British #singer Chris Rea of #Middlesborough NE #England best known for the song "Driving home for Christmas" has passed away at age 74 after a short illness (TBH its impressive and a credit to the #NHS he made it that far, he had all sorts of serious health problems even in relative youth, but made it to middle age at some points taking 33 different pills per day as required medication) and recovered from a stroke in 2016)

RIP #ChrisRea - and surely #RoadtoHell was a far more accomplished and significant work than the mid-atlantic-feeling Christmas song (even if they're both about car dependency) #Middlesborough

Nah. I am good. Spirited performance. Only beaten by two dumb goals (again!) but definitely not outplayed. I have accepted that we are probably not in a playoff race but if we play like that, we will win a lot more games than not.

Boro have just resorted to disrupting the flow of the game which is always something that stops our attacks. We have been the way better team but they are still up.

Four to go.

I am fine with the effort but it is frustrating.

Annoying. We are actually the better team.

But I have already decided to get a few beers later on either way.

Ugh. Daft deflection....

Edit: Fair play to Hackney, that was clever.

Whoop. Technical issues. Late to the party.

0:1 behind because we just cannot defend set pieces.
