Well it looks like the Middlesbrough Boo Boys have finally had their way, Gareth Southgate has been sacked as manager of Middlesbrough.

This is absolutely ridiculous. As a Middlesbrough resident (But not a fan) I know how completely fucking fair weather the fans there are. A piss-poor 18k attendance saw them beat Derby, though it was a Tuesday game, it’s still shit.

I absolutely love Boro’s chairman Steve Gibson because he sticks by his managers and gives them time to work with. This is the first time he has ever sacked a manager and I feel he will regret the decision. For years Middlesbrough had been a poor team in the Premiership and managed to stay up simply because they didn’t change managers as often as a peadophile changes neighbourhoods.

To put it simply, Middlesbrough are 4th in the table. They are a point off the top spot. Idiotic reactionary fans, expecting more from a club that doesn’t have any money or a large enough fanbase, have destroyed one of the few  positive things about their club. Before today Middlesbrough were a beacon of hope for old-fashioned club ownership, against a backdrop of foreign owned clubs, swapping managers like they were strippers in a rap video.

Rant over.

What chu think?
