Of course you are right, but I think we can get a little excited after dismantling West Ham in the manner we did. Likewise, Boro haven't had a completely disastrous start and may well be sniffing around the play offs in due course. We're both the sort of teams that could swap seats at the top...
This is correct. Swap Boro's season last year with ours, and subsequently both teams start to this season, and who comes out on top? I will happily abuse the ****, but I'm not sad about how history panned out.
