HAPPY birthday Boro… Red Faction set the mood for the club’s 140th anniversary with a super set piece spectacular display and the team responded with a great display. The first win of the season put a cherry on the top of a good week that yielded four points and lifted Boro back up to a healthy spot on the point a game survival trajectory. Excellent.
Here’s my colour bit in which I hail the Red Faction and award them the man of the match bubbly. Well deserved. They have been brilliant in the past few years.
And here’s my player ratings for the game. I expected flak for giving my top mark to Victor Valdes but it seems to have met with general approval. There have been a a few quibbles on one of two of the other marks though. What do you think?
