Very pleasing to see palarse beaten by Boro in front of a scant 11k northern crowd last night, so not much extra dosh for them to spend in January. These league cup games are really reserve fixtures at this stage in the competition, so truly amazing at the huge crowds at Chelsea, Arsenal and West Ham. I wondered how many Rangers pulled in Scotland for an average fixture for them against Kilmarnock; 49,279! Wow! Not bad for a supposedly crap league. Then, being forever one for the under-dog I checked Livingstone's crowd on the same night; 1,476!!! A bit like having Accrington Stanley in the premier League. Astonishing!
