Your Top 3 moments.

The 1-0 defeat to Wigan in 2007 when Yakubu downed tools has to be up there šŸ˜…


Funnily enough, when I was googling it just now to try and find the year, this article came up. Do you really think the yak was actually about 40 at the time??






Three years later, at the height of his powers, he joined Everton where David Moyes said obliquely: ā€œHe is 25 - but it is a Nigerian 25.ā€
 
- League cup 2004

- Juninho's debut, Brazil's number 10 was playing for Boro šŸ¤Æ

- The moment Ravanelli scored at Wembley (shame 15 mins later was my worst moment) but finally seeing a Boro player score at Wembley in a major final was special.
 
You've already picked 3.
Steau and Basel can't count as one moment surely?

Almost impossible to pick only 3 moments.
At the moment I'm going for:
- Final whistle after the goalless draw against Wigan in 87.
- Terry Cochrane scoring the equaliser against Wolves in the 81 QF.
- Ravanelli scoring at Wembley.

I'll probably change them tomorrow. Or in an hour.
I've already changed to man City away getting into Europe.
 
Also not picking the obvious.

1) Roma Away
2) City away (qualifying for Europe) Schwarzer penalty save
3) 3-3 at OT 97, first away game and only away game with my Grandad

He obviously wasnā€™t 40 but I wouldnā€™t be surprised if he was pushing 30 with us. It was interesting watching him play for Coventry a few years back - meant to be 33/34 officially but he couldnā€™t move.

Thereā€™s a video of him if you look of him literally not moving for 2 minutes. (Bit like the Wigan performance)
 
1. Seeing the padlock taken off the Ayresome Gates at Ayresome Park.

2. Banik Ostrava, at The Riverside, began our Boro on a European Tour adventure.

3. Ravanelli`s first game v Liverpool and that hat trick.(y)
 
1. Steau Bucharest with my missus pregnant with our first child.
2. Play off final my two kids at Trafalgar Square screaming for the boro to the pub across the road,
3. Away at Man Utd in the cup.. sacked off my mates wedding.. friends since 11 hasnā€™t spoke to me since.
