"Mighty, mighty Middlesbrough!"

Can always remember this match, for different reasons. The Family and I (6 of us) had flown to Benidorm that day and we went out to see the match in the “Rose and Crown” bar. When Bamford scored, us (and the other Boro fans and most neutrals) went crazy. It gets to injury time and I am purring inside, getting ready to deliver some great news when… Kike scores! The pub erupts again, except me, who has my head in my hands. ”What’s up with you” they all ask as they are dancing around. I had a tenner on Boro to win 1.0 at 50/1! It’s the first time I never celebrated a Boro goal. We still had a great time in Benidorm though!
I had Bamford to score first and Boro to win 1-0 i would have won £2k or £2.5k I think. I was gutted but I was at the game and still celebrated Kike's goal although it hurt. I still got some money for the Bamford goal.
