Its just my take but the fact that Roberts has been out so long may well work in our favour, if the other two they have out on loan have been playing regularly & Roberts at best ring fusty if not still fit then Boro may well leave him with us, the other option of course would be our forward thinking board may try to strike a deal with the player & his club to complete a permanent deal to be signed on the ist of jan , then again I might just wake up from my dream in a minute !!
