Match Day Thread Middlesbrough v Hull City

Alf Ramsey stuck with form over the greatest goalscorer English football has ever known.
Alex Ferguson dropped Jim Leighton and put Les Sealey in goal for the FA Cup Final replay.
Steve Bruce played Alex Bruce instead of ginger Mcshane in the FA Cup Final.

All correct decisions. Does Phelan have the balls to make the right call?
The Jak should be back.

... Jak

Elmo Dawson Harry Robbo

Snodgrass Hudd Jake Clucas Henriksen

Diomande

How is Jake's injury? If not Meyler in there. We're going to have to dig in on Monday night.

Win and with other favourable results we could go up to 14th. Lose and with a few other bad results we could be rock bottom.

Draw.

 

In 1801, Middlesbrough was a small farm with a population of just 25. Joseph Pease of Darlington needed a port for his coal ships, so created 'Port Darlington' and brought in Irish labourers to create what became Middlesbrough. This increase was fuelled in 1841when Henry Bolckow and John Vaughan of Wales, discovered ironstone deposits in the Eston Hills.

The name 'Middlesbrough' predates the settlement, and possibly relates to an abbey located halfway between Whitby and Durham. It is 'brough' rather than 'borough' due to a spelling error when it was given its charter in 1853.

Middlesbrough was the first major British town and industrial target to be bombed during the Second World War.

2 Yorks – The 2nd Battalion The Yorkshire Regiment (Green Howards) infantry regiment are very strongly associated with Middlesbrough. Originally formed at Dunster Castle, Somerset in 1688 to serve King William of Orange, later King William III.

During the 1970s, actor Terry Scott, of Terry and June, managed to drive his car off the end of the Transporter Bridge and was only saved from the murky waters of the River Tees by the bridge’s safety net

Boro’s old Ayresome Park ground featured in the 35th edition of the Guinness Book of Records for being the home of the largest reported advertising hoarding, which was painted on the roof of the North Stand by sponsor Heritage Hampers.

The Dock Clock Tower at Middlehaven Dock in Middlesbrough has four sides, but only three clock faces. because employers did not want the dockers to clock-watch.

The Little Theatre in Linthorpe was the first new theatre built in England after World War II.

Dorman Long of Middlesbrough are responsible for bridges all over the world, including theTyne Bridge, Menai Suspension bridge and the Sydney Harbour Bridge.

In 1889, then amateur Middlesbrough FC tried to join the league by joining with Middlesbrough Ironopolis and playing at the Paradise Ground. They took Accrington's place, but it only lasted a season due to financial problems, but beat teams like Small Heath (now Birmingham City), and Ardwick (now Manchester City) and ended up 11th of 15 teams.

Middlesbrough were one of the founder members of the Premier league, and the first club to be relegated from it. (among others, obviously)

The Riverside was the first stadium built to comply with the Taylor report on all seater stadiums.

Middlesbrough were the first football club in the world to launch its own TV channel – Boro TV.

Middlesbrough FC regularly top the table in community work, with the club being involved in many schemes and initiatives to assist and support the local community.

 

They were the first club to feature in a live satellite TV broadcast. Against some team called Hull City.

 

If the world was going to be given an enema, Middlesbrough is were they'd stick the tube.

 

Did it affect the gate?

 

If you recall what the game was then you will know the answer to that.

 

There's some really mucky women
In Middlesbrough and I don't mean
B/O. I think there's more women
That enjoy anal in Middlesbrough

So I'm led to believe .......
They do like a bit o chocolate on there

Anal sex by post 7!! Thats got to be the record for an MDT??

 

Source?

 

Brown, obviously.

 

Could be red if you don't do it properly.

 

Maybe the red is the reason you're doing the brown?

 

Some previous confrontations...

 

Always enjoy watching the goals from the 4-3. Due to frank and open exchanges of opposing views between City and Boro fans taking place on the Kempton only saw a couple of them at the time.

 

One is reminded of the old snooker joke about making some whore bend over, then looking this way and that, assessing the situation, judging angles and distances, chalking your cue, getting in close for a good look, standing up again and walking around the table to get the view from the other side, rubbing your chin, making a side of the mouth comment to an appreciative audience, sharing a joke with Len Ganley, before announcing that you don't know whether to pot the pink or the brown.

 

Always a hard decision going for an easy pink or the more difficult brown.

Anyways, for you aural pleasure.

City will get a result come Monday night.

 

I was all ready to shine my shoes and head for the Riverside but I'm working in Germany next week so I'll miss it. Having seen signs of a footballer in Henriksen against the Mags I'm hoping he kicks on in this one.

 

Teesside Tin Tin
