I must have missed that. Depends what kind of hand ball it was. I'm sure I heard they were gonna relax the handball rules this weekend though I don't know if that was the entire football league.

Bola had the ball down the left and he whipped a cross in. Britt nearly got on the end of it. But before that it deflected off the defender in between him and Bola and he used his arm.  It was down by his side but he moved towards the ball I’m sure of it.

Had to change my picture after looking through today's match gallery. I knew George would have to go at some point but never did I expect to see such a happy face in a Middlesbrough shirt for Marc Bol

If Akpom wasn't offside for the deflected shot and if he'd have put that one-on-one away from the mistake, that could have been one of the biggest *** house hat-tricks of all time.

We've been crying out for a dynamic formation for years... This reading is more exciting to me than SmogDane's browser history!

I hope Bola can get a run in the team and gain some confidence. I really think he could ‘do a Dijksteel’ and become a favourite if he does. From what I remember watching him last season he was good on the ball and could go past a player, put some decent crosses in aswell. He just needs to impose himself more on games.

From what I remember of him last season, he was dreadful in the air, generally not an intelligent defensive player and not that good going forward either. Still, the lad is really young, I'd rather give him a chance when 'first-choice' left-back is not playing well at all. I'd generally prefer the one playing there to be Coulson but I'd rather Bola than Johnson right now for sure.

We've looked extremely comfortable at the back - im a little wary of getting carried away though because i think barnsleys confidence looks absolutely shot. They look like a team that haven't scored all season.

Our defence will have bigger tests than this, for sure. Quite like Bournemouth, our width is really not being tested.

Ouch, that should have been 2-1.
