I did, but D is next to F on the keyboard, and you can never be sure.
So it is.

It just upsets me to think about them to be honest. I can't believe it was allowed to happen. Imagine if the owners had decided to move our club to Warrington and we no longer had a team. It doesn't bear thinking about.

There seems to be a chance that both Barton and Vokes are out tonight:

Barnes proved last year that he is an adequate replacement up front, but Marney instead of Barton would be good news for 'Boro's midfielders. At the very least, because, if any of them outplay Marney, there is little chance that he will try to end their career.

At least they're certs for relegation.

It's just so ****ing stupid. MK deserve a team, they just had to start from the bottom like everyone else and it would be fine. We will never forget.

Heart wants Boro to win, but expect a draw. Burnley potentially have Barton & Vokes missing and a local derby with Preston away on Friday night. It would be great if Burnley lost both as Derby then becomes the promotion game, unlikely as I believe we will need to win at Boro on the last. If this is the scenario then I think we could do it. Prefer to look at our game tonight. One of my colleagues is a QPR season ticket holder, who thinks they will take the draw and play 1 upfront. Hoping for an early goal and better start than Fulham.
Didn't really have an issue with Burnley as until this season thought Dyche was ok. But he has been a total knob this season, nothing nice to say about anyone else. I reckon he is feeling the pressure, as they should have been out of sight with the same squad and the Brentford additions for £13m.

Barton won't be missing, it's a ruse.

He'll be practising his stamping and elbowing techniques as this very moment.

In a way I hope he won't be missing, him up against Clayton and Leadbitter is going to be pretty fiesty ..I foresee a red for someone
True. Although most of us are favouring a 'borugh win, we don't know for sure what's best. What we do know is that we'd like Burnley to lose every game after today.

I meant generally, with us all three games to play.

I would like the game of football to be the winner, which would alas mean 'Boro and us going up. The ginger dalek has not exactly covered himself in glory recently and so public opinion has dwindled somewhat.

Apart from that, excited!

I'm a bag of nerves going into our game tomorrow. How are you lot feeling?

If you read through this board today you'll see a lot of tension and anger. People are squabbling about football and about things that have nothing to do with football. There is an underlying current of spite and rancour. Users are trading smart-arse comments and jumping upon any small mistake or weakness of others, whether they be opposing fans or fellow Albion supporters.

Mind you, this could be a description of any day on NSC, so I'm guessing everyone is feeling the same as usual.

Stats show that we play less long balls than Boro. As for Dyche, he is doing what every other manager of the 92 clubs does and that's defend his own players. Fergie was a master in those situations and he knew what damage could be done by criticising his own players. He defended Keane and Scholes on many occasions and said Keane's tackle on Alf-inge håland was perfectly justified!

And another misconception is that we are a dirty team. We are bottom when it comes to yellow and red cards!

I don't expect you to mess up, so not too worried. I'll be worried when we play. I'm already assuming we'll end up in the playoffs though.

The most curious thing..
...and if Joey Barton played for us we would laud him to the skies.

That's because the refs are intimidated by the twat that is Joey Barton
