Up the Boro!
Middlesbrough Football Club, aptly nicknamed the Boro play in the English Premier League. Our home ground is the Riverside Stadium in Middlesbrough, a small town located in the northeast of England, along the banks of the very impressive River Tees. Boro are Top Dogs of the Northeast and have been for over ten years now. Managed by Gareth Southgate, since June 2006 he has been making strides to rebuild a team with a more youthful outlook. The England Youth Teams are chocabloc with home grown lads from the Boro. The Chairman, Steve Gibson has been the major driving fource behind the Club since 1986.
The Club won the League Cup in 2004, our first major trophy since our formation way back in 1876. Under Steve McClaren, Boro reached the Final of the UEFA Cup in 2006, losing to Sevilla. But not after pulling off the greatest back-to-back comebacks of all time in the Quarter and Semi Finals against Basel and Staua. It almost seemed like there was nothing stopping us.

In the second leg of the UEFA Cup Semi Final at the Riverside, Boro to a man somehow conspired to concede two further goals to add to the other goal we let in in the first leg. Just when you thought the Boro were dead and buried, we went up the other end and scored four goals in one of the most amazing and historic comebacks in Boro's history.

Jeff Stelling, a Hartlepool lad tells it like it is when he has a go at the BBC for slagging off the small town of Middlesbrough, Teesside following their damning report detailing the worst areas in the UK. Cheers, Jeff for setting the record straight. Come to think of it, Hartlepool could well be 20th on the list. ;)
