George Boateng is a great player, great athlete and I am sure a great family man. We wish him all the very best at Hull and fell sure that he is an absolutely fantastic signing for Hull, but quite why Gareth did not fancy him is beyond us. He has been our BEST player for half a decade.
Good luck to George and Hull FC ........ Boro fans M&C.
