Boro again

I had the misfortune last season of going up to Middlesbrough to watch us get tonked 3-0.

Times have changed, and Steve McClaren is now the national coach, and Gareth Southgate, unlicensed, unbadged, and illegally in charge, is now the Boro manager.

I was on the phone to my Boro mate on Monday. We were discussing Southgate, and the conclusion was...nice guy, but a loser. Not a loser like that, but...in my own words "He's a Tim Henman"

Anyway, someone obviously got onto him, and told them some Chelsea upstart had called him Tim Henman. This made him mad, and he set out to show me up...and he did. A very poor Boro side, again turned us over! With ten mins to go we were a goal up, but they got 2 in the final ten, and finished us off. We did look woeful, and certainly there are parts of the team that need to be worked on, but it isn't exactly game over....Although, the way you hear some of the "fans" go on, you'd think it was time to sack Jose and start all over again!
