I was at that 5-0 win and Brunt's goal was a great piece of control. It wasn't quite from the halfway line, but as soon as he sidefooted it, even the Boro goalie knew it was in. I was sat incognito with Boro fans, the only ticket I could get, sitting in among my fellow north-easterners, giving my Geordie accent an airing, and as they left 10 minutes from the end, I shrugged my shoulders and said I might as well stay and see the end. And to cap it all, the Baggies fans behind the goal were taunting the Boro fans and giving them grief, and the Boro fans had to be held back by police. It was a more comprehensive win than the 5-1 at the Custard Bowl. Happy days.
