Great night for Boro Up to second although the Hammers have a game to come. Five point gap to fourth however and nine clear in the playoffs

Not very happy about this mornings game.

Yet another where we dominated and then ended up leaving points behind

Decent crowd too! Barry Robson is a gun 6 points against Cardiff and Hull have been massive, just have to make sure we follow up against the sides lower in the league as well...

One shot on target... says it all.

Does anyone know the revenues of Championship teams?

http://www.stadiumzone.weebly.com

has almost all revenues, but are those right and recent? I expected
Sheffield Wednesday a little higher by the way.

Mark Derby down as one of our bogey teams...

And move on to Barnsley on NYE.

Pretty much yeah.

Yeah, great to get almost 28k in there. Would be nice to hit the 20k some more during the season. The way we are playing, surely that should happen?

Ali Brownlee was pretty excited when that goal went in - even more that normal. The last two wins have been huge, definitely need to take that form in against the 'lesser' teams, as you say.

another frustrating draw at home for the foxes.
concede a penalty in the 1st minute which gets saved only to concede 2 mins later.
wouldnt mind beating a team that we should every once in a while

Saints are too busy selling out their 32,000 seat stadium.

It's nice to have extended the gap between 1st and 6th to 11 points but the form of Boro is definitely a concern. The top three have cleared away a little but we're only at the halfway mark.

Last season in League One it was Brighton, Southampton and Huddersfield who were the best three teams. We managed to pip the Terriers and they went on to lose in the playoff final. That kind of thing worries me.

Despite the amazing home record, I can't shake the feeling that our time at the top is limited.

 

[sainter]

Pretty much yeah.

It's OK though, I'm sure your supporters were magnificent!

That's pretty nice. That must have been shot from right in front of my mates who sit in the back row of the North stand.

 

[camsmith]

As much as I hate your club I'm happy that you got a chance to see a derby live. They have been few and far between and if things go to plan this season, they'll continue to be!

Thanks still one more later this year although I won't be making the trip to that one!

I wonder what odds you could have got on Bristol City ending Southamptons 25 game unbeaten home streak.

Write your own ticket I would imagine.

No chance for T**ty.

 

[krisholio14]

****. It.

 

[abs_of_STEELE]

2-0 down to Coventry...FFS!

Time to bring on Buckley.

 

[Boro]

A shame we couldn't hold on for a deserved 3 points, but anyway you look at it 2011 saw us go from equal bottom to 2nd place on the CCC ladder with basically 0 investment into the side...take a bow Tony Mowbray

 

[Catman]

WTF is going on?

Grayson about to get the axe? What a weak, spineless performance.

2011: a fantastic year for CPFC!

They did the double over us!

Thank you Derby and Peterborough.

Typical 6 months for the Rams:
Win the 1st 4
Win 4 of the next 18 then beat Leeds & West Ham.

Heartening to have our best 11 on the pitch,pity it took til Boxing Day to happen.

seth

Will be interesting whether Bates finally releases some cash to spend in January.

We never seem to be willing to pay the going rate for players.

If he doesn't, I can't see Grayson lasting the next couple of weeks. Gus Poyet a chance?

 

[The_Flying_Egg]

I love it when Barnsley play Leeds the last couple of years Vaz Te is second in the goals now, don't often see a hat-trick from a guy who didn't start

January a very big month now, squad is down to something like 13 or 14 fit outfield players, Butterfield is out for a few weeks and might very well be sold And a few other players might spark a little interest, have said we'll get a few new players though. Would love a bit of consistency the rest of the season, never know whats coming, but at least we have goals which is rare
