I don't think I'll make it to d's anyway... i mean early on a sunday for boro? I can stay home, sleep a bit more, pull a stream up online and enjoy it, then go straight back to bed afterwards :D

    BigSoccer has it listed on Setanta at 8:30 if you look at the OnTV page. I hope that's right, gives me a chance to watch it before I have to go bake 20 pies with the Girl Scouts.

    DirecTV definitely has it listed for Setanta at 8:30 Sunday. Paying for that channel has been so worth it.:D

    4 in a row?

    Yakubu looks like he'll start. Hopefully a 4-4-2 with Saha up top aswell.

    Every time Yakubu takes a dive, I want to kick him in the teeth.

    I miss the Lescott from last season.

    EDIT: And Arteta was playing through injury last season. He's looked more himself since he had the surgery over the summer.

    Yes, he was hurt last year, but I'm still not seeing his best this season. We look better today than we have in a lot of the games, hopefully the goals will come.

    Mixed Emotions from this one, we deserve to have scored a few but still aren't playing well. Boro are the new luckiest side in the world. The defence and Howard are a complete shambles yet again, Lescott in particular, he's good going forward but seems to have lost the knowledge on how to defend. He was all at see for the goal not helped by Nevilles decision to stay up near the half way line meaning we had to shift along, he very nearly made up for it, but Howard should have done a lot better with it, getting beaten at the near post? Every time they counter we are vulnerable. I can see us losing this 3-0 and ruing our bad luck and missed chances.
    Why is Osman on the field, he hasn't been playing well for weeks and isn't playing well now, he needs a week or twos rest and Pienaar should be taking his place. (Hopefully so he can score like he did last year). Positives...Saha and Yakubu are gelling well up top, Saha is getting a lot of flick ons to Yakubu, also thought Turnbulls challenge on Yakubu was either a goal kick or a penalty certainly not a corner as Turnbull got absolutely nowhere near the damn ball. Fellaini and Arteta both playing well in the centre, and the only other funny thing I can think of was Riggott cupping Yakubu's arse in the box, for one of our 7 or so corners that we have been unlucky to convert...!

    Right VENTED, back to the match with a cup of tea and a hob nob.

    They're the Royal Marines of dipping biscuits.

    Oh yeah and Yakubu converts a great ball in from soon to be England Midfielder Mikel Arteta.

    We so deserved to win that game, Boro were barely hanging on, yet still remaining dangerous. I'm glad we got at least a point but realistically it should have been 3.

    My 30 min nap from last night turned into a 13 hour one so I missed the game. I was surprised by the score line and even more so by how quickly they scored. We need to mix up the defense this January if we can.
