Boro bossed the second half but conceded a sloppy goal and couldn’t find the target from eight of our nine second half shots. Crooks was unlucky to fi...

Bugger. Very poor goal to concede after Boro had started the second half so much better.

Henderson would be a superb signing. I mentioned I would only get a keeper in if we can find a top one or one with massive potential. Henderson is bot...

I don't think Spence and Jones are a direct comparison to be honest. Spence is playing as a right fullback with a wide player ahead of him. His first ...

I agree with that RR. I’d really like to see Tav have an extended run at LWB and settle into the position. His natural abilities look well suited to...

Thanks Pedro. Re McGree, as a left-footed central midfielder, the options appear to be Howson or Tav’s spot. I think we’ll be waiting a little whi...
