Going down the stats in the Championship last night looking to have a bet or 2. Came across Middlesbrough.
****ing hell.
38 goals in 34 games after a 0-0 today. 5th place.
You have to go all the way down to 19th to find a team that have scored less.
Makes Puel look like Keegan when you consider how high scoring the Championship usually is.

They've shut their opponents out something like 17 times. That's got more to do with their league position than their average of 1 goal scored per game.

That was my point really. I quite fancied them for automatic at the start of the season but although the defensive Pulisness has served them well enough they're looking at playoffs at best. Even an average goals total would have turned enough draws into wins & losses into draws to be right up there with Leeds & Norwich. Plus who the hell wants to watch that? Goals propel you out of the Championship most seasons. Also it's hard to galvanise support with turgid non-football like that. As we know all to well.

I see that Frank Lampard's Draby County lost heavily today - 4-0 down by half time. They've now lost four games in a row and have dropped out of the top six.
Shame.

Probably had a contract clause inserted stipulating that the name change has to be permanent. So they'll still be FLDC even after he's sacked.

Aye, never underestimate their propensity to snatch mediocrity from the jaws of abject failure.

Derby County did. Frank Lampard's Derby County remain unbeaten and probably about 30 points clear.

Looks like the fans are dropping out too over the turnstiles to get out!!
VIDEO: Derby fans climb over turnstiles at Villa Park when 4-0 down at half time - Fan Banter
A video has emerged in the last 24 hours appearing to show Derby County supporters climbing over the turnstiles to exit Villa Park at half time. The scoreline remained the same in the second half, leading to pressure growing on Rams boss Frank Lampard as the result became their third consecutive...

Hi boc. I know your memory isn't the best so I'll just leave this video here for you.

And the shaggers' fans didn't even wait until half-time to leave the ground. Unfortunately many of them went to the away car-park.
