MIDO is up and running again after finally easing his way back into the firing line.

The big Egyptian striker worked his way through 45 minutes of action for Boro reserves against Newcastle United last night.
Now Gareth Southgate is further assessing the striker with a view to pencilling in his first team return.
But it looks unlikely that Mido will be ready to play at Mansfield Town on Saturday - while even Tuesday’s game against Wigan could come too early.
Southgate, who watched last night’s match at Billingham Synthonia from the main stand, told the Evening Gazette: “It was the next step up from training for Mido and it was good to see him back on the pitch again.
“The plan was always to give him just the 45 minutes.
“We have to make sure that there is no reaction, and then we’ll decide what the next step will be.”


Even so, Southgate remains uncommitted about when Mido may be ready to play in the Premier League.
The bottom line is that the manager will not consider playing the Egyptian until his fitness is 110 per cent.
Southgate said: “He needs training and he needs football.
“I can’t say that this stage when he will be back in the first team squad because he is being assessed day to day at the moment.
“Whenever he does return he will give us a lift but it has to be the right time.
“We have to bring him back at the right speed.”
Mido was last in Premier League action in the 2-0 home by Chelsea at the Riverside Stadium on October 20.
He had been feeling problems is his abdominal area for some time and a stress fracture of the pubic bone was diagnosed, which initially needed plenty of rest followed by a gradual build-up of fitness again.
Boro paid a price for throwing Mido into the action despite not having had a proper pre-season, and that’s why Southgate is prepared to take no risks this time around.
If Boro are to start reaping some of the investment in the striker then they need him fully toned up before he can be exposed to 90 minutes of hurly burly activity in the league.
Boro made a late decision to include Mido in last night’s game and he seemed to cope with it reasonably well.
He had few chances to make a major impact but was denied a goal in the 23rd minute when Newcastle goalkeeper Fraser Forster flung himself across the goal to keep out a 15 yards piledriver from the Egyptian forward.
Five minutes later Mido also headed straight at Forster from a Jonathan Grounds cross.
After completing the first half, Mido was put through some extra fitness work on the pitch during the half-time interval.

Mido is back , and played for 45 min

MIDO played 45 minutes as Boro's Reserves were soundly beaten and had a man sent-off tonight, writes GORDON COX from Billingham.
The plan was always to ease Mido, who hasn't played since October, back into action to test a problem with a pubic bone. It was a gentle introduction for the Egyptian who will now be assessed with regards to possible participation in Saturday's FA Cup tie at Mansfield.
After a steady start to the game Boro created the first chance with Tom Craddock bringing a save from Fraser Forster with a drive from six yards.

Aliadiere can’t wait for Mido return

FRENCH forager Jeremie Aliadiere admitted today that the return of his fellow Boro striker Mido can’t come quickly enough.
Mido was originally pencilled into the squad for today’s trip to Blackburn Rovers, but has still not achieved peak fitness following his stress fracture of the pubic bone.
However, Mido might be back for next week’s FA Cup tie at Mansfield Town, and Aliadiere admitted that the Egyptian centre-forward had been conspicuous by his absence over the last three months.

Aliadiere said: “We have missed Mido while he has been injured so it’s good to see that he is very close to coming back. He is a good player and he is a strong player in the Premier League.
“We saw when he first arrived what he can give to us and so it has been disappointing that he has been injured.
“Mido is a useful player in the system that we play because we can play around him. It has been difficult playing without him.”

Mido misses out on Rovers return

MIDO has failed to win his battle to return for Boro’s Premier League clash at Blackburn Rovers tomorrow.
The Egyptian striker has been unable to achieve the fitness level necessary to be included in the squad. Mido was due to return to full training yesterday, but Boro decided not to risk rushing him too quickly and his comeback was put on hold.
