I wish! She was half my age

And she looked good for a 46 year old.

Considering it was an anti-red day with Boro's all white kit, it was ironic that their player saw red on the day. It follows on from last week's red to the Luton player which is more ironic I guess. Tough enough to beat Boro 3-0, but we did it while having to also play Birmingham and Brighton at the same time (according to Oggy )

Behind a pay-wall, but 4 of our players made Team of the Day in the Football League Paper - 3 goalscorers plus Dovin.

I was two tables away from Oggy at a certain curry house on Friday evening. Can only assume it was the classic ‘dodgy Ruby’ to blame?

Just finished watching the replay after being unable to see match yesterday due to prior commitments. Avoided the Internet entirely until Sunday afternoon, even. A compelling display, nervy game, we seemed 10x rougher than usual, far hungrier. Couldn't tell half the time we were supposedly a one man advantage, though? Good finished goals, shame about the chalked off ones as offside. Surprised about the clean sheet.

Is Simms okay?
What was the explanation for the all white kits and numbers?

Glad to see Dieng was able to keep playing through the injury.
Thank you lads for turning an already great weekend into a greater one.

Simms got a knock in training on Friday and didn’t feel fit to play. The white kit was for an anti knife crime campaign, Arsenal did similar recently.

Thanx for the info, violence in all forms should be abhorred.

Not that it'll make one bit of difference (wearing all white(

Cracking day out, great win and another ground checked off. Before the Luton game, I was struggling for motivation. It's amazing what a couple of results can do. That drive home Sunday morning was a struggle.

The SBA was noisy and I thought being out in Boro was friendly. We spent most of the night in a right dive but the shitter, the better on away days.

Me too. They somehow kept finding space in the middle.

Probably the best side we've played. They fell apart when we got the second.

Best side we played???
Hardly make the top 10
