Boro didn't do any last gasp business on Deadline Day but cheeky chap Lee Tomlin did his best to provide the entertainment.

The No.10 was linked with a number of Premier League clubs in the last week of the window and although Aitor Karanka revealed he wasn't remotely interested in selling any of his star assets, that didn't stop Tomlin having some fun on Twitter.

The 26-year-old started fishing for bites early on in the evening when he tweeted: "It's snowing bad in Leicester."

And that was the just the start for the wind-up merchant who continued to tease Boro fans.

Worry not. It wasn't long before the in-form playmaker reassured Boro fans that he was going nowhere, but only after he'd received a bit of stick from concerned fans.

On the whole, most Boro fans took it in good spirit and it wasn't long before virals started doing the rounds.

Boro fan and Twitter regular @thepinkponce came up with the best of the night.

But Tomlin wasn't finished. In fact, his best was still to come.

After settling down on the transfer talk, Tomlin, clearly still on a high after his magical second half display at the Etihad when he almost scored the goal of the season, then tweeted this beauty.

At least he gave us something to talk about on an otherwise quiet deadline day.
