The tickets look to be going fast according to this , should be near a sell-out :

It's going to be interesting to see how the squad react to todays result, and also performance. This can easily turn into a tricky tie, Boro unlike other teams in this division have players that can Punish you, Kitson and Johnson. However as we have already seen, they are easily broken at the other end if put under pressure. This is a game where Hughton cannot go for the centre midfield of Smith & Butt, but will do of the basis of experience in similar games. I think the wingers and Nolan will be what dictates if we are victoriouse or not. If they are on form and having a good day, with freedom etc then I can see them creating enough for our strikers to miss plenty but still outscore Boro.

They're better away than at home, will be tight I think. 2-1 to us or 2-2.

Obviously won't be. I just really hope he doesn't start Butt.
