyone who said she was involved, hid £29m in an offshore trust then put the company into administration when ordered to repay £122m. Who thinks she should either pay it back or go to prison?

✅ Still unbeaten.

✅ Still top of the league.

✅ Clean sheet.

⚖️ Can't win, don't lose.

🤣 Chris Wilder got beaten again.

Stoke were decent mind, some great players, but I feel some tired legs in our midfield gave them much more opportunity to play than what they should have had.
