After a bit of thought, I reckon Boro should keep an interim manager in place until Farke is sacked by Leeds... then move fast. Connected to Scott, proven at Championship level; would be an effective appointment IMO. Reckon by 6th December he'll be getting his P45 #boro

Adi Viveash comes away from today with great credit, dignified, and managed to coax a win from a very emotionally charged team/stadium. Not an easy ask. I hope whoever takes the reigns keeps him involved, seems a good un. #boro

I'm excited for the match tonight, so it's guaranteed to be rubbish. But, still, it's nice to be able to look forward to games again. #boro

Thought we lacked width last night, condensed our game too much, and gave us a tough job to cover gaps when Stoke won the ball back. Understand why we played 4 at the back, but think the Christmas tree played right into their strength and size through middle. #boro

OK with the result today, think the starting 11 looked flat and Hackney didn't look the same player we've seen so far this season. Edwards saw what we all saw and changed it, that is a huge step forward from last season. Proactive changes, positive subs, made a difference. #boro

Bought a pristine 1991 Sony 5-disc CD player off eBay, just arrived today. Cost about 40 quid. I always wanted one as a kid/teen but could never afford one. I loaded it with 5 random Shine discs and switched it to shuffle... it's utter musical wonder. Screw Spotify, long live physical media.

Flags on lamposts... they don't look high quality. They're going to be tatty and horrible in about 4 weeks... who pays for them to be safely removed? Such a massive waste of money for all involved...

Sorry to see Forss leave #Boro, talented player, great touch, excellent finisher, and top workrate. But he was wasting his career waiting for a run of games, and has rarely been used in his actual position. Good luck to him, great signing for Bolton.

Any fool blithely saying they’ve now had a bit of a think about the ECHR and we should leave - is part of why we’re now stuck in the mess of Brexit, being told by the far right to hand our human rights over to them to administer.
FFS people. Have you learned nothing from the last decade of failure?

She pleaded guilty and was sentenced by a judge. Starmer had f all to do with it. She knows that; the Telegraph knows that.
Well, I suppose she could seek asylum somewhere. More seriously, the political right seems to have gone utterly mad.

As much as this flag stuff is daft, is it not better to just go with it? If every side of the political spectrum owns it does it remove the power the right wing is trying to wield? Or does it validate them? I dunno... seems like a good moment to share this song though...

Can't really find too much fault with #Boro at the minute, Doncaster showed we needed more depth and we've added some. 3 wins have been functional st times, but thats what it takes to get out of the championship sometimes. Looks like it will be a fairly open season so far.

After a solid, if unspectacular, start to summer transfer dealings the signings of Hansen and Nypan are adding some gloss. With their youth, pace, and energy i think we're not far off ready. One more 'proper' forward and I reckon we are there or thereabouts. #Boro

Napkin analysis of Boro. Two full backs in a back 3 doesn't work. That forward 3 isn't good enough in this system. Brynn is safe. Playing an inexperienced centre mid alongside a lad who can't speak English was an accident waiting to happen. Thought Hamilton looked bright (if ineffective). #Boro

While it's been unspectacular, I think Boro's summer transfer activity will end up being shrewd and effective. Adding experience to the 'potential' we've focused on in previous seasons, feels like we're trying to find balance.

Boro should have a look at that Howson lad in Leeds' U21s, reckon he'd do a job in our midfield.
