Middlesborough

[Banana]

The champagne moment seems to have disappeared recently.

Obviously it was Rico's brilliant move to get a shot off that let to Toney's second.

Lock thread!

 

[Simon C]

Janelts backpass

 

[Untouchable]

Obviously it was Rico's brilliant move to get a shot off that let to Toney's second.

I was torn between that and Ivan’s chest down for Fosu in the build up for the first.

 

[YorkBee]

Colin admitting we were a top top team

 

[Simon W]

Paddy’s slip

 

[Wayne]

Jensens maradonna turn. Cherry on the top of the cake

 

[Justin Fisher]

The build up to and execution of Janelt’s goal - clinical.

 

[David Brentford]

The anticipation and execution of Jensen’s goal. I was out of my seat as soon as Paddy slipped and he was on his way. A wonderful run by Toney to his left but he resisted the temptation to pass, rounded the keeper and slipped it home. Cue absolute scenes in the living room..

 

['Ayes B]

Had to be the slip that allowed Jensen to run through.

The 'long' wait as Jensen sprinted half the length of the pitch with just the keeper to beat, knowing that no goal is easy and that it would give us a two goal cushion against a very attacking side

He must have sprinted cos nobody got close to catching him up, but he gave the impression of someone out for a country stroll. Cool personified.

Not sure it counts as a ‘moment’ but as we kicked off having conceded inside five minutes again, realising I still felt supremely confident in the teams ability to get back in the game and never crossed my mind that the game was over and we’d huff and puff to a 1-0 defeat... in previous years (even last season) that would of been my default position after conceding away from home.

 

[Wouldbee]

Jensen drag back past two players. Mustard

I think Toney and Canos where close to catching Jensen up, as I imagined Bob Mortimer saying 'They're coming at us like Barstards'

Felt the same... In fact was late buying the game on ifollow and new that we had literally just gone a goal down when I paid my tenner

 

[Idaho Bee]

Raya's save from Janelt.

 

[halibutbee64]

Picture of Colin with the rain hammering down, trousers going beserk in the wind and being
completely battered and looking thoroughly miserable

 

[Leonardo]

Raya's double save with his feet

 

[sheffbee]

For me it was that moment at the final whistle where I sank back and thought blimey we've come through all that and beat Middlesboro 4 -1 away ! ! Result of the season and possibly a season defining moment as I don't really fear us playing anyone after that

 

[teesbee]

Radio Tees commentary, once we'd hit our stride.

 

[wibs]

Only on the GPG could a 20 match unbeaten run and being favourites to get promotion mean we forget to do the champagne moment after each match!!

 

[HaylingBee74]

Radio Tees commentary, once we'd hit our stride.

I am now watching the game for a second time, an ifollow first for that. I think their excellent commentary made viewing it again more enjoyable

 

[FarnhamBee]

Purely personal one - getting into the car after the game to finish my edit - must've used a litre of diesel running the heater!

 

[Gazza Bee]

Probably Rayas save just before halftime - I think it would have been a different result if we had gone in 2-1 down and had to try and equalise for a 2nd time.

 

[8corner]

At the final whistle - 90+ minutes of howling wind, lashing rain in a grim northern outpost playing a decent team managed by arch-villain Colin. In many many years of away trips that would be all too much for our heroes. But not this lot. A seemingly comfortable win and a real feeling that "we are actually going to do this". Brentford in the PL (Promised Land). It's happening folks. It's happening.

Loads more northerners in the team these days.

 

[beetee]

Bananas VAR drawing.. After seeing that i could relax and enjoy the rest of the weekend knowing that Tariq was definitely onside ?
A very close second was TFs interview after the game. He was high on life and absolutely loving it! Wonder if hes come down yet?

 

[Mr Cynical]

Sorenson’s run from his own half into their penalty area!!

 

[Oceanbee]

So much Champagne over 20 games!!!

Seeing Jensen running from the half-way line, alone initially, seemed a long time.

All the thoughts came to me of how we used to handle these rare situations, such as will he blaze it over the bar, shoot at the goalkeeper to save it, dribble past and hit the post, take it too wide for a goal-kick, pass it to no one, fall over in the mud etc...

But cool as anything, Jensen looked across at Toney, then went the other way away from the keeper and calmly placed it into the net.

Now that sums up everything about this team!

Let alone Jensen’s double flick to go past 2 defenders in another part of the match. So very cool under pressure in both actions!

 

[Andy_Mc_is_God]

Sorenson’s run from his own half into their penalty area!!

Des Walker-esque.
It really f#cked up their man-to-man marking system ...... 'wot da we do? wot da we do?'

 

[Frothybaby]

Jensen tricks.

 

[Ashford Bees]

The "simply lovely" photocall.....plenty in the tank, what.

My champagne moment would have been the look Toney would have given Jensen if he hadn't scored. Or had passed to Canos.

 

[jlove]

Sorenson’s run from his own half into their penalty area!!

And his run and cross onto Toney's head to nod down to Janelt who placed it with his right foot...

 

[nathanbee]

After Raya's save from Janelt, the commentator asking what Raya had done to annoy Janelt so much! Quality humour.

 

[Voice from the Braemar]

The bbc tees commentary....they literally want to have our babies lol

 

[alikat]

Many of the above plus MJ's sublime ball along the line to the sprinting Rico in the 2nd half.

Could nt watch the game saturday but kept on touch at 1 0, 3 1, and then champagne moment was when I checked to see if we had held on for a win, and it was 4 1. Expected 3 3 or 3 2.

Raya's double save close thread.

 

[A Real Mysteron]

Raya's double save close thread.

which one?

 

[Isleworth_Bee]

which one?

The double one

 

[busheybee]

Loved it when their centre back slipped to allow Jensen a run on goal and he just stayed there laying on the freezing wet grass. I imagined him gasping 'what's the point.....'

I was half-expecting the ref to blow for a foul!

Have to say this was the goal i went maddest with for the 2 goal cushion
