Middlesbrough's playoff hopes were severely dented yesterday with a 3-0 thrashing at the City Ground by a Nottingham Forest side who are sitting comfortably in mid-table.

Boro, therefore should have won to keep up their playoff challenge but they turned in a truly pitiful performance that has left their fans fuming on Twitter.

One fan claimed: "It has been a long time since Boro fans were this disconnected from the club."

Middlesbrough have had a low-scoring season but have maintained a playoff presence, now however, they have let it slip and are relying Derby County to mess up to even have a chance.

One fan claimed that he doesn't even want the club to make the play-offs, such is the woefulness of their recent performances.

The Boro faithful have blamed Pulis for most of this season for insipid, negative football but yesterday the fury of the fan base went towards the board, players and the manager all at once.

Fans see this as the final straw and want some mass changes at the club - just look at the best of the Twitter reactions down below...
