The starting XI - Pukstas, Conway & Strelec on the bench:
Or even a lone loan deal... 😉 Sorry, KP, couldn't resist!
Sounds as though we may have unearthed a little gem:
Jarkko: the Hartlepool Mail also gave Ayling a 5 & pretty much said he was to blame for the Baggies' goal:

And now up to 18th in the table on two points! Grrr...
Echo player ratings: And Scott Wilson's match report:
Tommy Conway on for Lankshear in the 86th minute. 🙂 Alfie Jones makes it 3-1 a minute later.
And gives Boro the lead again in the 73rd minute. Would love to see him claim a hat-trick!
Joseph & Jones on for Whittaker & McGree in the 69th minute.
Bugger! The Baggies equalise in the 65th minute. 🙁 Ayling at fault.
Players seem to have woken up, too! CJ on the goal: Great play from Boro. Brittain into McGree. McGree first-time back to Whittaker, who cuts in a...
Lanky Will gives Boro the lead in the 48th minute! 🙂 Crowd has suddenly woken up!

So, Strelec AND Conway on the bench...
Great opener, Andy. 👍 News from the Echo of the varying degrees of readiness/availability of Tommy Conway, Adilson Malanda, Sam Byram, Ashl...
And the associated problems mount:
Matches to be played in the weeks commencing 7th & 14th September.
Maybe we'll get all three once Byram is in harness! 😉
Echo player ratings, Sarmiento MotM: And the Gazette's which also went for Sarmiento:
Hutchinson grabs a consolation goal for Rovers in the second minute of injury time. Shame no clean sheet.
Sarmiento adds a third in the 87th minute, assisted by Phillips! Finally comfortable! Four minutes of injury time.
No sooner does he get on the pitch than he scores: Lanky Will in the 78th minute, assisted by Whittaker!
Lanky Will & PHILLIPS on for Jones & Joseph in the 71st minute.
