Yeah I know, quite a shock that Boro are in the lead, isn't it?

And also the penalty scorer.

I'd just enjoy it, there's been thin pickings for Boro this season...
Charlton don't play 'til tomorrow, when hopefully we'll defeat Walsall (sorry Lois...)
There's still another 45 minutes or so for us.
I'd never noticed that Walsall were in League 1.

I was wondering why you were playing them until I looked it up...

I would like to get out of the bottom three.

That requires the team(s) below us to get less points than us and also requires the teams just above the drop zone (such as Ipswich) to also pick up less points than us...

This looks like 'new owners - want to do things their way, and 'their way' doesn't include having Allardyce in their plans'. Another rather unjust sacking, in my opinion.
