Incrementally build, and sign 1 or 2 players to ensure our attacking capability is enhanced. Build-up play is fantastic but without end product we'll continue to only see slow and steady progress. Enough there for us to take the next step with those improvements and another year's development in...

1986 badge but with 1876 date for a corporate badge, MFC lion on kit. Same as Liverpool do with the liver bird.

We at least sort of clicked within a few weeks that Lee Miller was gash and turfed him out to Carlisle. More than can be said for Boyd, for instance.

Caleb Folan? I'm pretty sure he only played 15 minutes when WBA tonked us 5-0. Marcus Bent far far poorer that season. Genuinely remember a one on one situation against QPR (who Bent had been on loan at earlier that season) where he genuinely froze on the ball and appeared to have zero clue what...

Well aware of this, doesn't negate my point. Without his contribution, we would not have a football club to support.

Get a grip. Saved us as a club 38 years ago, and has been our lifeline ever since. I would much rather hedge my bets on Steve Gibson than a Johnny come lately charlatan trying to asset strip the club. Proud to support a club owned by a Boro fan who wants us to succeed just as much as anyone else.

No need to be bitter. He looked quality and I couldn't be happier for the lad. Proud that such a talented boy was able to play a part in the history of this football club.

Didn't Branca take us to court for what he perceived to be our medical team effectively ending his career?

Doesn't make it alright. Good people management is when you bring people on a journey with you, rather than working them into the ground then expecting gratitude when you give them the cold shoulder. I look at the likes of Brighton, Villa, etc, who celebrate the successes of talents who've gone...

Also made us back ten times what we paid him with that save against Man City alone.

Don't think the academy setup, which was honed by Dave Parnaby and Ron Bone and has carried through post-their time at the club, is the issue. It's a first team specific issue, it seems.

Don't forget Downing on Undr The Cosh and Schwarzer's comments previously about the club too. Bernie as well. Get the feeling there's almost a chip on the club's shoulder if ex players make a name at the expense of the club. Strange, really.

Idea behind it, especially with Spearing at Liverpool and Olly Lancashire at Southampton is that they're examples of players who went through that youth setup 15-20 years ago and experienced varying levels of success as a result of that. They're now coming higher up the pyramid to bestow that...

Genuinely shameful. Club hasn't learned its lesson from ending his career 20 years ago, and likely only sent an invite in when he admitted the impact of not being able to play in the final so publicly. Loved Christie as a player and without injury he could've been a Boro great. The club seems...

Imagine spending your career doping only to be considered a waste of potential before being caught. Attitude of Zlatan, potential of Makelele, ability of Pogba.

Reynolds should've done further time for what he did to that football club. A genuine tragedy befell football on Teesside when Darlo went under, and football in the region has yet to recover from that loss - you only have to look at history repeating itself at Hartlepool to see that.

The greatest day in our history.

Farcical that we sold Pears for so little. Finally becoming the keeper youth coaches thought he'd become, couldn't be happier for the lad.

Just bring back "We've got Tony Mowbray" to the tune of Bad Manners, that we used to sing when he was gaffer.
