Randomly, the girl from Andor was in Farsley and surrounding areas shooting a movie over the last couple of weeks

Devastated to hear the news of Matt Cutler's passing.

The nicest, sharpest, most engaging guy you could hope to meet and a touchpoint in my career across many years. He'll be deeply missed by everyone who knew him.

RIP Matt.

Didn't see Luke Ayling last night then?

Boro struggle to break down park-the-bus merchants like Oxford at the weekend, but otherwise are genuinely good.

Helps if Riley McGree is in the team, he makes everyone around him better.

If you enjoyed this documentary, you may like the panel session we did at the Hudl Pro Insights Conference with some of the key staff from that time:

A frustrating afternoon and a missed opportunity given results elsewhere. Tuesday against Leicester feels massive now.

Hijack season 1 was really good.

Hijack season 2 is really bad.

That Whittaker header was a big moment, in hindsight

I think that we'd weathered the storm and played ourselves out of the bad first half.

I genuinely believe if we'd not conceded that ridiculous second we'd have won - to me they looked cooked in the first ten minutes of the second half and were hunkering down to protect the 1-0.

A bit of before and after Hellberg style cues for your pre-big-match Boro content consumption (cc @borobreakdown.bsky.social )

Micah Hamilton - an object lesson in not taking your opportunity when it was presented to you

Contrast that with Alex Gilbert or Sammy Silveira

A long way to go and we've thrown away two goals leads before, but that was a proper first half performance from Boro. Every player absolutely at it.

I thought there wasn't much football news at the minute but I was wrong because Wayne Rooney has said something on his podcast again

Aren't you assuming (a bit) that people who do parlays don't realise they're a fools errand?

They've always just struck me a 'bit of fun' sort of bet - stick a quid on these 12 things and if they come off I'll win Β£700 or whatever. Maybe I'm wrong but I don't know if people take them 'seriously'

Those 'saved you a click' people in Facebook comment threads think they're genuine heroes don't they
