Boo, Birmingham city at home final game. deja vu

Bit of a toughie start - though Leeds' new boss may yet let us get another decent result there.

Least it's not Burnley away again hey.

Ouch! We'll either be sitting pretty and getting excited or will be calling for the managers head and looking at another woeful start to the campaigne

Yep. Dougie could be under pressure from the off. Hopefully he can figure out how to get that lazy lot ready to go from day 1 and I suspect any of them returning to training unfit can expect a good kicking.
Last chance saloon.

I do not want to hear mention of a tough start again. The season is 46 games. We won 2 drew 2 and lost 1 against our first 5 opponents last season.

To be honest, it could have been worse.

I'm not sure Brighton will be as good this season. Boro should be beatable at home

And we can def see Leeds off. Watford are a bit of an unknown away.

Whats the chances of the duke playing for boro at the macron?

Hopefully Dougie will have his side working to what he wants straight away this season. There's always one side who failed last season that surges forward the next - why not us.
