Parky has tried to match them up and go 5-4-1 which is how they have been playing. Unfortunately, Pulis has switched to 4-4-2 or 4-2-3-1 for this game. Hope I'm wrong but looks like advantage Pulis...

Nobody can defend that team tonight. It’s awful. Four centre miss three centre halves two full backs and Josh Magennis!! Is that Everton lad on one of the deals whereby he plays and we don’t pay?
If I had paid to go I would be fuming - it’s middlesbrough not Milan!

Nobody would defend that selection. But all managers however good have brain farts. I think he’s trying to get players in with character but it’s gone too far.officer_dibble wrote: ↑Wed Sep 19, 2018 7:28 pmNobody can defend that team tonight. It’s awful.

My Google feed is saying our manager is Jimmy Phillips. Presumably this is a cockup or has a very important announcement somehow passed me by?

We're apparently playing in our third choice blue strip? Teams are out a nd ready to roll in what's described by micman as a "night club atmosphere" whatever that means. Ah well, let's roll it. COME ON YOU WHITES...ER BLUES?

Mic man not surprised at the formation...really? But hey, lets get cracking. Free kick to start. The homers sally at us and...Downing got a cross in already and Grounds collides with a goal post. Corner them, Downing and...Ben grabs it. Vela can't control and the homers come again. Grounds beaten easily? then we have a throw. All attack from them and wallop from us to start. Hobbs gets involved and we have a bit of a passing session and....mic lads have a chat about ....and the homers come again via Ayala? They come, Downing again and....Okovsky does well. Magennis gets on the wrong side of the ref and they get a free kick.

Re: Heading to the Riverside for Pulisball. Middlesbrough (a) 19/9/18 745pm
So, Houghton and....it's over the bar for a wallop. Ben and.....some chat about this and that, then......a throw to them...no, a free kick. And....they set off again. Tell you what lads, lets try an attack and frighten em. No points lost for losing, only for winning. Free kick us and....a chat, then....a Beever wallop and.....ref gives them another free kick. And....they come. Chances of anything coming from Bolton, are a million to one he said, and he's probably right, but...tha never knows lad.

Re: Heading to the Riverside for Pulisball. Middlesbrough (a) 19/9/18 745pm
Back it comes to us, Ben clears, they gather and visit. Downing can't get that one and.....back with Ben. Back they come again and.....ref ignores a foul claim on Magennis and...mic lads chat then...we send one in and...that ends in another free kick to them. P.P not happy at that. O sent a good cross in and Beevers got nailed for the free kick. Mic man mithers about twitter stuff and all sorts of thing but the game. They come forth and....it gets fired out for a throw us. Mic man talks of us pressing high up the field....right. Anyway, it's still goalless and they try another sally. Downing comes, Clayton, ....and Beevers slides in and clears. Back they come..

Can somebody please teach J.Grounds the basic principles of defending.

All sounding like the homers intend to test us and we seem alright so far. Ref gives the homers a throw that mic man reckoned should be for us. And....too much chat so far and not enough commenting. They come again, ref helped (apparently). Ben collects from a left wing cross. Took Benn to deal with that one. Friend sallies, Saville, Flint.....Ayala, Howson, O'Neil does well and Grounds clears badly. Williams steps in and cleans it up. A penatly buy doesn't fool the ref and...they get a corner. Headed clear, Downing forces a back header that Ben has to deal with. Magennis, Hobbs, Beevers, O'Neil and....a throw to them. Ayala cross and O'Neil clears well but for a corner. And.....in and Ayala....we clear and...get a free kick in our own box. Ref has a word with.....somebody, mic lads chat, then back they come. Howson, CVlayton, Friend, Downing....and Wheats has to block for a another corner....and....headed clear....Friend again, Downing crosses and...Howson hits a long ranger over the bar.

Williams and some chat, then they come again and get a throw. Hope it isn't quite as one-sided as it seems. O'Neil sallies, challenges and...ref gives them a free kick. Not UEFA cup standard just yet. Shotton? send a poor shot in. Friend comes again and....somebody is down injured. Hobbs and....has a cut eye...? Mic man still insisting Beevers should have been penalised in that penalty shout earlier. .....Annick recieves the ball and Wilson is stripped on the ideline. Friend again, they come forth and Vela makes a blooper of a pass. We get a free kick. Magennis, Ayala clears for a htrow and Wilson has replaced Hobbs.

Grounds throw is cleared and the homers get a throw. Q.P.R go one up.....and...a long one, Braithwaite, Downing and.....Wheats blocks then.....Saville nips in and scores after Beevers hits one of ours. 1-0 them.

What a fecking mistake that was.
Gary O'neil what the feck?
We've conceded 3 goals in two games now from individual errors.
That pass back into defence was utterly ridiculous.

A Comic Kuts, Keystone Cops moment and we go behind to a nonsense cock up.

Still we don’t deserve anything less. We surely can’t put a side out like that and get anything, not even against a pulis team.
Re: Heading to the Riverside for Pulisball. Middlesbrough (a) 19/9/18 745pm
It just feels to me game over...Parky has already made a sub, he can't really change his gameplan...I feel as though he's shown the white flag at this before we started the match....damn I don't want to feel like this!

Re: Heading to the Riverside for Pulisball. Middlesbrough (a) 19/9/18 745pm
Base camp and facing uphill again for the Supers. Back they come again and....Ben has to save. Are we going to take it to em lads? How gut aching is that. They come forth again.....and they are fancying they can walk all over us...come on lads, too often in these situations where the opposition don't score classy goals, we give away soft ones. O dashes forth and almost finds Magennis, then Braithwaite has a lash from 25 that shaves the side netting. We go hunting...well at least for a throw...and...liner gives offside against Magennis. Hobbs injury cuts down our sub options for change. Then we crawl forth and Williams gives a bad pass away. Half time looms.

Get Donaldson on. Admit you have failed. At least it might look like a 352.

Has Vela actually touched the ball yet - atrocious, embarrassing team selection & tactics from Parkinson
We are almost defeated before we start with these tactics, we just sit back & invite pressure, almost HT no shots on goal, no shots on target
