Me and @Chris_BoroUTB sat down with Yusuf where he revealed lots of exclusives he’s never revealed on a podcast before including: 🔴 How he became a Boro fan 🔴 His CRAZY matchday routines 🔴 How he funds his travels 🔴 AND MORE! Check it out 😊 youtu.be/sQEmVIdB1o4?si… #Boro

Year after year we’re seeing sides come to Boro, and celebrate their way to promotion. Teams who’ve been behind us and overtaken us. Sunderland, Coventry, Millwall (?) I hope we’re not going round in the same cycle like we did under MC, here’s hoping this has a better ending.

If we somehow get over the line, top 2 or playoffs, the job he’ll have done will be INCREDIBLE. But it’s looking like naff squad building once again is gunna cost us. Give him a good enough squad, the futures bright. But will we?

Remember saying post Oxford, Boro have 13/14 top players, but overall a pretty average squad. The drop off when big players are missing still remains way too big. Was it unrealistic to expect the same 13/14 players to continue at the level avoiding injuries and losses in form?

@sarahfinn8 Credit to you Sarah, I dunno how you do it.

Gosh in 48 hrs time we will be waking up to make the longest journey of the season to Swansea. Feels like for the first time all season I’m not looking forward to going to a game. 48 hrs to shake this feeling 🙏 Bloody football eh! 😭 #UTB

@Chris_BoroUTB You compare our squad building to Coventrys and even Millwall who have far less resources and it looks pretty damning doesn’t it. Hellberg sending a clear message to the hierarchy about the bench and how many members of the squad he doesn’t rate. ANOTHER summer overhaul incoming

Kante £2.5m Hansen £3m Sene £1.5m £7m in summer signings effectively written off as the manager clearly doesn’t rate any of them given their minutes. Chuck in the £3m commitment to buy Sarmiento (which I hope we can get out of) and that’s £10m, while this is our bench.

18/19 - Couldn’t recover after losing lost 6 in a row, finished 7th under TP 21/22 - 5 without a win, won a few, then lost 4-1 to PNE on final day 22/23 - Won 2 of last 10 24/25 - Won 1 of last 6 25/26 - Currently won 2 of last 9 What is it about this time of year?

@DomShawEcho He finds a way of getting the better of us every time Dom. like the manager version of Bristol City and Coventry

🦁Alex Neil: ✍️ Pinpoints 'simple fact' when asked about #Boro decision to sell Coburn last summer 😯 Malanda surprise 🗣️ 'Middlesbrough are really good. They're a really, really good side' 🧠 Detailed tactical explanation of what changed in second half thenorthernecho.co.uk/sport/25995212…

@WWE @PatMcAfeeShow @CodyRhodes @RandyOrton They really haven’t a clue what they’re doing do they. They were better off not doing a mystery phone caller thing full stop than whatever this is?!!! They’ve somehow managed to ruin one of the few hot feuds going into mania 2 weeks out. They cant be a serious company.

WHAT THE?! @PatMcAfeeShow just attacked @CodyRhodes 😱 @RandyOrton

@_Deez_Games So did I mate, but we've absolutely fucked it. Last 5 home games should have all been wins, our finishing has been horrible. No one else to blame but ourselves, we look done.

@mar_boro14 I was hoping it'd be the two of us taking automatics, but Boro are unrecognisable at the minute

30,000 fans gave the team absolutely everything. No excuses to lose that game from where we were at HT. Credit to Millwall, they’re now the favourites for me. It’ll take some turnaround in form for Boro to get top 2 now. We can’t hack the pressure. Chucked it.

@_Deez_Games Well I don’t believe we did FWIW mate, any who did look reeeeeal stupid now

@mar_boro14 "You won the league when we bottled it though?" Quite obviously about your team, not you as an individual.

@_Deez_Games I mean you replied to my post, if there were any Boro fans gloating back when we were top feel free to mock them, they should have known better!

@mar_boro14 Did I say it was you specifically?

@_Deez_Games I don’t remember saying that?

@mar_boro14 You won the league when we bottled it though?

@Chris_BoroUTB @blainalllinson This is THE tweet. It happened under Carrick when we fell away from the playoffs. Just extreme copium. “We’re only 1 point behind”, but the context is so different. It’ll soon turn to “we’re only two points”, then 3, then 4.

@blainalllinson The same people last season: “Shut up we’re 4th” “Shut up we’re 5th” “Shut up we’re 6th” “Shut up we’re only one point off” “Shut up we’re only two points off” “Shut up we’re only three points off” “We only need to win the last 4 games” “WE GO AGAIN” A special kind of stupid.

I see the “shut up we’re still second crew” have rebranded as the “we’re only a point behind crew” Some people couldn’t see a fist if it punched them in the face

@Jordwalker19 Me too mate. Tried so hard to remain hopeful of top 2 throughout this whole poor run, but today felt like the killer blow. I’ve kinda came to terms with it tbh, I’m contempt with it being playoffs now, and we just try to go in wit the best form we can

@mar_boro14 I’ll take hull tbh anyone else worries me, 32 shot and 19 blocked today proves we are play offs I’ve lost all hope today mate I’m so deflated

It’s play offs isn’t it

@Jebbo37 @ChatwithChaps89 @secondtierpod @ThatMillwallPod @TheMillwallFans @TheFLZone @_The72 @Topliss94 Great chatting and meeting with you once again mate, but you’re barred from ever coming up here again 😂

CHAOS ERUPTS After Millwall WIN Vs Middlesbrough! Was great to get @ChatwithChaps89 & @mar_boro14 on for this huge game as well! 👇 youtu.be/c9bNTOMnWjo #boro #UTB #Millwall

@danamalt I fear that’s gunna be the story of the season. So many highs and great football, and it’ll all be one giant footnote
