Middlesbrough v Leeds Utd Match Thread

[YorkshireSquare]

That was a really bad tackle, got away with it because there was 51 minutes on the clock

[John in Louisiana]

This is a mental game, just found 23p, 3 wine corks & a sock behind the sofa.

Gnonto and Summerville leading the way MOTM wise

[White Riot]

Rutter crocked and no card given.

[Tyzy]

I need a lie down. And a very large beer!!

I've just had a large cream cake

[Clitheroe White]

That’s nasty on Rutter.

Cussie, make a bid with that and you'll be the proud owner of Brendan Aaronson this summer

NO SWEAT

Our mid field is so weak

Gruev has been ok but defensively Archie has been a bit off (offensively he’s been ok)

Euphemism??

Ironically, I have been really impressed with Firpo in this game. Best I have seen him play all season. Some lovely touches on the ball, couple of loose moments but really enjoyed his performance so far.

Lack of control is an issue and why we are doing this sit back stuff again when we always concede baffles me.

Nice to see Gnonto and Summerville swapping sides and the difference a midfield runner makes to an attack with Archie getting forward.

Mixed bag from most players, some good, some bad.

And that's a nasty one on Georgie tbf (he himself has cost us a goal though but earned us one, sums him up)

Just need a win

[White Riot]

That’s nasty on Rutter.

It was bad and should at least have been yellow and a strong warning.

Is it empty already?

We need to defend better as a team. They're getting so much space all over the place

[Orange Box]

What a cracking game, two sides both wanting to get forward, what a refreshing change. It’s got pace, challenges and mistakes aplenty.
Are we the better side? I don’t know, what I do know is that Gnonto was miles offside, which I love. Leicester and Ipswich fans will be fuming

Despite him being unable to prevent the goal?
