    Not sure Jones even touched him there. Deserved a yellow card for the stupidity of the lunge.

    Jones has some decent attributes as a footballer sadly none of them are defensive qualities.

    I almost want Boro to score again so I can switch it off and do something worthwhile.

    He did put a decent cross in about 2 seasons back though.

    Wilson has to change man cause o'shea is left standing in dust. O'shea flat footed and switched off as per. I thinks he can point and do **** all himself and that's 'organisation. All awful though they did manage to find their man just in time and one ball dislodges the lot of them.

    He also scored against the mags once. Though that hasn’t been particularly difficult in recent times.

    As I type this Jones just tackled Gibson and injured himself. Sums him up.

    Yeah having seen that last replay Wilson wasn’t much at fault, I’ll yield this one. Ha.

    To be fair to you,Wilson did cause a bit of confusion a second before but they found their men in time. I'f O'shea is on his toes he has a chance of staying on his man. Jones 5 yards behind his man. Wilson not faultless, just not directly at fault.

    Free kick to assombalonga was no different to what just happened in the box to Grabban and Cattermole jumps past his man and gets a free kick given? The referees in this league are seriously Doing my head in

    Every 50/50 bounce going their way as well. We could do with a little luck here

    They're getting everything when they fall over mind. Al,out every time someone in a boro shirt asks for something it's given?

    N’Dong is looking great we need to give him the ball more and open up space for McGeady.

    I really do like Grabban as well, there’s positives.

    I'll settle for us doing the basics right if we have it in us.

    Gibson does read the game well doesn’t he, just the reactions of a sloth.

    Yeah we should have scored twice by now. Need to convert though with our backline.

    aye me too at the back. We look OK with the ball going forward but defensively were atrocious

    Mathews did well there. Much better player than Jones imo

    The frustrating thing is Boro look crap apart from their goal but you know they're taking the three points anyway.
