[Lord Snooty]

Now then. I got a PM from St Charles Owl last week requesting an advance showing of Matchday 3 and 4 fixtures, because he's off on his jollies darn under and might not have time to get his predictions done.

I was happy to oblige, even though he did have to wait for the EFL Cup draw to be made for Matchday 4. So, if any of you are in a similar position, ie gallivanting to the other side of the world, you can put in a similar request.

Anyway, I've received his predictions, all the way from Sydney, Australia. And here they are......

Middlesbrough 3 v 1 Town
Town scorers: Ward
Boro scorers: Forss, Rogers, Lenihan
