Pomp-ey And Circumstance

Well. That’ll learn us. If we ever feel compelled to be mildly concerned about our prospects for an upcoming game, we’ll do well to take a cue from this week’s wonderful victory at MK Dons. In bouncing back from the defeat at Colchester United so admirably, we also get the …

It’s Easy MK

OK, don’t believe the blog title. It certainly won’t be easy MK. Tomorrow is arguably Boro’s toughest test of the season to date, and it doesn’t help that it comes off the back of our first league defeat of the season. Having gone 10 unbeaten, we’ll have to go some …
