A goal for the Main man.

Last night's 3-1 victory at Millwall has put us back in the play off positions, still with a game in hand on a few of the teams, so for every Middlesbrough fan it is promising to be a exciting run in. Last night's victory came courtesy of two goals from Marvin Emnes who after two minutes of the game i was tweeting to say how terrible he is/was. Also there was first goal for the club for Curtis Main, funny enough a year yesterday Main played in his last game in the Conference for Darlington. Bet this lad can't believe his luck! Last night also involved a return for Barry Robson to the midfield, even at 33 he is our best player FACT!

Also i'm glad to get my prediction of 3-1 correct.

Millwall away tonight

After Millwall's heroics in the earlier round's of the FA cup means we have to travel down there midweek, which was something i didn't fancy after already forking out for the train a few month ago for the game meant for last Saturday. Plus we have a few mid weeks games coming up over the next month i would rather go to, i.e Ipswich and West Ham. Hopefully the re-arranged game against Ipswich will be a free one courtesy of MFC. Highly doubt it.

Since we were back to winning ways after last week's 2-1 win over Nottingham Forest, i reckon we will go the Den tonight and give a good performance and i reckon we can come away from the capital with all three points. Three points will take us back into the play off's and hopefully it will mean we are going onto a good run in. A good run in is important if we want to get into the top 2/play off.'s. With such players as Barry Robson who last week signed a pre - contact with MLS side Vancouver Whitecaps and Nicky Bailey regaining fitness we are nearly back to a full strength squad which will benefit us a lot in the run in.

Prediction for tonight 3-1 Boro!

Away for a week or two.

From tomorrow i'm away on a course so no blogging for me. Only time i'm home, i'll straight back on the road to Ipswich next Saturday to watch hopefully something better then a 0-0, like i seen tomorrow in snowy conditions. Woeful that's all i am gonna say about today.

Well back on to the next two weeks away, i have been looking around for something to watch while away, so i decided to get Series 1 and 2 of Luther the BBC drama hit. It involves Idris Elba (The Wire) who is a detective tormented by the darker side of humanity, Luther shines a light where others fear to tread.

Hopefully this will keep me entertained, having to put up with missing the FA cup replay against Sunderland on Wednesday night.

Away Game Midweek

After the ups and downs of the cup at the weekend, it was back to the league. After dropping from 4th to 8th the night before it was important we got back to winning ways after three straight league defeats.

It was Leicester away, the big spenders of the division. Not really fancying our chances and even less so after they took the lead straight away in the game through David Nugent. Then we hit back not long after through Australian Scott McDonald.

  As the second half started, we were the better team but then started to sit back as the game went on, looking like it could be the fourth straight defeat, then on 80 minutes a moment of brilliance from Tony McMahon made it 2-1 "Boro". This was looking like back unto fourth place we go, then on 86th minute a mistake from the goalscorer allowed Beckford in to score from close range to make it 2-2. Before the game i would of took a score draw, but if you asked me on the 81th minute i would of wanted the win.

Roll On Palace at the weekend!

How many different colour coats do Leicester stewards have?!

Latest Purchase

After spending the night in Newcastle, the next day i found myself in End Clothing. As soon as i walked in i seen the coat i was have looking for. It was the Universal Work Fell Jacket. I just had to have it. Looking forward to its first outing at Leicester away tomorrow.

Weekend

After the trip to Stadium of Light and seeing Barry Robson's goal i had already lost my voice, but after this i made my way to see The Maccabees in Newcastle which ensured my voice had totally gone. It was my first time in seeing The Maccabees and i was really impressed, after listening to them for years they really sounded the same live. I will now have to go and see them in Middlesbrough in March!
