Ref Watch
The referee for this game is Keith Stroud who has already been an official at one game this season, at Coventry in Birmingham. That game ended 1-1. Last season Stroud was the official at the Liberty when Leeds won 1-0 and at WBA where the swans also lost. The other game he managed last season was home to Reading, the final score was 1-1.
What is a smog / smoggie / smoggy ?
This is a Boro term given to them whenever that happened. Probably when they had steelworks and jobs. It probably happened in the past, and was considered an offensive term until Steve Gibson took over the club and wouldn’t sign a manager unless his name was Brian. Most people who live in Middlesbrough are called Brian. Like Clough but not as talented. Boro folk have their own vocabulary which is called a name.
You too can speak smog
Saying “like” after everything
Every word ending in 'ter' being replaced with an 'a' — butter, matter, batter etc
"Ee-ya mate" Means Ee-ya mate, can ya go in the shop for us?
Tickle my bum ya get. Means I’m a bit fruity but I’m still hard.
"Yerjokinarnyer?" - The response when answering the point above.
"Nithered" - I’m a tad cold.
"Giz a croggy" Can ya Giz a croggy over the border mate? Me bike's been nicked.
Can you please let me ride on the handlebars of your bike while you pedal to the other side of town friend? My bike has been stolen.
A lot of things get stolen in the Boro of smog, like Townhill or Prestonpans.
Boro fans like to be a bit tasty, not like a food taster but like a pretty difficult to fight sort of man ( and woman) due to the fact they are hard as a hard thing. Biffa Bacons ma wasn’t from Middlesbrough, so she would have probably beaten them all up.
Top 5 Boro facts
1. Sex was banned in Middlesbrough in 1964.
2. Most people go to Newcastle for sex due to the fact it’s in Sunderland. Anyone who has been to the big market will vouch for this. Or cattle market as smoggies refer to it.
3. Boro has five sex shops that sell everything from aubergines to flaky cheese.
4. A flaky bellend is what most men have in Middlesbrough. Nobody knows why but rumour and speculation will tell you it’s because of the cheese.
5. The oldest person to have sex in Middlesbrough was Dorothy Twerp who saddled fifteen men in Redcar last Sunday. She is 99.

And there’s a game too ...
Match facts
1. Middlesbrough have lost six of their last nine matches against Swansea in all competitions (W1 D2).
2. Swansea have won their last three league matches against Middlesbrough, their best winning run against them.
3. Neil Warnock has won six of his nine home Football League matches against Swansea City (D2 L1), winning with Scarborough, Notts County, Huddersfield, Crystal Palace and QPR.
4. Swansea’s Andre Ayew has been directly involved in four goals in two league appearances against Middlesbrough (3 goals, 1 assist).
5. Middlesbrough have won four of their seven home games in the Championship this season (D2 L1), only two fewer than the Teesiders managed under Jonathan Woodgate through the majority of last season (6 wins in 20 games).

He plays up to the East Stand and knows how to brown nose supporters via his media interviews.
That buys a lot of goodwill at this club. Just look at the status the likes of Van Zweeden and Jenkins accumulated doing just that. |
I despair dwight ,really I do.Im watching the same game.The deflection was not that massive for him to be beaten like that. Consider his decent save then followed up by horrendous handling faux pas which should have seen us go 2 down.
Striker and keeper is where we are weak |  |

Comedy of errors so far, everything we do seems to turn to dust. Way too many free kicks. Losing the ball down the right cheaply for their goal (spectacular reverse pass from their player to be fair).
Smith is our weakest link. Not showing enough, esp throwins early doors. Unable to boss the middle.
They are playing high lines across the park - and pressing us deep. Which is more reason to wrest control of the middle to turn that tide.
Get the 1st team out. Grimes for Smith. We also need Bidwell - Manning's done ok but not enough (compared with Bidwell which is a tough ask).

Playing hoofball will suit Boro and with the ref buying their antics I can’t see us getting anything.
Taken off the wrong defender |  |

Wrong defender taken off.
And Grimes for Fulton has been emptied the midfield.

Now we’ve seen Gyokeres.
If Lowe had performed like he has there would be blood on moon. | | | |

That was kind of Woodman to not even attempt to save the shot. It was about half a yard to his right when it went past him. |  |

Yeh bizarre goalkeeping, Whatmore should & does score but keeper just fell backwards rather than trying to spread himself - almost like a training reaction. | | | |

Pricked out balloon tonight. We have a lot of journeymen and not too much quality. Hope somebody will surprise me with a goal, but I can't seen one coming. | | | |

I cant see why he needed to take a drink immediately afterwards either.He s not exactly broken sweat. Utterly appalling and indefensible,rather like our recruitment team's efforts. | |

It highlights just how poor he is.
We've all watched enough one on ones to know that goalkeepers are told to rush out, minimise the angles available to the striker and spread yourself when he shoots.
Woodman quite literally backpedaled into his own goal and didn't even bother to put an arm out. It was as if he was scared of being hit by the ball. | |
