There is so much potential for creating a decent hospitality offering. Going back 12 years plus, the great room was used every home match with a decent meal speaker, man of the match award with crowds no higher than they are now.
Surely with 12 to 16 thousand on every home game there is the...
He clearly doesn't have an annual performance assessment otherwise he would be out for gross misconduct looking at the seriously shit decisions he has made year on year which have cost the Hemmings family millions.
Never a truer word was said. Wholesale mismanagement over years allied to blatant lies coming from the voice of the owner and now silence. It hurts to see things falling apart.
I would have been happy with RWB and two strikers who can hold up the ball work off each other and take more than one chance in 20. Pretty academic really, we are both wasting out breath with this lot.
With maybe three more players, we would have the nucleus of a very good team but how many times have we seen this in the last twenty years. I really can't understand the Hemmings business model which seems intent of wasting money on players who clearly can't hack it in this league. Football at...
I cried in 1970 when the Lasher's stuffed us 3-0 with a Fred Pickering hat trick effectively relegating us to division 3 and they got promoted to division 1. I was 12 and watching the visiting fans lauding over us left scars that still remain to this day. Probably accounted for my long standing...
Under the new regime post TH, not sure if investment is a given even if we are in dire straits at the end of December. Seem more intent on balancing the books these days.
The years of financial mismanagement with Ridsdale as the chief conductor are coming to a head. While TH was alive many gross mistakes such as stupid contact extensions and failure to invest properly in youth were made on the footballing side Other issues instigated by Hemmings himself going...
Agree with this, always found Middlesbrough fans a decent lot. Remember having a good conversation with them in the pub ahead of our playoff final v Swindon. They were at Wembley for their playoff final and said we were a proper football club and wishing us luck against the southerners.
Disturbing parallel with the Walker family. Once Jack had passed, loyality to the fans and it's town goes out of the window. How much due diligence went on with the chicken farmers? Hope the Hemmings family don't go the same way. Ultimately the majority of so called owners are in it as a vanity...
Attacking wise Josh looks a shadow of the lad who first burst onto the scene. In his first season, can remember several exciting mazy runs beating defenders. Seems the desire to attack has been coached out of him.
Raw talent without application is rarely a recipe for success. There are many many examples of less talented footballers making a success of their football career though effort and practice. I wish Josh all the best but all the indications are that this won't end well.
