Not so much a member of the Twitterati as a dedicated Follower of Boro, who needs to join this circus to replace a season ticket in AV's Virtual BJ Stand.
@ScottyGB77@untypicalboro Hull has a decent team and one with more than a bit of Boro in its bloodstream: Matt Crooks (what a role model as a player & human being), Ryan Giles and Paddy McNair. Hull & Boro are like family. Good to see a Yorkshire coastal team in the EPL (though I wish it had been Boro!).
@TheBarmyArmy All the (recent) replies are clearly by youngsters. How about a successful Captain who changed the face of cricket (also pointing to the cut-throat cricket we see now) - Douglas Jardine anyone?
@danamalt If you blogged or texted that Southampton has been unfairly vilified and that no advantage was gained, you'd have got none of that. Take it that they don't like the message, not that they don't like you, or women generally. But perhaps I am being generous to So'ton fans.
@danamalt@AdamCrafton_ Leeds were fined £200K - that was BEFORE the rules were changed specifically to ban spying, so that makes this incident more serious. If the price of being caught is £200K (even £2M) but the prize of getting to the Premier League is £150M or more, people will decide it's worth it
Yesterday, Taylor Harwood-Bellis mocked Luke Ayling for his stammer.
Here’s a video of Ayling discussing what it’s like to live with a stammer and his journey.
Anyone who mocks him after watching a video like this should hang their head in shame.
@JonathanDoidge : This is NOT what the batting doctor ordered! I am not a betting man & I accept you can never really know without having seen both teams batting, but this is looking like a Somerset win within 3 days. This will be a year with few Yorkshire batting bonus points.
@Doidge1Jonathan Looks like being a long season for Yorkshire supporters. But let's hope Hill (a decent all-round player) can dig in. Disappointed at Duke being caught on the boundary.
@Gerashchenko_en@grok I have the time and inclination to read your longer posts and I am happy with their length. But if you want to listen to Grok, how about mixing it up? Some longer, some shorter... Keep everybody happy!
@BoroHistory For the reasons above I'd place Morrison at No 3. How did we only get £1M (I think) for him when we sold him to WBA? You wouldn't get a player who'll play 375 senior games at Permier League level for ten times that amount now! And he was good (obvs).
@BoroHistory Not a bad list but I think James Morrison should be higher. 17 games for England's age-group teams, then 46 games for Scotland's full international team; 66 EPL for Boro (3 goals) & 309 in the EPL for WBA (34 goals). His career has been exclusively in the EPL & he has managed WBA
