Bishop Starts at Boro
Saturday, 14th Mar 2015 11:22

Teddy Bishop replaces Richard Chaplow in an otherwise unchanged Town side ahead of this lunchtime’s live Sky game at Middlesbrough (KO 12.15pm).

Bishop, man of the match in the Blues' 2-0 home win against the Teessiders in December, is set to start in the centre of midfield with Jay Tabb moving to the left and Jonny Parr to the right.

Dean Gerken, whose wife gave birth yesterday, continues in goal with Bartosz Bialkowski on the bench with Paddy Kenny also having made the trip.

Chaplow drops to the bench alongside Kevin Bru, who is back after his knee injury. Stephen Hunt travelled having recovered from his hamstring problem but is not in the 18, but David McGoldrick remained in Suffolk but is likely to be in the squad for the home game against Bolton on Tuesday.

Middlesbrough: Konstantopoulos, Kalas, Ayala, Gibson, Friend, Leadbitter, Clayton, Adomah, Reach, Bamford, Vossen. Subs: Ripley, Woodgate, Forshaw, Nsue, Whitehead, Tomlin, Kike.

Town: Gerken, Chambers (c), Mings, Smith, Berra, Skuse, Bishop, Parr, Tabb, Murhy, Sears. Subs: Bialkowski, Clarke, Anderson, Chaplow, Bru, Varney, Wood. Referee: Mike Jones (Chester).

Can't blame german for first goal...mings didn't follow the runner..basic. Bishop looking lively and we have been close to scoring a second with last gasp blocks and the post coming to borough rescue. Next goal massive..fancy us to get it

Ver good first half. Proof that Bishop has to start every game now. Pure quality.

As good as we were first half we have been very poor second half. Sorry but I don't see this team getting many more points. Creativity is non existent this half.

While we continue to play nice guy Skuse in the team we will lose. There must be more aggression in our team and forward movement to gain the upper hand. Where are the goals coming from when the only person to score is Murphy! We cannot keep expecting him to score and win our matches. One goal is not enough when our defence is leaking goals like a sieve.
