LOAN WINDOW
I'm confused, when does the loan window actually open? Is it sometime this week and when does it close?
Seems to be lots of talk about Brian Hughes of Hull, he's 33 years old, are we trying to go from a youth team to Dad's Army?
Must win games
Next two at home to gain confidence at home and start a charge for the play offs.....fingers crossed
Loan Players
The Championship play-off final is on 22nd May so I would assume if we are going to bring in any loan players we consider to be key players (ie a left winger) then we should make sure we bring them in on or after 23rd February otherwise they will be ineligible for the final, assuming we get there.
That's another 2 weeks away though and I think we'll probably bring them in before that which we could regret at the end of the season.
What do other people think we should do?
LETS PUSH THINGS FORWARD!
Please can all fans bring their scarf to the match! This will help to bring more movement and colour, and greatly improve the look of the Riverside.
The Red Faction lads are doing a grand job in bringing noise and colour back to the Riverside, They have big ambitions and many unique ideas for the future. We must support this movement! It is for the good of our football club.
Lets come together and turn the Riverside into a loud, visual representation of our love for the club. We all want the Riverside to be our fortress, Lets turn our ground into a *couldren of positive tribal energy that is noisy, bouncing, colourful and an intimidating place for opposition teams and there fans.
This all starts with us, Individuals like you and me! This is a call for all fans to bring their scarves (and any other flags, banners you may have) to the match to twirl above their heads. Lets Sing for the full 95 minutes and get right behind the lads. Lets show our Passion and Pride with noise, movement and colour. This is our team, our club, our home. Lets get back to the Premier League where we belong, Lets get back into Europe to complete our unfinished business.
Up he Boro!,
WE SHALL OVERCOME!

Well done came from behind 2 home games
Is Karen Brady talking about Sir Gibson?
Reading Karen Brady's diary in the wonderful Sun newspaper and I was wondering whether she was talking about Steve Gibson with this comment:
Thursday, February 4
YOU might have thought that with HM Revenue and Customs creditors at the door, it couldn't be worse for one particular club owner.
But it can, in the avenging form of his estranged wife. This well-known chairman, exiled in the Channel Isles with his mistress of many years, is being sued for half of everything by his wife - and her interpretation of the club's multi-million debt is intriguing. This, she says, is his personally and she ought, therefore, to be owed the same sum from his other assets.

Ipswich Town Vs Boro.
New signings Scott McDonald, Lee Miller and Kyle Naughton go straight into the Middlesbrough squad for the trip to Ipswich in a comprehensive overhaul.
Strikers David Healy and Daryl Murphy are both hoping to make their debuts for Ipswich when Middlesbrough visit Portman Road. Manager Roy Keane raided former club Sunderland to sign the the pair on loan on transfer deadline day. Defender Alex Bruce was surprisingly allowed to join Leicester on loan, while striker Tamas Priskin moved to QPR. Captain Jon Walters continues to be ruled out by a hamstring injury and is joined on the sidelines by goalkeepers Richard Wright and Brian Murphy. Winger Luciano Civelli will not be available until next season.
New signings McDonald, Miller and Naughton go straight into the Middlesbrough squad for the trip to Ipswich. The trio will join transfer-window arrivals Chris Killen, Willo Flood and Stephen McManus, although Barry Robson is suspended.
Chris Riggott, Emanuel Pogatetz (both hamstring), Jeremie Aliadiere (ankle) and Rhys Williams (pelvic injury) are all still out, while Seb Hines (ankle and knee ligament) and Matthew Bates (cruciate ligament) remain on the long-term casualty list.
BUZZ
I for one dont mind admitting that I have the buzz and excitement coming back to me somewhat and am looking forward to the next few games with a bit more confidence.
Not going to make disparaging comments about new signings just want to get behind them because they are OUR team,
