And whilst they are on good form, it won't be anything like last nights game with the oppo sitting deep.
Boro have nothing to loose and need a win to maintain any hopes of the play-offs. I think it will be an open game, which should play into our hands.
Not too disappointed about last night, a vast improvement in performance (esp. the first half) against a team that didn't want to play and sat with seven in a low block for the entire match - never easy to break down teams like that.
Matches like today happen. Under KM they have, thankfully, been few and far between.
We weren't at the races and weren't able to impose ourselves in anyway today...no one really got going. However, it's rare under KM to see such a performance and it will not define us or our season.
That could be very quickly swallowed with transfer fees and player wages.
Infrastructure investment, such as Cat1 is a shrewd move as it adds assets and value to the Club in the long term and builds a much better footing for the Club to be successful over said period.
The other positive aspect is we are clearly worthy of investment and this makes it far more likely that further Investments becomes available to us.
The slight potential downside is this increases the number of interested parties who 'may' wish to get involved in day to day operations. So far we've been lucky in this regard that GC seem to be very comfortable leaving things to Ashton and KM and their respective teams.
I see huge benefits of this additional investment and how it can help further develop the Club off and on the pitch but I cannot deny a very small disquiet as well, purely for the unknown as much as anything. Too many cooks (not Paul) and all that.
However, in McKenna we trust must also translate to Ashton, Gamechanger et al
