It's not all bad news boys and girls... we might be getting hammered by Athletic, but Middlesbrough have just brought in Aaron Ramsey on loan! So every cloud...
 
Hot of the Press! News in the build up to tonights meeting of Swansea and Middlesbrough...

Middlesbrough Press Officer said:
Annihilate Now Recieves Lowe Blow

There was an awkward moment for one interviewer in the build up to tonights averagely sized friendly between Middlesbrough and Swansea City. Whilst interviewing Middlesbrough's Annihilate Now, ESPN's Rebecca Lowe came in for a tirade of abuse from the foul mouthed manager.

When asked for his reaction to Kristoffer Johansen's "kind" words about both him and his Middlesbrough side given earlier in the day, Mr. Now replied "Kris what?? Who the feck is that?!" When Lowe informed him that he was the manager of tonights opponents Swansea, Mr. Now responded "The feck? What's wrong with you? You're a fecking journalist for feck sake, it's your fecking job to know who the feck is in charge of what club and you can't even do that right you stupid feck. Give me that microphone and sit down love, I'm about to teach you a fecking lesson."

Annihilate Now continued... "The manager of Swansea is a Nick Frost look-a-like called Burrow... BURROW, not Kristina or whatever the feck you called him... and of course he'll have kind words to say about my team, my current squad of players is a fecking walking disaster. A fecking blind girl walking around with her skirt in the air and Frosty's boys are going to feck us into next week. My plan is to get through this game and then all the majority of that shower of shite you see on the pitch will be out of the door come tomorrow... and that's a fecking wrap love."

Obviously taken a back by the foul-mouthed outburst and outrageous sexism, Lowe delivered a fully justified punt to the crotch of Now, annihilating his groinal region. The Middlesbrough board of directors will now surely be weary of a sanctions from the Soccer Manager Football Association as a result of their managers actions.

Middlesbrough take on Swansea City at 8pm this evening at the Riverside Stadium, and it's live on ESPN 8

My first team will only have 18 players:nervous:

I'll probably have to call everyone back if I have a couple of injuries.
 
I'll play my strongest XI today against Birmingham. Let's see how it goes.
 
Who is Norwich? Gone for two of my transfer targets that I bid for this morning.
 
Arsenal 3-0 Birmingham City

R.VAN PERSIE 15
T.WALCOTT 18
Y.GERVINHO 84

Maybe I'll have to change to a 4-4-2, my midfield is not getting any 10's.
 
Who is Norwich? Gone for two of my transfer targets that I bid for this morning.

I am Norwich. I need players in the same position as well. Although, I will withdraw my bids if you want me to.
 
Phew! Only a 2-0 loss in a game that looked like it was fairly even all things considering. All my players got a 7 apart from Steele in goal who got a 5, so GK might be my weak link...

I might sound like an arse but I would prefer if you withdrew them of course :lol:
