Jonny Drury caught up with Albion fans after they watched their side beaten 2-0 - in Tony Mowbray's first game back at the club.
Mowbray was eyeing a winning return to the club, and his side got off to a good start against Boro.
But they fell behind to a long range strike from Hayden Hackney in the first half, before rallying and coming on strong early in the second period.
But they didn't make pressure count and conceded a second late on as Ben Doak sealed the win for Boro.

00:00The second coming of Tony Mowbray hasn't gone how we wanted it to.
00:10No.
00:11What do you make of it?
00:12It was way too easy, to be fair.
00:13The first half, Borer practically wrapped that game up.
00:17It was just too easy.
00:18We were in control for the first 20 minutes, yet Middlesbrough, still, no problems, they'll
00:24clear that ball out every time, no matter how much possession we had, we didn't look
00:29a threat.
00:30It was just really, a real, real ball watch, to be honest, and, yeah, I'm bitterly disappointed,
00:38to be honest.
00:39Really, really packed it up.
00:40Well, at the end of the day, it's his first game in charge of us, he's only been at the
00:41training ground a few days, to be fair to him, which will give him a benefit of doubt,
00:42he's been there a few days, he hasn't really been able to judge the system that he wants
00:43to play in.
00:44It's a boring result to come away from Borer with, but, it's just a game.

04:45It's a game.
04:46It's a game.
04:47Don't really cut the mustard for me, effort-wise as well.
04:51I mean, a lot of people slate Wallace.
04:53I think he's doing his job well.
04:55He's putting 100% in.
04:56I'm not going to name names, but there are certain players in there that just don't seem
05:01like they're running their socks off.
05:03And that's what annoys a lot of us Albion fans, especially as well when we went to Bournemouth.
05:09I think that was shown a lot there as well.
05:12Some players aren't giving 100%.
05:15I think realistically, as Albion fans, we have to accept that this season we're going
05:20to end up mid-table.
05:22Next season we can potentially push on, but I'm gutted.
05:29I'm angry and I'm going to keep it as cool as I can at the minute because I don't want
05:36to look like an idiot.
05:38I think that's the best way to put it.
05:40No, to be fair, we do need a few new players.
05:43End of the day, we don't have an out-and-out goalscorer or a striker.
05:48And we've been linked with that El-Hamadi or something from Iqbal Switch.
05:53But obviously, if we're not going to get him, then we've got to go in for someone else.
05:58That Isaac Price has got to be confirmed as soon as he can.
06:01Because at the end of the day, I think he's going to be leading in this game.
06:04He's going to be leading this team.
06:06Because Swift ain't the player that you need him to be.
06:10You need someone going forward that's going to provide us a bit of goalscoring for it.
06:15And Swift does not do that for us.
06:17Yes, I do. I think it massively does.
06:19I think we've probably known that since about September, October, when things started going
06:24a bit south.
06:25When we started to stop getting results, I thought we all kind of knew that the bench
06:28is really weak and that we've got no game-changers.
06:32But I think if you look at it, you don't want to put pressure on new signings, especially
06:37when they've not actually been confirmed.
06:39I know Hamadi and Price will benefit us.
06:44But I think we've got a week and a half out the window.
06:50We're going to get two players in, and I don't think that's going to be enough.
06:53I don't want to write off the season, because you can never do that in January.
07:01But if I'm honest, I think it's looking like mid-table.
07:06If Blackburn or Watford really fall apart, we could sneak in.
07:11But I think it's looking like another season's championship for me.
