It’s a shame there’s been some problems getting on the site this weekend.
It has obviously stopped those who were so keen to post their criticisms of John Akinde’s goal scoring record only a couple of weeks ago, from expressing their delight in him scoring the winning goals in the last two games he’s played.
At least I assume that’s why we have n’t heard from them.
Any other reason would be unbelievable.
That 'Football was the loser' thread on Boro chat is top stuff.
Looks like we do away from home what every team does when they play at the Bank.That 'Football was the loser' thread on Boro chat is top stuff.

They'll be back accusing him of not pulling his weight and not being worth the money, the next game he doesn't score. It's only a matter of time.
Very amusing indeed.Bit of a sting from Mr Wasp?
Thats the norm these days! Game management.Jeez we’re defending a 1-0 lead with about 15 mins to go
As they will for Sam Slocombe the next time he get's a chance...
We were allocated 1329.Attendance 3552
City Fans 1352
How come we have 1352 when we were only allocated 1300 with no tickets sold at the ground on the day
We will see him at Everton if Vickers is not fit.Akinde has more chances to disappoint, given he's normally first choice and Sam is quite clearly third choice, but I take your point.
Every mistake is magnified as a 'keeper, but John has the additional burden of being our record signing and the expectations of him, given his track record with Barnet, are off the scale.
Given we're out of the Checkatrade, I'm not sure when we'll see Sam again, unless Grant is injured.
They may not have hit their keyboards but some were certainly at Stevenage. I was sat in Block A right down the far end and had to suffer some complete moron hurling a load of abuse at Akinde for well over 5 minutes before he was substituted. It didnt matter what was going on in the game he just got more and more abusive about him. At one point despite him being on a yellow card he was demanding he just went and took the keeper out , for no other reason than to demonstrate some fight and passion.They'll be back accusing him of not pulling his weight and not being worth the money, the next game he doesn't score.

Did he have grazed knuckles where they dragged along the ground?!.He was probably at the Chelsea game too....

It's a pity nobody turned round and challenged him as this (abuse) was both unfair and unwarranted and you could see others in the vicinity were unhappy/uncomfortable with what was being said. That said given some of the moronic things he was coming out with (such as "I'm a fan and so I'm one of the people who pays his wages") silence was probably the best course of action.
Why do we have to suffer people like this, who clearly have no idea or understanding of the game????
I accept John didn't have his 'best game' for us but he was magnificent for the first 35 mins. He made and scored the penalty and was a constant threat. The second half did largely pass him by, but there was no lack of effort and he was a huge part of a team that really had to dig deep in difficult conditions to grind out a result.
We will see him at Everton if Vickers is not fit.
We had one of these near us in Block C , not about John so much, but he didnt seem to realise the tactics we were using to protect the lead and the rubbish he was coming out with. How is it these people have such booming moaning voices, why do they bother coming.
