    Hello everyone. I'm coming into this one late. I locked myself out the apartment and this caused me to miss the first half viewing of our boy Spector. He has been quietly starting consistently on a underperforming BCFC side. I bid you all a good-day.

    Don't forget our man Seb Hines, starting once again for "Boro. Don't know his YA status, but there is certainly a lot of talk on the main YA board. Any word how the two are playing at half-time?

    Substitution: Wade Elliot on for Ravel Morrison. A youthful change. Can't give context, because I missed the first half.

    '50 Lots of pish. Robert Hall has been a active player in both good and bad ways. Hines has been moving the ball around well. He looks confident.

    Apparently Middlesborough has had the upper hand all game so far (per announcer).

    '53 Great ball over the top of defense by Leadbitter to Scott McDonald. Equally as impressive of a save from Butland. Butland looks talented, has a lot of length.

    '68 Two goals have been scored since I had a tree delivered. Crap. McDonald scored on a tap in. Assisted by HINES!

    Spector had a good shot that was saved. Later, Birmingham scored off a drive from substitute Wade Elliot.

    Spector has brought his game today. Compliments from the commentators.

    '77 Piercing run from Spector, but King can't find him with two men on

    Spector engineers a link play that is thwarted in the top of the box.

    '80 Strong header away from the area by Hines. Killes a BCFC attack.

    '81 Marlon King profits off a giveaway from Middlesborough and has a outstanding effort realizes with a right footed shot.

    Edit: Hines not really at fault.

    '92 Hines has long throw ability similar to Lichaj, if you follow that player.

    FT 3 - 2 Birmingham. Decent showing from Spector, but he was absent at times. Hines was a key player for Middlesborough defensively and had a assist.

    I wish I could provide a fill analysis, but I missed the first half and part of the second half production. Spector had a really strong 20 min in the second half including a shot being saved. At times he was barely involved in the play.

    Hines was active throughout. He demonstrated a good passing range and recorded an assist. The commentators spoke of him with high regard and he appears a talented player. He's tall and slow, but has good intelligence, passing range, and set piece skills.

    Was Spector playing in the midfield or rb?

    Midfield from my view.
