Highlights here:

McCarthy had at least three options, plus hoofing it, in the end he picked none of them and didn't even pretend to try to save the subsequent shot. He's had a whole season and two pre-seasons until RM, if he hasn't got the hang of it by now, he never will.

Sign a decent keeper and I think we've got a good chance of staying up. Go with McCarthy and we'll beat Sheffield United's GA from last season in near-post goals alone!

I stand corrected, although I'm not sure that's an improvement on being managerless.

We don't need to have a huge step up in quality - we just need to be the fourth worst team. That's the goal for next season. Managerless Leicester and Ipswich are obviously in the mix to go down, Wolves, Forest, Everton, Brentford didn't exactly light up the league last season either. A number of teams will have points deductions too. We don't need to light up the league, and I think our cup game against Liverpool with a weakened side shows that we've got the tools to give it a decent go.

Err he was born in 2005, he should still be in primary school.

I'm always so surprised by AArmstrong's voice whenever he talks.

Gotta be one of AA's best goals this season? Lovely stuff!

Sorry, how many goals has Stewart scored?

Referee is wearing blue and white stripes under that black shirt...

Penalty bottle-job aside, we did very well with our pressing to create the chance, and Aribo did well to find Brooks who should have been rewarded with a penalty.

Absolute stonewall penalty. Referee has bottled it.

Think we should see Stewart on sooner rather than later. AA needs to be on the right wing, he's much more effective there.

Because AArmstrong has been really poor when played centrally and done very well while on the wing, he's a good runner but his hold up play is poor. We miss him when he's not out on the right, Brooks hasn't done as well as we'd hoped there. Better to play the most Che-like option we have in Mara and hope Stewart has 30 minutes in his legs, and that Che is back for the second leg.

Any streams? Struggling to find any tonight.

I'm so happy to have THB back in the middle.

Boro look terrified when Sulemana is running at them. More of that!

Armstrong! Proper striker's goal!

We look sharp, started quickly and passing well. A nice change from our usual post-international games.

Lots of Leeds/ex-Leeds players for Boro. I feel like Ayling always scores against us but I may have invented that. COYS!

If we play our best centre back at centre back, I fancy our chances!

I'm actually very impressed that he's dropped AArmstrong. KWP or Stephens at LB?

You can say that again.

Certainly gives Danny Fox a run for his money!

Who has gone off? EDIT: Rothwell, AArmstrong, Mara
