Badically he said, "I mentioned at the beginning of the programme about Middlesbrough, which I didnt see, tgen followed up with mentioning, I want Palace to do well, my former team, then spkje about the mighty Boro, saying, thetes a massive buzz up thete at the moment & someone is going to get a thumping, I think he said thumping
He's really impressed with the present Boro team

Chelsea play:
- Norwich (A) on Thur 10th
- Newcastle (H) Sun 13th
- Lille (A) Wed 16th
- Boro (A) Sat 19th
In that same 9 days, we play:
- Millwall (A) Sat 12th
- Birmingham (A) Tue 15th
- Chelsea (H) Sat 19th
That's really gonna give us an edge with energy levels. I like that it will be our first home game in 2 weeks, which will get areal buzz around the place

I’m getting flashbacks of relegating them and getting promoted at the same time

It’s awfully convenient that Liverpool, Chelsea and City have been kept apart
They are all reserved for us

Brilliant game that. Was there. It still doesn’t compensate for the Cup Final defeats though.

I remember them bringing less than 1200 fans for a night game at the Riverside. I would be surprised if they will sell the allocation Spurs got - 3800?
As said lets cut the 2,000 lost for segregation - there will be over 30,000 Boro fans fighting for a ticket - don't end up like this poor Boro fan in 1971;

They can afford to play their reserves against Norwich and Newcastle could they not? They are also 2-0 up against Lille so an early goal and they then withdraw 5 players at HT
