As a busy summer at St Andrew’s Trillion Trophy Stadium continues, Blues Talk’s Dale Moon & Callum Denning catch up with the first face through the door this summer. Experienced defender George Friend was the first signing of the Aitor Karanka era at St Andrew’s, and fresh after making his first league appearances for the Club, he gets a Blues Talk debut under his belt, too! Dale and Callum speak to George about his experience working under the Head Coach at Middlesbrough, arriving with familiar face Adam Clayton, and how he’s settled in to the Club so far since arriving in the West Midlands. And, after a promising start to the 2020/21 Sky Bet Championship campaign, the lads look back on four points taken from a possible six against two previous play-off contenders ahead of a visit from a former Blue this weekend. And finally, Dale and Callum answer the question: do they know the way to San José?

St George, friend of St Abraam On the 18th day of the Coptic month of Bashons we celebrate the life of St George, the friend to St Abraam.George, the companion of St. Abraam, was a shepherd for his father’s herd, who were saintly Christian parents. As he desired becoming a monk, he left his family when he was only fourteen years old. He went to the wilderness of St. Macarius. While he was walking on the road, the devil appeared to him in the form of an old man and said, "Your father thought that a wild beast had killed you, and he rent his garment, grieving over you. You should return to him and comfort his heart. Then return to the wilderness". George was astonished at this revelation. Saying to himself: "The Bible says: 'He who loves his father or mother more than Me is not worthy of Me.'" And when he said that, the devil became like smoke and fled from him. Immediately, the angel of the Lord in the form of a monk appeared to him, and guided him to the monastery of Abba Orion. He remained there for ten years, not eating any cooked food, fruit or wine.He then desired to live alone in the inner wilderness and went to the monastery of the Roman Saints Maximus and Domadius in Scetis. At the same time, St. Abraam arrived to the monastery. They went together to the monastery of St. Macarius and met St. Yoannis, the archpriest of Sheahat. He gave them a cell close by him to live in, which was known as the cell of Bageeg, where St. Abraam departed. Shortly after George also departed. He was seventy-two years old.Lessons from this storyWhat a comparative experience this young boy had. Having left his home at the young age of 14 years, he would not have the knowledge nor the learned discernment to know a devil from an angel - for both appeared to him in a similar form. One an elderly man, the other a monk. Only his knowledge of the Bible helped to know which was true guide and which was false prophet.In our daily lives we interact with all types of people. For business, for pleasure, during service, or a multitude of other situations. It is virtually impossible to know who would guide us correctly and who would led us astray. Most people's intentions can be figured out pretty quick, but sometimes we are often completely shocked or unprepared for a person’s intentions.Living a prayerful life, inviting God the Father into every aspect of our life is a sure fire way to make sure no ill intentions befall us. Does this mean we will not make bad mistakes? Of course not. God grants us free will. But we should be smart about our requests to God.God loved Solomon greatly for he “have not asked riches or wealth or honor or the life of your enemies, nor have you asked long life—but have asked wisdom..” (2 Chronicles 1:11) Wisdom is perhaps the greatest gift the Lord God could grant us, more so than riches, power or worldly lusts. Through wisdom we can navigate the world filled with so many temptations that are designed to literally draw us to hell. Even though they appear as minor offenses, each of them is designed to desensitize us to wrongdoing.In his innocence of the world and being raised by devout Christians, George was well prepared to repel against the temptations of the devil, using his love for his father as a trick to turn George a way from a path of piety and monastic living. But the Lord tickled the memory of George’s knowledge of the Bible and the devil was revealed.This telling of this saint’s story can help us highlight the importance of daily prayer, daily bible reading and lending our decisions on the guidance of the Lord. There is a saying, “haste makes waste”, this is true for us as well. If we hastily make decisions, they are typically being led by emotions. Don’t be in a rush to make a decision. Pause, pray and wait for the guidance of the Lord.PrayerGod bless us with wisdom in our daily life. Help to quell the rising emotions this world enrages within us, but to lean on a prayerful direction in all our decisions. May the prayers of St George and his friend St Abraam be with us all amen.

George Friend moved Middlesbrough up to fourth in the Championship as his goal earned them an unconvincing win at struggling Reading.

Boro are up to fifth in the Championship table after three wins on the bounce - but there's a lot more to come from Garry Monk's side.So says The Gazette's Boro Editor Philip Tallentire in the latest Tripe Supper podcast.He feels Boro are still some way short of hitting full flow this season.Anthony Vickers stresses the importance of Monk settling on a favoured formation, while our writers also discuss the players who had a big impact in the games against Reading, Hull and Sunderland.George Friend, Stewart Downing and Cyrus Christie are also discussed in this podcast.

Cyrus Christie notched his first Boro goal at the weekend and snatched a crucial point at Fulham in the process.It's been an impressive start to the season for the Republic of Ireland international, who's made the right-back spot his own since his summer move from Preston.But what about over at left-back?George Friend has lost his place in the side to Fabio of late and faces a battle to get back in the XI when both players are fit.Our writers talk Friend and Fabio and discuss Christie's early season form in this week's Tripe Supper podcast.

It's a defender special on this week's Tripe Supper as Middlesbrough boss Garry Monk weighs up his centre-back options ahead of Saturday's trip to Bolton.The arrival of Ryan Shotton before Deadline Day further stocked an already-strong department, and the big challenge for Monk will now be to determine the best centre-back partner (or partners) for Ben Gibson.Will Boro's best system during a hectic September include three central defenders, or just the two? We'll soon find out - but with Dael Fry's early-season form catching the eye, competition for places is as fierce as ever at the back.With the luxury of an international break to get back to top condition, can Daniel Ayala return to his top form and dislodge Boro's homegrown pairing, and what role will new boy Shotton have over the coming months?They are all topics for discussion in this week's podcast, along with the importance of Cyrus Christie and George Friend's quest to hold off Fabio at left-back.

The matches are back! The boys review the first weekend of matches in the Premier League as only they can. Zlatan gets love, George Friend's love is noticed, and Dave has little love for Arsenal's performance. Most importantly, with just one round of matches complete, the hosts try to avoid overreacting by figuring out which of the top performers are worth picking up for next week.

The FL72 Podcast was at the Football League awards as Kevin Davies picked up the prestigious Sir Tom Finney award - he gives his thoughts on Bolton's season. Emile Heskey puts the Wanderers relegation down to bad luck. The League One and League Two players of the season, Bradley Dack and Kemar Roofe, reveal what an honor the award is. David Prutton gives his thoughts on the Championship promotion race. Plus, George Friend takes on "10 to Tackle".

Surely George Friend deserves a unique chant or two? At Gazette Boro we've received this splendid recording which we thought we'd share with you all. The lyrics are reproduced below:He only cost a hundred thousand,That was daylight robbery,He should have cost a hundred millionHe is the Boro number 3.The Boro number 3,Who we all come and see.George Friend, will you marry me?(To the tune - roughly, we think - of Bad Moon Rising) For information regarding your data privacy, visit acast.com/privacy
