The Future is bright, the Future is Boro

Last Saturday the mighty Boro played some team you may have heard of called Arsenal. Plucky Arsenal came through and beat us 4-1. Fortunately despite our attempts to get tickets to the game, all away tickets were sold out. Unfortunately, we're playing them three more times before the month is out (twice in the Carling Cup semi-final and once in the FA Cup). We'll be subjecting ourselves to next Tuesday's (20th January) game at Highbury.

The one bright spot that we were able to take out of last Saturday was the MSS Supporters South Ball. This is an annual event which we've attended over the last three years. This year one of the highlights for me was meeting two of the young players that the Boro have coming through, Andrew Davies (left) and Stewart Downing (right).

I probably won't be getting a start for the Boro for another couple of years, but with the way our strikers are playing, I might get a go up front this season.
