Pretty gutted to be honest

dont really do christmas over here in Thailand so made do with homemade pork pie and christmas pud with custard I got from the Korat Chef ,,,,,, watched 20 mins of the new Rock movie on TV ... it gave me a headache so went into my record room and played Leonard Cohens New Skin LP ... read the Hugh Mcilmoyle biography and was wondering why he had to leave Boro... never said in the book .

I too loved Hughie,once read in a book somewhere he was allowed to travel from his home in Carlisle then for some reason Boro moved the goalposts.He was told he had to move closer to Middlesbrough and that was a deal breaker for him,Merry Christmas.

from his book " after 4 months of travelling i realised I had to go over there, So I moved and it was a disaster. When we moved to Middlesbrough we were unhappy. We moved to near Leicester and there was no way we could move back to Middlesbrough under the circumstances" Whats not coverered is what were the circumstances,,,There was a conversation when Hugh said he would not move back and Boro held his registration so there was a stand off. Eventually Preston came in and he went there ...
