For all its uses, life was better without email. Long may this continue… people may have a lunch hour and an evening!

Up the Boro! Love it when I go through old Boro stuff - so glad I wouldn’t throw anything ‘Boro’ away as a kid #UTB

Exactly why KH picks Ayling. Not saying I agree with it, but as with Malanda, little focus on team as a defensive unit. All focus on offence, with defenders selected based on what they offer to attack. #UTB

With Jan 8x weeks away, interesting to see what @boro does given we’re gojng for promotion. If serious, need a bit extra & must be shrewd. Gard window & very important additions are fit enough/can play KH style from outset. Must not put too much emphasis on it I’m afraid #UTB

No excuses today… & we must only focus on ourselves! BUT, this season, Watford beat Saints at & drew with WHU at home. Today, Blackburn beat WHU & Preston have beaten Saints. CRAZY RESULTS. Makes today more frustrating, but equally shows what this division is about. #UTB

Bad week. MUST win that with balance of play. FRUSTRATING. Lots to work on/think about BUT, must stay positive… or may as well give up Saw reaction today (everything but score), picked up a pt, right in mix, better placed than last season & Champ results all over place #UTB

We need to ignore this drivel over coming months. Complete none stories. There will be A LOT of clubs ‘keeping their eye’ on Will Lankshear…. And many of our players. He’s in red hot form… & it’s literally a scout’s job to watch such players!
🚨 #Middlesbrough Tottenham and Newcastle United are keeping a close eye on Will Lankshear. 🔥 The 21-year-old striker has enjoyed a prolific campaign, scoring 15 goals in 16 appearances across all competitions this season. 📈 After joining Middlesbrough from Tottenham in the summer, Lankshear's impressive form has reignited Premier League interest. 🚫 However, Middlesbrough, who are pushing for promotion and have the forward under contract until 2031, are expected to resist any attempt to sign him.

Big afternoon for Strelec. Would go as far as saying it’s defining for his @Boro career. Big Dave… go show why we scouted you for two years & ability that put Rudiger on his backside! #UTB

Due to commitments, 2nd game of season I’m missing today. Let’s see a reaction & intensity back. Terrible record at Vicarage Road - a good opportunity to show that Weds was a blip & we’re built different this season. Feel good factor going into break is massive. #UTB

Let’s get a result on Saturday & go into International break top of league. Some HUGE games coming up. We all need to be together & behind this brilliant set of players. A lot more to come from this team! #UTB

A poor @boro performance doesn’t half bring some out from under their rock… some absolute guff on here tonight. I didn’t know so many had there coaching badges!?! The entitlement is laughable. #UTB

Poor in every department. Struggling for positive. Fair play to Wrexham, their approach absolutely spot on. Let’s make sure it’s a blip… one of those to draw a line under & move on from. There’ll be more of these this season. Top of league & an unbelievable start. #UTB

A stat to blow @boro fans brains. Last season we missed 62 big chances in total. This season 26 so far. Doing sums & if trajectory was to remain, we’re missing 48% more big chances 🤯. Example re: how stats can be used to paint any picture.

Starting to think what we’ve seen from Cardiff Bolton & Charlton, is what we’ll see most of season. We play high & will always be vulnerable on transition. Teams are being expansive & having a go. Allows us to play. This @boro team also smothers a low block every time. That’s why this season WILL be different. We’re unplayable. #UTB

Solid 3pts. As routine as it gets, didn’t have to get out of 1st gear. Quality the difference. Charlton not terrible, just toothless & nothing in final third. Berhalter brilliant. BEST EVER START TO A SEASON. #UTB
