    I still worry everytime a cross comes into our box. I really rate Raya and don't know how GK's are taught to come out and command the six yard box but the sooner the better.

    Frustrating for me. I hadn't realised in advance that Boro don't do iFollow.
    TM sounds quite niggly, which is a reflection of where we are, really. After all, most of us would have accepted a point in advance.
    I've just watched brief highlights. Two excellent goals.
    It sounds as if Boro defended very well, and yet again, Dack hits the post!

    At least Birmingham should be easier to score against!
    I'm definitely going for a home-win next Saturday!

    TM has said if there's one team you don't want to play against as a ten men, its boro.. A pulis team is so well drilled without the ball.. He has a point.. Literally..!

    I'd have taken a point.
    Them going down to 10 (from experience) means very little. They still play with 4 at back and 4 in midfield. They just played with 1 up front. We mat actually have beaten them with 11 vrs 11. A side down to 10 men will always try harder and be more difficult to break down. That's been the case in all the football matches I've seen over the years. This wasn't any different.

    Dack was very unfortunate to hit the post, yet again. They will start going in soon, when out bad luck stops. Evans missed a sitter from 6 yards out, which he simply has to score. 0-2 at HT and they probably don't come back.

    They score a brilliant curling equaliser which you can't legislate for.

    It keeps us in the correct position. We don't want to be in the play offs, as we simply aren't good enough to go up atcyjis early stage. But somewhere between 6-10th is about right. In the top half comfortably, and more than a match for any side in this league. I'm more than happy with that, as one as with an excellent away point at a decent solid side, who don't conceed. And we caused them problems all day.
