The EFL Thread

Terrible result for Middlesbrough. Some woeful performances. Props to Charlton, they did what they came to do. But we’ve got to be alert to those tactics and be able to break them down. Our lack of a decent centre forward continues to haunt us.
 
Just got back from the Boro match. Really disappointing, especially after Wednesday. Feels like we are bottling it. I’ve got tickets for Blackburn away next week. Feel like sacking it off at the minute.

When you've been battered by a quality outfit like Charlton, its hard to get over 🤣
 
Would have taken a draw for Rotherham against Bolton today, but annoyed to get a pint after being 2-0 up at halftime. Need to get pints on the board sharpish to avoid going down.
 
Another week and another win just thrown away the closer we get to play off spots the more we do our best to avoid getting into them.

Well it wasn't pretty but we're finally in the Top 6 for the first time this season!

I'm usually a glass half full fan but we were lucky tonight. Very fortunate we didn't have JP sent off after 60 seconds and the ref missed a clear penalty 😅

Didn’t get to see any of last nights game unfortunately due to work. But right now I’d take lucky over good, when we’ve been good we have tended to flutter it away or not take chances. Here’s hoping we can push on and maintain that top 6 🙏


Edit: just watched the highlights on YouTube, hell of a goal from Doyle and a good header under pressure from Ehibatiomhan to snatch a winner at the end. Looks like we were lucky not to be 2-0 nil as well as having a full team still on the pitch. Even more annoying is Burton isn’t far from work so could’ve gone if I wasn’t on duty. 😒

We’re doomed! Gave up at half time last night and glad I did, 5-0 away to Peterborough and now 6 points from safety.
Just read that we have sacked Hamshaw - probably a bit late but inevitable.

Relegation in our centenary year was not what most would have wanted, or expected but hopefully we can get someone in who can build a squad to get us back up the leagues.

We have just appointed Lee Clarke - ex Birmingham and Huddersfield manager. On paper looks like an experienced manager but his last job in England was in 2020 at Blyth Spartans and he then managed in Sudan and Oman, but left there in 2021! Only to the end of the season but not sure he will save us from the drop.
