Saturday Arsenal v Hull City, 17:30 Can Hull's excellent run keep going. Against Arsenal? Away? No,
it can't. Prediction: 2-1 to Arsenal. Not an easy win for the Gunners, but a win nonetheless. Bonus
Prediction: DNA tests confirm Hull's 39 year old striker Dean Windass as the father of Jack
Wilshere, Carlos Vela and Kieran Gibbs.
Manucho, the Angola striker named in the Africa Cup of Nations Best 11, could make his
Manchester United debut tonight Carling Cup against Boro. I didn't know too much about him so, to
save you faithful readers the trouble, I researched him and have to say I'm looking forward to
seeing him have a run out.
I think I'm getting better at this predicting business. Last week's attempts at clairvoyance
actually yielded two correct scores (Man City 1-3 Chelsea and Portsmouth 2-1 Middlesbrough). But I
also predicted that Liverpool vs Man Utd would be goalless only for Carlos Tevez to make a liar out
of me within three minutes.
Stevenage Borough's Youth team begin their FA Youth Cup campaign tonight when they face
Bishop's Stortford at Broadhall Way. It's the first game in the Youth Cup for the newly
formed youth side since Colin Read took over during the summer. In their last game
Boro were beaten quite comfortably at Broadhall Way by Barnet.
Exactly 125 days after the final one of his 42 last season, Ronaldo converted his first of this
one. A Carling Cup tie with Middlesbrough may be somewhat less enthralling than a Champions League
final at the Luzhniki Stadium but the headers were eerily similar, marking the end of a turbulent
summer for Ronaldo and providing [.
Boro's recent improvement continued as Altrincham were beaten convincingly at Broadhall
Way this afternoon. Boro dominated the game from start to finish and outclassed a team who just
shouldn't be in this division. Altrincham were always going to put 10 men behind the ball as they
looked to take a point back to Cheshire.
After a tough win against Grays on Thursday night, Boro are back in action tomorrow afternoon when
York visit Broadhall Way. York began the season well and were unbeaten in their first 8 games,
although they did draw 5 of those, winning the other 3. Since then they have been beaten twice
against Kettering and [.
Graham Westley has completed 2 deadline day signings as he finalises his squad for the remainder of
2008. Goalkeeper Chris Day has signed a two year contract with Boro after a 2 game
"trial" where he impressed enough to warrant a permanent deal. He was subject
of late interest from Northampton Town, who have sold Mark Bunn [.
Garmin, proud sponsors of the Boro, have recently introduced a free file for your Garmin Sat Nav.
Gareth Southgate has been rewarded for Boro's good start to the 2008/09 Premier League season by
picking up the Manager of the Month award for August.
Jimmy Floyd Hasselbaink, the former Boro striker, has announced hie retirement from football after
deciding not to move to the Middle East for one last pay day.
Living here in Derbyshire as an exiled Boro' supporter, I only really get to see the away
games at Burton, York and Mansfield and it does have its benefits, methinks after what
had been a poor start to the season. However I decided to take in a trip with my son to Barrow to
see if Boro could get [.
Stockton-born Lee Cattermole has launched an attack on Boro claiming that he joined Wigan because
they're 'a better team'
After a difficult trilogy of away games, we finally return to Teesside this weekend in a match that
sees the Boro of today against a little bit of Boro from yesterday.
