Fans demand answers as West Brom vs Middlesbrough is branded most boring game in TV history

We knew. We all knew.

As soon as we looked up the Sunday games and saw West Brom vs Middlesbrough was the 1.30pm kick off, we knew it was never going to be a cracker. But even our worst fears were nothing as to how boring the match actually became. With just two shots on target in the whole of the first half the game was peak Pulisball. Tony P's side managed to suck any and all excitement, thrill, entertainment or enjoyment out of the game, making fans wonder whey they bothered at all. Plenty took to Twitter to voice their dissatisfaction - and the head of scheduling at Sky Sports came in for a fair bit of stick as well.
