77% possession in a 1-0 defeat to Rotherham today. Sounds a lot like Brighton in the last 2 seasons, dominating the ball heavily, but not always winning.

[Football] Are Middlesbrough the Brighton of the Championship?

No. They are just pissing about now they are safe in the playoffs and can't get automatic.
Bit unfair on Huddersfield though.

Admittedly it was only watching on a moody stream but from what I saw of our game against them in the cup, the answer’s no.
I suspect Rotherham are merely shit.

Do they even have a pier ?

Yeah I fell like this is peak Potterball shades of those two crazy games we completely dominated against West Brom and Palace and unbelievably lost both.
No, but they’ve got a rusty SHIP. And smog.

Huddersfield Town lose to Sheffield United and it's down to their final match at home to Reading. Worth a watch that.

To think of those two ridiculous VAR calls didn’t go against Huddersfield in the play off final they’d probably be in the Premier League instead of fighting to avoid going down to League zone.
Huddersfield we’re definitely shafted by VAR in that one game more than we have been all season.

I went to a wedding in a Middlesbrough working men's club. There was a meat raffle and most the men turned up in Boro shirts - proper class. The bride was Roumanian and when my mate went to Bucharest once they were married, he claimed it felt like being back in Middlesbrough - pollution, crap houses, all the men hanging around in track suits holding beers and fags and all the banter was either about football or general homophobia. When he argued with his brother in law that gay men should be allowed to vote, it became the joke of the week. It was as if he'd suggested dogs should be allowed to vote.
I find that offensive

Boro were dire. Played like a team with nowt to play for.
Rov are one of the stories of the season. Ended an eight-year run of yo-yoing despite losing one of their best managers ever, having probably the worst budget in the division and their best player departing injured during the first half today.
It’s comparable to when we were staying in the Championship against the odds about 20 years ago but with a much bigger financial gap.
