BoroPhil Posted January 14, 2012 Share Posted January 14, 2012 The Jukebox is on the bench for Boro.Interesting choice in goal, we were all expecting our former goal keeper Danny Coyne to be playing. But it says Ripley on the team sheet, never heard of him.. but I just did a quick google search '18 year old Connor Ripley plays as a goalkeper for Middlesbrough in the English football league Championship, he's the son of former player Stuart Ripley.' I see that he's played for the England U'19's, is this his first start in a League game? (Former B****rd Rovers player too ) If he has any nerves, they will show with Paterson closing him down at every chance he gets. was his first start, he came on as sub once last season. at fault for the 2nd goal, let a long range shot go underneath him, though we should have closed it down better. it certainly looked like the burnley players had been told to shoot on sight. we were abysmal today, but we never recovered from the two goals (the first was excellent btw, great corner routine, we didn't have a clue what was going on). 2nd half we didn't even remotely threaten and you were happy for us to have the ball, since we never looked like doing anything with it. our best chance was to Jukebox and that was thanks to your keeper.

Benjani'sBootCleaner Posted January 14, 2012 Share Posted January 14, 2012 I hope I'm not the only fan to see West Ham and think what a horrendous football team it is. Some real good quality players there and absolutely no interest in good football or even looking like scoring. Apart from Halford nearly putting in his own net, that was the only goal mouth action at all today. So sad seeing a team spend so much and return so little. I'd rather them than us though, we never looked like breaking them down and Norris flying into tackles and Kevin Friend not being our friend didn't help us. Infact "Friend" was abysmal.

Btw your board must be thick to let a talent like Adam Matthews walk away. The lad will be in the prem with a big club in a year or two for a bumper fee. shut up you clown they went for money and no ambition what so ever, playing in a tin pot league with the occasional game in europe every season. will look back on it regretting it at the end of their careers. sacrificing the chance to play in the prem for extra £££ You think Hooper is worth £3m now? Celtic signed him from Scunthorpe for £2.4m. He'd never leave if they only get a £600k profit. if he was worth 2.4 and all he's done is score a few goals in a **** poor league my nan could score in then i dont think his price should rise by that much.

They said on the radio it look's like Eddie Howe had give the players the message to shoot on sight, and test the young keeper. Yeah they also mentioned something about the 2nd goal, I think I posted about it in the Soccer Saturday thread. That with Trippier's reaction after he scored, he looked like he didn't expect it to go in either. The guy on the radio said 'maybe I'm being harsh on the young keeper, Trippier's hit it as clean as a whistle. But I'm not expecting that to find the corner. ' What was the corner like for our goal? Was it played across the box, somebody stepped over it, let it run and Rodriguez smashed it in? We scored one like that against you last season at home when we beat you, I think 2 of our goals came from corners against you that night. Sounds like we played really well in the first half on the radio, and nothing much in the 2nd half with Boro having the better of the play... like you said, Lee Grant worrying us yet again... trying to do a clever turn on the ball.. giving the Boro player an empty goal, but he hit it over according to the radio. Great win but a a cost, Paterson injured again. He runs himself into the ground, no wonder he keeps getting injured. His hamstring apparently, could be out for 6 weeks. Shame that, because Pato has made a difference since coming back from injury. Apparently Stanislas has also done his hamstring in todays game. Did they look bad injuries on the game?

I know we have scored a goal like that before against someone. But I just double checked the match report from that game and it was against you... Rodriguez scoring that goal aswell. I bet Eddie reminded the players and Rodriguez of that corner routine before the game. It was a lovely goal when we scored it at the Turf against you, we didn't know that was coming... the Boro players looked confused as to what had just happened at the time then aswell. The first half was packed full of fluent football, tenacious tackling and persistent pressing. It had been a long time since I had witnessed Burnley play such lovely stuff. Like most of the season, chances were being created - and plenty too - but not a finish in sight. Until the 22nd minute. After pressure on the edge of Middlesbrough's box, Chris Eagles forced a clever save from Paul Smith and Danny Fox stepped up to take the resulting corner ball. Fox, hitting the ball into the penalty area hard and low, seemed to have found Eagles. However, with an intelligent move and one I've been a witness to before, Chris Eagles drew the defence with a dummy leaving Jay Rodriguez to fire home his 14th goal of the campaign . After finally finding the finish the team were pushing for, the Burnley fans only had time to seat themselves. http://www.clarets-mad.co.uk/rprt/mtch/keeping_the_dream_alive_670125/index.shtml Link to post Share on other sites More sharing options...
