Quite surprised King hasn't come back in for James, but other than that it's as expected.

Yep. Moved up to having two defenders on the bench now that Beckford has gone. Thought Danns might've taken his place on the bench.

 

[Graz]

Woodgate was a fitness doubt for Boro (shockingly) but starts.

Beckford wasn't on the bench against Ull. It's Schlupp who has been dropped to make way for Moore.

Ah good point.

He must've shat in Nigel's car too.

Does NP employ a car valet service? Seems like it could be quite a lucrative opportunity…

Fingers crossed for 3 points

Seems an easy way to do it.
I thought we had to outscore them for 3 points.

 

[MerseyFox]

Considering our season, even that is going to be difficult!

Until he fell out with them and they took a shit in it too.

 

[Longcliffe]

Come on City!!!!!

 

[Graz]

Nugent getting in there, getting a corner.

Terrorising the defence early on says Stringer. Make it count.

 

[Graz]

Marshall's going to score today.

 

[MerseyFox]

Anything happening?

 

[Profondo Rosso]

Anything happening?

Not really.

 

[Willlow]

Come on city!

 

[Profondo Rosso]

De Laet injured, could go off by the sounds of it.

 

[Profondo Rosso]

Nugent just wide.
