v Middlesbrough (a) - 16/3/24

[Andy]

Clean sheet and a point away to one of the form teams - it's a decent result.

Thought we played much better than the last couple and created some decent situations in the final third.

Expected nothing today, so pleasantly surprised that we were not dry bummed.

[tomphil]

That's a decent point in isolation, well earned.

[DE.]

Good point in isolation. Two previous games are where we fucked up, unfortunately. Will see at the end of the season how costly those dropped points are. This one is a good one. 

[Gav]

Superb result. 

VENKYS OUT - NOTHING ELSE MATTERS

[Norbert Rassragr]

Better than a loss I suppose. Sounds like we performed better too.

I can only hear Metallica when I see this…

A good point ...Also  loving the non stop  protest song almost through the second half and when the players came over ...

His major failing is he crosses the white line.

Decent point today though in isolation.

Just need a couple of wins from anywhere.

[ABBEY]

Good point all things considered.

CHANGES NOWT VENKYSCUM, PASHARSE, MAGGOT OUT

[Paul Mellelieu]

As others have said, I'm sure most of us would have taken that set of results today. but good grief, where are we going to get points next month?

You have to commit to a £15k+ a week extension of his contract before you can sell him. 

Sods law says he will when he leaves us. 

[yellowsubmarine]

one fat point and clean sheet. hope it will come in handy end of the season. most of the results went our way so overall a positive result. 

[aletheia]

Reasonable point.

Are we still a going concern?

We're going to have to scratch and claw our way over the line - although if we play like that for the rest of the season we'll be fine.

Let's hope that 6-0 battering has knocked the stuffing out of Sheff Weds.

This as well…though we were alright today…😆

[CambridgeRover]

Not a good point for me

We have the hardest run it and needed to win today

Sunderland and Bristol City are probably are only other chances for a win

If we can average a point a game from here on in, we will have 50 points which hopefully will be enough (in a normal year).

[harryhealless1928]

 Yes Herbie boy,as a metalhead myself,a really good day! The Nobbers & Ipswich  doing us proud. No I agree we shouldnt be relying on the charity of others still you take what you can get.

 A decent amount of effort all round,but Brittain & Siggy not enough lead in their pencils for me( In spite of their hairstyles).

No Northern soul for me but Nottingham is rock city. At least we dont have them to play.

     Big shout out to the ref .who  didnt add on ten minutes of Alex Ferguson time at the end. Better than the ref. against Newcastle however you slice and dice it.

And for Rovers fans: ....And Justice for All

[tomphil]

Can we please actually try and beat Sheff Weds and not wax on about how good a team they are i thought we'd left that negative speak every week behind when Mowbray left.

One of the most positive things about JDT was he didn't big up crap opposition routinely.

What about Sheff Weds at home? 

[CambridgeRover]

Yes yes forgot about sheff wed at home.

So three winable games and we need to win at least 2 out of 3. 

Five games against the top 5 and we need to get a draw or two
