Thoroughly deserved the win with the second half performance. Rare I've seen us beat a Warnock side so convincingly. They offered nothing. And that's because we never stopped running, just didn't give them a sniff. And we wore them out. Quality wasn't there today, but the desire and commitment was and once we got the first, the win was inevitable.
While we didn't have quality throughout the match, we definitely had more quality than the opposition, and you can only beat what's in front of you. You reds.
There was no panic from me It was like a league one game when teams game to disrupt - warnock is a brilliant manager and his plan was to stifle us Awful first half, a few cans of IPA, screamadelica at half time and it all worked out. It was obvious looking back on it GOING UP
Always have a chance of nicking a goal or two even when we don’t play well because we never give many chances up and them that we do normally come from our mistakes i would call us ruthless.
First half was, in my opinion only, the worst half of the season with the context of where we are right now. Stray passes, poor control from the front three (Frieser wasn't too bad actually), aimless clearances, etc. And this was with Boro putting us under zero pressure on the ball and just letting us make a mess of it. Brittain and Styles both very wasteful and Mowatt and Palmer being bypassed more than normal - although the latter impressed me a lot. Different story second half. We had our intensity back. Got the ball under control quicker, were more accurate with our balls forward, and looked a lot stronger at the back. We very much deserved that win and Boro didn't lay a glove on us in a dominant second half performance. Only one team played football and it wasn't the one that has players complaining on Twitter. TL;DR - I agree!
Was just a flippant comment about your request for a darker background! BTW was awful and I couldn’t read it
