    Curiously they sit in the top 2, but havent won a game since Sept 19th.

    Hard fought game, my head says 2-2, but my heart says 0-1.

    A 0-1 away win and we keep on climbing.

    Don't think this is the game where we'll get our first away win. But confidence from the Derby result will carry us to well earned 2-2 draw.

    The Gaffer curse has been overthrown. All hail the Gaffer!

    I was going to predict a draw but just noticed Gaffer’s win streak. 2-1 Ipswich!

    Much will depend how quickly several key players return from international duty, and such a short time together before travelling a long distance up North for a challenging Friday eve fixture. My usual optimism may be unfounded.

    Gaffer, he is not questioning your score prediction, just your failure rate when doing the match day thread.
    Though you have had a win and a draw so far this season <cheers>

    Think this will be a tough tight game for both sides, and can see this being a not so exciting 0-0 draw

    Palmer saves the day, twice. Three times, he earns his wages this week.

    Own goal by Kipre, oh dear!

    1-0 Leif at fault, poor defense.

    Annoying first half. Looked like we’d go into half time 1-0 up but end it 1-0 down.

    Thought we edged it first 20 minutes, but then Boro get back into the game. Palmer makes some great saves but we looked far too porous. Davis and Furlong struggling. Kipre under hitting passes. Cajuste looking far too complacent.

    Egeli has been anonymous and unable to influence the game. Hirst should’ve put his penalty away, although it was a great save. And then a comical goal to concede - sloppy by Davis and embarrassing footwork by Kipre.

    Time for McKenna to earn his money, sort out the issues, and get something from this game.
