Atrocious passing, same crap over and over.
It's only a matter of time before it's punished.

Fouled again in the corner and we get nothing from this stooge.
They really are blatant sometimes with the types of fouls they call

That was the chance to take all three points, Byers had to get it on target!!!

Byers... honestly fk me they're all garbage now

5 mins of Ferguson time for 12 Man Middlesbrough

Bakinson can't even keep control of the ball it's that bad

Let's pin ourselves back in our own area to burn the clock out and hope for the best lol

Couldn't control the ball again... unacceptable

What was that square ball????
Just clear it. Now it's a fking the edge of the box.
I just can't process this garbage.

That was a fking disgraceful display

Very disappointing. If we can't beat bottom club at home, who can we beat?

Fair result in the end.

We were better first half, Boro better in the 2nd half

**St Charles Owl** · 19-09-2023, 23:01

Much better in the last 15 mins, just lost our way for the first 30 mins of that half. Fair result in the end and you can see the lack of confidence both teams had a times. Neither team had a clinical forward to get the winner.

Definitely some positives from that one - Valentin should stay in the team, Mussaba looked ok at times and Gregory should be in there before Fletcher. Defensively we look ok most of the time but the midfield went missing at the start of the second half and they also stopped Valentin from getting forward. We did seem more able and wiling to get the ball out wide and put crosses in, we need to continue to do that.

We should have had our own free kick before that our defender was being dragged back by his arm when he was tying to break out with the ball. The officials are as bad as ever.

Irrespective of results it would be nice to have settled players all in their correct positions to give everyone a chance of knowing who is going to do what. Also at the moment when we lose the ball we seem to set up in a defensive shape of dustbins with no fluidity and then the other team passes around the bins using their movement off the ball. It’s hard to believe they are professional players.

We saw this last season at times as well. Our midfield goes missing for chunks of the game, sometimes they mark Bannan out of the game, other times we end up chasing shadows but we seem to run around in midfield like headless chickens. Bakinson for all his faults was the only one making runs from midfield and creating space and we could have stolen that at the end. Buckley needs to get fit, he needs to last 90 mins like Bannan always does, then build around those two.

No Windass for me going forward, impact sub only. No Paterson either for the same reason, leave him as a sub. Defence is ok, no need to change it. Delgardo looks better going forward but is a lazy defender, no worse and no better than Johnson in reality. Shame we lost Mo Diaby, he would help improve the midfield.

Attendance was 22,975, so looks like Pei is closest on that one.
