BORO TIMING THEIR RUN

But on this evidence, Boro are the likeliest suspects. Unbeaten in eight, one defeat in 16 – ever so quietly, the men from Teesside have built a formidable momentum.
More importantly, they play with a combination of class, grit and intelligence that equips them to stymie even dangerous opponent like Derby.
The Rams tried everything but Boro always had the answers.
