Former Ayresome Angel Ian Waller set off on 12 June last year to cycle the 1200 miles to Lake Garda in Italy to raise money to support Alzheimer's Society. Setting off from his home in Marton, with his two new kneecaps, the journey took him 19 days via Dover and Paris (at the time of the worst...

As much as the Chelsea mauling was a real sobering affair, as things stand, I’m rather positive about Boro right now. Of course, missing out on Wembley is a blow, but the fact we were even in with a shout as we entered the 2ndleg at Stamford Bridge is ridiculous. Not half as ridiculous as some...

Rosedene Nurseries, which has 10 settings across Tees Valley and North Yorkshire, welcomed families across the region to a family fun day, featuring a guest appearance from Middlesborough mascot, Roary the Lion. Children from all the settings headed to the Herlingshaw Centre in Normanby to play...

And so it all comes crashing down. Not on the crisp turf of Wembley, as perhaps seemed the stronger possibility, but at fortress Riverside. It seemed like a statistical improbability. Not only had we not failed to score in a single game there in Michael Carrick’s tenure as Middlesbrough...

This one probably won’t make us many friends, but here goes… Steve Gibson should do the right thing and drop the club’s legal action against today’s visitors. From the outside looking in, this messy episode is an unnecessary act of kicking another club when it’s down and it reflects poorly on...

So I’ve heard those words ” You have cancer ” ………….. then a pause from the Nurse. And then came the ” BUT!” But its not serious” , she said. Now I had not left my story at the point last week, deliberately to make light of the situation and or make people think I was being flippant , it was...

ATTENDING THE FOUNDATION So it’s my first time attending and I’ve been asked if I would like a Cup of tea or Coffee. Now, as I mentioned earlier a Psychiatrist had deduced only a few months before that having something as basic as that gesture would be therapeutic for me. Someone would be...

I’ve started here because I’m trying to convey why I even decided to attend the Foundation in the first place. If I’m brutally honest it was because of abject unadulterated loneliness! My loneliness was so bad that it was destroying my life and eating me away. I’d reached a crossroads in my life...
