I see Those Boro players who were rolling around injured last Friday are all fit for today.

 

[Steve from Oz]

Well one automatic place has all but gone with Watfords win today. Not mathematically gone though, as City can still catch them with a goal feast today to make up the 3 goal GD and City win and Watford lose at home to Sheff Weds next week.

If we win we wont even know the true status until Monday night after Bournemouth has played

 

[Steve from Oz]

Afternoon Bears and Carl

[Steve from Oz]
