Southgate vows to stay at Boro come what may

GARETH SOUTHGATE is determined to remain as Middlesbrough boss and prove his critics wrong even if the club is relegated tomorrow.

The Teessiders will bring down the curtain on a difficult Barclays Premier League season at West Ham knowing even victory might not keep them up.

Indeed, Boro have effectively been written off as Newcastle, Hull and Sunderland battle it out for the unwanted prize of the final place in the bottom three.
