    Spare Adult Hull Ticket for Sale

    Hi RiversideRed. I'll take it if it's still available. I'll be travelling up from Nottingham for the Swansea match so could you meet you outside the ground on Saturday. Let me know.

    Positives

    Found a good parking spot at the bottom of Stanley Matthews Way which missed all the post-match traffic and I was back home in Nottingham just after quarter past six!

    Can you see us beating Leicester?

    This thread has really cheered me up! Not! Oh well, at least it's only £9 return from Nottingham and a short train ride. Setting off soon and UTB anyway!

    First ever Middlesbrough game

    I remember that one. Last home game of the season? Willie Maddren's debut...as a striker and he scored I think. And someone called Alf Arrowsmith (there's a name from a football story in a 1960s comic!) scored the winner with a header at the Holgate End. Mind you, he had played for Liverpool...

    First ever Middlesbrough game

    21st September 1963, Boro 2 Leyton Orient 0. 1'6d (7.5p in new money! ) to go in the Boys End at Ayresome Park. Ian Gibson scored both ...but I had to look it up as I'd have been a very advanced 9 year old with 20:20 vision if I'd seen and remembered that!

    Forest v Bristol City

    Nah! Wembley bound are Forest! 😜 You Reds! Went tonight and Bristol City looked very useful. Good of Forest to try to tire them out for us though. 😉

    What point do you stop watching / leave

    There’s been a few times in 60 years of watching that it’s been tempting to leave early …..but you don’t do it, do you? Worth staying till the end tonight, even if a few around me had cleared off, just to see the goal and be part of that fantastic away support at the end. Boro team and Carrick...

    Live game on Welsh channel now

    Amwythig is apparently Welsh for Shrewsbury. Weird that. Don’t ask me how. I used Google translate. But as I can’t get the English commentary on red button for some reason, I can start learning Welsh! 😁

    Boro 2 Leyton Orient 0, 21st September 1963

    60 years ago today, in the Boys End at Ayresome Park, I saw my first Boro match. Two goals from Ian Gibson and we won! A wide eyed, optimistic 9 year old, I knew glory and success was only a matter of time for my home town team. Didn't quite turn out like that! 11 years before I saw us in the...

    U21`s rating tonight: Max Howells 9.5/10 Top Man.

    Good assessment roofie! I was particularly impressed with Hannah. A young Boro team doing well against a Forest side starting with experience in Toffolo, Niakhate, Mighten and Biancone.
