Wrexham 2-0 Middlesbrough - fans' verdict

Middlesbrough suffered a 2-0 defeat against Wrexham on Wednesday, leaving their lead at the top of the Championship at just one point. The team's absence of top-scorer Will Lankshear, who was injured, was heavily criticized by fans.

David expressed his disappointment, stating that Boro is essentially a one-man team. Michael accused manager Danny Hellberg of a disgraceful rotation of the squad, questioning how he expects his team to function without Lankshear.

David J criticized Hellberg's selection, saying the team's performance was lackluster and that the correct changes should have been made in the first half. However, he conceded that it was too late to make a difference. Graham noted the team's lack of intensity and poor defending, particularly from the wide players, who barely managed to beat the last man. He stated that Wrexham deserved the win, implying that Wrexham didn't deserve anything from the performance of Middlesbrough.

Dave summed up the fans' sentiment, saying Boro was unrecognizable and deserved nothing more than a loss. He emphasized the need for improvement, particularly in the central defense, ideally by January. Len echoed this sentiment, describing the team as slow and ponderous, a pattern that seems to occur every time Ayling plays.
