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.

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?!

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!

What A Weekend Ahead.

Apart from working tomorrow, this weekend has the makings to be a good one. Sunderland away on Sunday followed by The Maccabees in Newcastle on the night.

After a 5 hour queue in arctic conditions to get this, hopefully it'll be all worth while. They have been arguments all over about our allocation of only 3,000. I personally reckon we could of took well over 5,000. But never mind this, it'll be a great day and hopefully we'll nick a win, as it goes the magic of the cup!
