Boro losing 3-2 at home to Derby County

Loved Mick Kennedy (RIP) during his short time at the Boro, he scored both our goals in this fixture his final Boro goals on his 22nd birthday as we suffered our first home defeat of the year
Big Mal gad certainly done a good job in his rescue act saving us from the dreaded drop & whatever would we face

This was also to be Kevin Beatties final game of 5 in a Boro shirt when he replaced Joe Bolton in the 2nd half & the only game he played in which we lost

We didnt lose a game when he started
