Review:
Continuing a great run of form, we took the game to Boro for the full 90 minutes. Dawson was ridiculously fouled in the first half meaning he had to go off early but a Lolley drive into the top corner and another Lewis Grabban goal meant we fully desreved this one. Robinson was sent for a second yellow for diving, but the Leicester ref was the cynical one today.
