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).

Routledge was offside once as was Gorky, his pass accuracy was greater than Dhanda's and he created more half chances than any other play ... no one created a clear cut scoring opportunity
I'd start Routs every game and from central attacking midfield.
When Cabango went off we lost all our shape in defence and Grimes for Fulton just allowed a big path of nothing to open up for Boro to exploit.
I'd definitely rest Manning, Lowe, Woodman and Smith for Luton.
