Its shame that football is played on grass. Remember folks Newcastles crap defence with no proper holding midfielder in front of it, never mind 2 holding midfielders in front it let less goals in than a boro defence that often had Boatang & Dorito in front of it.
Boro have a better squad than newcastle... but the barcodes have been more successful in the league and have a manager that is highly experienced, even if he does wear a nappy Gonna be a close one this season, but as soon as shearer retires even the mackems will be finishing higher than the skunks
I don't get why people are so against the idea..! Boro do have a strong squad this season, and while we also have good players, there's no law (unfortunately ) that prevents the smogmonsters from ever being remotely better than us. Personally I couldn't give a flying rats bent arse about Boro until we've sorted our own mess of a club out.
