I've been away for a week, no mobile, no TV (aside from England games) and no internet. Any news - that is apart from beating Boro?

A quick summary of a week's worth of Toon news would be very welcome if anyone has the time or inclination!

Thanks in anticipation!

No major news. Looks like we're signing French Centre Back Distin from PSG on loan for the season, with a 4M option if we take them up on it. Continuation of the spat between Bobby and Nobby about his swanning off to Peru when he said he'd give up international football, but as Peru are now out it seems that's blown over. That's it really, mainly news has been about England, althoug Dabizas was in the papers saying he was trying to forget about the Greek-Finland game and couldn't wait for Boro - he'll be smiling tonight.
