What a unit John Ruddy is 😂 it’s a name I’ve not heard for quite a few years now, didn’t realise he was still about but he kept the scoreline respectable for your lot today, good luck for the rest of the season, UpTheBoro and RIP Bobby 🙏
I know. Sad that is. Yeah Ruddy’s been one of our best players in all fairness. 36 yet still keeping us in the game. Was probably at fault for the goal but can’t be blamed too much, we weren’t great all round. Good luck to you for the rest of the season too. KRO
Boro fan here. I was surprised by how poor Birmingham were but I'm certain you'll be there abouts come May. Brum fans were fantastic yesterday. On a side note the lad behind you is doing well for himself. All the best for the rest of the season
Thanks for tuning in again, Tony. And yeah, it was disappointing all round today. Expected the football we’ve been playing these past few games and we came out like how we did against Norwich. Tried to implement too much from the get go. And like you say, his interview was flat, felt like no acknowledgment towards the fans at the end of the game, hoping it improves against Hull because I was very frustrated yesterday. Still KRO over there in Canada mate 💙
Good vlog Tom, such a shame for all the travelling fans to loose ,especially those who travelled a long way to show support for Rooney for his first game! Just got to hope this is just an unsure start and that things will get better!! #KRO 💙
Did you do a vlog last season when we (Boro) won 3-1 at your place? If so I remember watching that. You seem very good at catching the goals. I think I’d miss them most of the time 😂.
Should’ve been 3 or 4 really. That Josh Coburn you’ve got clearly panicked on the last chance he had of the first half. Young lad still but football’s harsh like that. Long 400+ mile round journey yesterday, not particularly worth it for the football, but always worth it going to watch the Blues. Was funny the fight in the crowd too 😅 Good luck for the rest of the season. KRO
Probably blame Rooney for that defeat, seems a bit odd changing a settled side. Seven games unbeaten for boro and Carrick doesn't play his full strength side. Good turn out from Birmingham today.
Should’ve allowed the team to play how they’ve been doing in the last few games, tried to put his stamp on things too early. Middlesbrough played well to be fair. Should’ve taken their chances though, had a few in the first half. Defeat was perhaps fair in the end, bitter one to take though
It was rubbish football rubbish tactics bad team setup can't pass or keep the ball, can't playout from the back, Rooney has taken a winning side and made them garbage in a week.
Tried to put his style in as soon as he could, hasn’t he? And it’s not worked. Should’ve allowed the team to play how they did against West Brom and Huddersfield, then made changes. Players are simply not going to have enough time to work it out. Disappointing day
@@tommykelsall that shows how crap he is as a manager because you would think he would know that. And you would think he would know the players we have do not suit the system he wants to play.
Be patient blah blah we were patient! patient with Eustace he built a team and passion with the fans we finally starting looking decent and they do this. Shrek comes in and plays HOGAN DROPS MYOSHI AND STARTS GARDENER WOEFULL TACTICS
Strange team selection for today, I agree. Should’ve played the team how they were used to in the games previous and slowly implemented his own style over time. Didn’t really get much from him today either, expected more at the end of the game. Eustace would’ve been over applauding the fans. Disappointing first game that but I’m hopeful it’ll improve
Thank you mate. Glad you enjoyed it. And yeah, never nice losing late on but the result was probably fair in the end. Didn’t play how I thought we would, rather disappointed. Thanks for watching and good to you too. KRO 💙
Again excellent video. Just hope our hieracy know what they are doing. It wouldn't have taken much for Tom Brady to have persuaded Potter. Not basing that on yesterday's game.
Thanks for watching, Mitchell. I hope the owners have got it right too. I buy into this change in mentality, we’ve had a defeatist, losers mentality for too long now, and I thought Rooney yesterday would demonstrate that. But it wasn’t what I wanted. Graham Potter would’ve been the dream appointment but maybe just not right now, tricky being a championship side. Still glad you enjoyed the video. KRO
Couldn’t believe it when I saw Hogan in side….ok it’s Rooneys first game …he has to see what he’s got to work with….I’ve just got a horrible feeling this is going to be another Zola situation but let’s wait and see
Hello blues focas Joe here iam big fan of your video blues focas what went wrong under wayne why he did not bring scoot on I ll never bloody no was he the right appointment
Thanks Joe mate. And yeah, it was a disappointing and frustrating game yesterday. I still believe Rooney’s the right choice. I buy into this new winning mentality because we’ve been very defeatist over the last decade, let’s be honest. However he got it wrong today. Should’ve let us play how we did against Huddersfield and West Brom, not putting too much emphasis on his own style in game 1. I agree Hogan and Gardner weren’t ready to start. Like I said, should’ve stuck to what was winning. Really frustrating afternoon, wasn’t what I thought it’d be at all. Fingers crossed Hull at home on Wednesday night is better. Thanks for watching though mate. Glad you enjoy our vids, plenty more to come. KRO 💙
