150 Years of MFC

[SmogOnTheTees]

In 2026 Boro will have existed as a football club 150 years. Do we do something to celebrate this? Or is it just a date?

My suggestions:

1. Redesign the club badge combining elements from all our past badges (except the current one).
2. Start a campaign for Gibbo to get knighted and the freedom of The Bongo. Access all areas for him. His own VIP section.
3. Build a statue of the little fella, but it's massive and he's emerging from the waters of the dock. Haven't decided if he should have his knob out yet.
4. In the Temenos sculpture, have a statue of Higgy coming out of it like he's in a water slide.
5. 150 lion statues around the Riverside - really go for it! All different sizes and poses.

Ideas?

Agree with your points

We've come along way since Jackson Ewbank scored our 1st ever goal

We should have clocked our 1,000th registered Boro player by then, 32 short so it is acheivable, my stats not the clubs

Whoever stats you go by should the player be recognised as the 1,000th debutant?

If we're one short by the 150 year anniversary, stick a shirt on Bob Mortimer and send him on.

He can leave his fishing rod behind the goal during the game

Given he will be behind most of the other players fitness-wise, I think he should be allowed to use his rod as a weapon. I now leave you to figure out what I mean by "rod".

One off home kit. Think we originally played in blue and white

Was that our first home kit? Why did they need that many buttons for the neck hole? Were heads massive in them days? Looks like a shirt one of them sad clowns would wear. Explains a lot about the past 150 years.
