Love the way you lot conveniently forget to mention how Palace completely took you apart at your place in that second half.

1-3 or 1-1 mmmmmmm......:rolleyes:

Need a reminder?

You weren't a patch on Middlesboro - a fact borne out by the league table at the moment where you are.....ah yes, quite a way below both teams being discussed. In the first 20 mins of the 1-3 you didn't touch the ball. After that we gifted you the game.

They were good and well organised, but for me, Millwall have been the best team to play at the Amex. They destroyed us, yet we still got a point. Based on that performance its hard to believe where they are in the league.

Millwall didn't destroy us Trotter did, just 1 man and they as a unit were not on the same planet at Middlebro.

You weren't at the game yesterday so how can you question the comparative judgement of people who were at both matches? Many of us were not slow to praise Palace's performance last time there was a thread about the best visitors to the Amex. That defeat knocked the stuffing out of the Albion for a good few months. I don't have any problems in being open about that, nor about Palace playing well long before they scored. However, there was something very canny and accomplished about Middlesbrough that deserves to be fully acknowledged, irrespective of the fact we escaped with a point. The answer to all of NSC's questions about other teams isn't always Crystal Palace, y'know! :)

Millwall deserved to beat us. I think yesterday was a fair result. I dont buy this "Boro are the best stuff" They were good but certainly not the best.

It is all about opinions and IMHO Millwall didn't deserve to beat us and were not a patch on Middlesbro who were a well organsed and disciplined side with quality in every area from goalkeeper to striker and even the subs that came on.

I thought Boro put on the best display over the entire 90 minutes of any visiting team this season. They owned the first 10 minutes of the first and second halves and in between kept a high line which nullified our midfield and most times were quicker to the "second ball". Their goalkeeper also made some excellent saves too,. All things considered I thought we did well to earn a point.

Mboro were consistent, but not the best team to play here, that was palace. We contained Mboro for most of the game.

Just our luck that Palace's best performance in the last couple of years had to come in that game! However, there is no doubt our 16 is far better than Palace's.

You forgot to mention Palace's great win against Man U's third string......:rolleyes:
