WEST Brom extended their unbeaten run when battering Boro in a top of the table
FORMER Boro boy Chris Brunt returned to haunt his old club with a deadly first-half double to set five-star Albion on their way to a comfortable victory at promotion rivals Middlesbrough.
Sean St Ledger was handed his first start and home debut as he replaced Seb Hines in a starting line-up which had no Gary O'Neil or Caleb Folan. The latter started on the bench just a couple of days after signing on loan from Hull City. O'Neil was missing with hamstring problems.
