Credit Crunch?

Boro fans - where are you? OK so it was a Sunday, the game was on TV, there is a recession on, and it was a match with Everton at Goodison, a place where traditionally Boro get nothing, but surely a few more could have made the trip across the M62? Maybe not. For most of the match, I can't say I was greatly enamoured with my 240 mile trip. But what can you do? If it needs those 240 miles to avoid Richard Keys and his band of bland, fawning men, I'll do it. Even my dislike of Sky is being tested by Everton at present who continue to stumble through matches, showing little cohesive shape or play. Certainly no width and not a great deal of invention. Despite this, they've been winning recently and somehow made it up to 7th spot in the league table last weekend. That said, with a run of games versus a tougher Wigan, a resurgent Tottenham and then Villa, City and Chelsea coming up before Christmas, we could equally be bottom seven by the time Santa drops down the festive chimney. Yo-ho-ho.
