Primary objective: •Win Secondary objectives: •Exercise the demon of Drogba from 2004. •Fold Greenwood like a deck chair, take a red card if necessary (Joelinton, I'm looking at you). •Everybody get home safe, that includes you Adam, put away the camera and get back to your hotel!

Tooners? Username ToonMonkey123? Joined last month and every post relates to Boro? Nah, you can't go in two footed like that, you're making it too obvious. What is your purpose here? Are you on a mission to remind the "tooners" that Boro exist? A lot of "tooners" I know, myself included, don't mind Boro at all, personally, you wouldn't even make it in my top 10 most disliked clubs.

This, this, this. 100% this! I'd rather hang out with the mad lads in the Tartan Army having a party everywhere they go while making friends with the locals than the gimps who throw plastic chairs around while singing about 10 German bombers

Absolutely buzzing for Scotland and especially the fans. I think everyone on planet earth outside of Denmark could agree than Scotland bring far more fun to a World Cup than Denmark! Hope the Scots on here enjoy their night! Donnae tan tae much Buckie!

Eugh.... Can I just shock you? I like the international break, despite what I said earlier!

Ooof, nee luck Ratty McRatface. Sweden's saviour was kind enough to grace the pitch with his presence for just the 30 mins after some guys from Wolfsburg and Celtic were preferred in attack ahead of him. I remember those who argued that we should try to keep ahold of him and reintegrate him as "it's a world cup year, he'll want to go into the tournament on the back of a good season".

Has anyone done a 'Whees Kees are theeeyse' yet?

Who's a pretty good player then?

Thread title needs to be changed to not playing for Manchester City

Well, well, well, who could've seen this coming?* *Except from everyone on N-O

Players walking off the bus with their eyes down and headphones on. Lads, make eye contact with the fans and smile/wave. It takes a nanosecond out of your day to make somebody else's.

Has there ever been a more vapid, soulless bowl of insipid gluttony than Dubai in the history of the universe?

El Elanga - Poor, he was signed to be the solution to our RW problem and we're now back to Murphy as our starter. His best attribute is his athleticism which is easily nullified by teams who sit deep who tend to be the ones we struggle against. Good player for the wrong team. He's not a write off, there's still time to improve. Ramsdale - Small sample size, but he's perfectly adequate. Thiaw - Brilliant signing, already the best defender at the club and he'll only get better. More of this kind of signing please! Ramsey - I'm cautiously optimistic about him, I think he'll fall into the 'good servant' category but nothing spectacular. Woltemade - Incredible footballer, there are times he feels like a square peg in a round hole, but it's down to the coaching staff to work the system around him to play to his strengths. Wissa - Can't be anything other than disappointing, I know he didn't choose to be injured, but the best ability is availability

The top 3 will be Arsenal, City, Chelsea in any order. That leaves two spaces for us, Man Utd, Spurs, Villa and Liverpool not to mention that there'll no doubt be a dark horse European contender (No, not them, I know who you're thinking about!) Our margin for error is virtually 0 now, I think we can forget about the CL now, it'll take an other worldly run of form coinciding with teams around us imploding to pull that off

A Sunderland fan reassuring us that we're too good to go down wasn't one of my pre-season predictions, but here we are!

Every. Single. Fucking. Time. Fair play, I'll always respect a team who never know when they're beaten and keep going until the end

Right, this nonsense needs to stop now! Be shit again Sunderland!

Kuwait vs France in 1982. I think France scored a goal to put them 4 up and the Sheik told his players to walk off and the ref then disallowed the goal when there was nothing wrong with it. https://www.foxsports.com/watch/play-5e7dcf03b000e7f

Looking forward to a MOTM displa from Gordon followed by his post game interview where he'll spin some pseudo-philosophical guff he heard on the High Performance Podcast before dropping an all time stinker against Brentford

The deal with Amazon could be enough to Kindle our transfer dealings

Blame Fak, he opened the Gates You get it? Like Bill Gates!

Microsoft Access will help give us the Edge over the other Teams

That's the only logical explanation, but even the tribes people on North Sentinal island know that we line up in a 4 3 3
