Thanks for that, I'm going to spend most of the afternoon driving round the carpark trying to get better Talksport coverage and refreshing Livescore now. You bollox.

I started watching it. Then decided it was getting too tense, so I put Masterchef on and told myself I wouldn't even look at the score until it was over.
That determination lasted until about ten minutes before the scheduled end of the game, after which point I kept checking Twitter (didn't want to put the game back on TV in case it jinxed it).
Urgh. Thank GOD that's over for another day.
My sentiments entirely. I am now such a coward in these tense times that I watched some foreign drama on my iPad waiting for the time to hit 21.40. At that precise moment I switched to BBC Sport . . . . and Hallelujah!

I had to watch that whilst on a work teleconference to Toronto. I can't believe I kept it together, talking about forecasting ridership on a new train service when BRO hit the bar at the end, I think my voice cracked . My client there is married to a huge Burnley fan, so at the end of the meeting I told her the final score and we had a transatlantic cheer.

Next weekend will be the most nerve racking game since Hereford. Tonight was worse than watching Albion..

Nah. Derby have the big MO behind them, and want to keep that going into the play-offs.
Our problem is we don't now need to beat them in order to get promoted. But we also know that we've also got the big MO, and need to keep it going for just two more games, having done so for the last five. I'd feel much more confident in my Bruno get-up up in the north-east if I knew we still had the big MO and only needed a point, rather than needing to breach the Riverside drawbridge/drawerbridge.

Or won Monday and a draw is enough up there of course. It's lifted a lot of pressure off Monday that's for sure...

Boro' aint all that.
I quite fancy us up there - Whatever happens on Monday
I have to agree I've said it for many months now, I think we will beat Boro up at their place & consign them to the Play Offs. I saw absolutley nothing tonight to change my mind.

Silly old bat
I wasn't too bad watching that game tonight but suffer badly in the last 10 minutes of our games especially when there's one goal in it. I've had to visit the loo just to get away from watching.

We cannot afford to lose against Derby County.
A draw means a single goal victory at Middlesbrough is enough. A defeat means the required margin of victory creeps up.
Edit: What the feck am I talking about. They drew tonight.
I can't take it all in.
I was going to say something about a musical group.....................nahhhhhhhhh!

I was on the piss in Fontwell, missed it all. I lost all but one of my bets, and I put that bet on a loser. I lost my Boro bet, I am sooooo happy.
With £200 million at stake on Boro game it will come down to which team can handle the enormous pressure of the most important game any of the 22 players will have ever played.
The fact is, Derby Game whatever the result will only tell us whether we need to win or draw on Saturday.
