The Lads nipped down the A19 for an early game in the Teesside fug, and should really have been ahead at the break as our good chances missed led theirs by two to one. There was a debut for Hjelde that allowed Hume to revert to right back, and we fought back to grab a point after looking lost in the second half until Rusyn and Roberts arrived on the scene. A point away from home? I'll take that.
Having spent a pleasant half hour in the Elwick services there was an escorted convoy to the ground, where we were greeted with funny faces and four-finger salutes. I assume that constitutes A level maths on Teesside. Mind, the maths must be dodgy when one of Boro's sponsors is Teesworks who seem to have free rein to divert public funds wherever they like.