As a Boro fan I was shocked at how easy it was to get through your midfield and defence. Your keeper was immense though today. I fear our lack of taking chances will cost us in the end. I do like how Rooney set you up defending corners, leave 3 up field and it pulls more players out, leaving more space for Ruddy to collect almost every time. The ref, for both sides, I thought was very poor. Not playing advantage when she should, some questionable fouls, and cards. I was right in front when Engel took out your player. It sounded bad, so firstly glad both were ok. He never took his eyes of the ball, but I reckon if VAR was in the Championship then it could have been viewed different. Same with the offsides, very tight. But thats what I like about no VAR, plenty of talking points and decisions go for and against. Loved the banter between fans during the game, just a shame about the mindless minority towards the end and after. I suppose every club has them. Great vlog, I do enjoy watching them from opposing fans views. Good luck for the rest of the season, apart from when we come to St Andrews 😀 of course.
Myoshi and bacuna have been awesome lately so can't understand why neither started and Hogan been rubbish but was on from the get go really hope Rooney wakes up I don't think blues fans will put up with losing a few on the trot been through to much crap over last few seasons and the board will learn quickly that we won't stand for it good we have new owners but need listen to the fans I hope I'm wrong but I'm just not sure about Rooney tactics all wrong for me that display was negative hoping for better come Wednesday 😕
I agree. Rooney will want to play his style of football though. Which is fine but not right now. I’d have let them play how they’d been playing in the last few games, then slowly implement his tactics, and in January can start to recruit his own players. Should’ve got off to a good attack start today but like you say it was negative. Didn’t feel he really acknowledged us at the end of the game which was disappointing too. Disappointing day all round though
Completely agree. Let the team play how they’re used to today rather coming in with his own style immediately. Clearly didn’t gel with the players this afternoon
@tommykelsall Idont think Rooney has thought it through if we play to our strengths we will be OK just build the team slowly. The defence has been great, don't get it.
He's been brought in to do something different with the side. If he's going to play the same side and formation as Eustace, then what was the point of replacing him ? I don't think we'll be seeing that side that beat Huddersfield and Albion, anytime soon.
@@alantovey5454Your original post was spot on mate. Both the players and the fans would have been looking forward to playing exactly the same way as the previous 2 games. Rooney's ego took precedence over the wishes of players and fans alike. All he should have done was stick with the winning team and formation and watch and learn.
That's just ur brummie accent, didn't realise it until earlier but what they say is true, for whatever reason that brummie twang does make you lot sound very intelligent indeed 😮😅
Terrible performance without ruddy that could of been 8 ! We can't pass,defend or score I watched the game on boro TV and their commentator summed us up as bang average and in a false position in the league , what was that formation 😳
Blues cant play the way Rooney wants them to our players are not good enough never have been if Rooney persists with it he wo t last long at blues. Our owners want to emulate the better teams who can but on the cheap not there fault because they are not allowed to spend big for better players though they have got called people working for them who should know better all they needed was a manager who has had success in the championship Rooney is going to be a massive mistake unfortunately.
See all u lot saying give Rooney a chance he ain’t got a clue we was too wide sitting forward most of the match 4 defenders 3 defensive midfielders no creativity a better team woulda hammered us Zola .20
We do not have to be patient when we had a winning team and then some fat scouser comes in an makes it a losing team inside a week, we have gone from playing decant football to this garbage.
Thanks for watching!

i’m a boro fan but i’ve been on the end of many brutal late goals on away days, good vlog mate
Nothing brutal about that my friend, you fully deserved that win. Good side.

Mind boggling how Rooney was a brilliant striker yet thinks Hogan can play football, let alone score a goal. Hogan could not score playing Subbuteo.

1 boro fan vs 2000 blues and walked away with nothing but a tap on the head and some v signs thrown at him after 2000 blues give it big all game 😂
Telling a guy with a snapped achilles to fuck off, classy
The fact your trying to say it was a red card for Engel shows how bad Brums know football
Is it really disappointing then mate? Awww bless ya😂
Bad signing rooney manager,,should of stuck with your old one
Only time will tell. I’m still optimistic with him but if we don’t win games, it’ll prove not to be right, obviously
Rooney wont do anything with Birmingham city, he's a awful manager.
Why change a winning side, Rooney could have watched for a few games befoe slowly tweaking it .kro
