Middlesbrough have lost out to Derby County in the race for the Championship playoffs.
Bernie Slaven has taken to Twitter to give his reaction to Middlesbrough missing out on the Championship playoffs to Derby County.
Middlesbrough have finished seventh in the Championship table this season with 73 points from 46 matches, a point behind Derby.
The Rams got the better of West Bromwich Albion 3-1 at the Pride Park Stadium on Sunday afternoon, while Boro won 2-1 against Rotherham United away from home.
Former Middlesbrough forward Slaven has taken to Twitter to give his reaction to Tony Pulis’s side failing to clinch a playoff spot.
At the start of the season, Middlesbrough were expected to challenge for automatic promotion, but as the campaign progressed, it was clear that Boro were going to struggle to do that.
Under Pulis, the team did not play good football, and there was a lack of consistency that sides aiming to finish in the top two of the Championship need.
Middlesbrough now need to invest in the squad in the summer transfer window and make the right signings to get them in the top two next season.
