Purely by chance I found my recollections of every Rugby League season that Castleford Tigers were involved in from 1926 up to 2017, much like I did f...
Trust Martin to trump my ace! It is also regarded as William Shakespeare’s birthday whether true or not. However I can’t believe that by the tone of y...
Today is St George’s Day, but did you know that although he is England’s patron saint that he was actually born in Turkey? According to legend he was...
Thanks Malcolm for that article in the Northern Echo about Josh Coburn, very interesting indeed! Sadly a bad day for our neighbours Hartlepool Unite...
Biggest game of the season for Hartlepool today, and like Jarkko I hope that Boro fans will turn up at the Vic to support Pools but I doubt it as Sund...
But results don’t always follow previous encounters. In 2015 Boro won 1-0 at Carrow Road albeit with an own goal, but a few weeks later were outplayed...
Can Boro win at Luton, or does it really matter in the great scheme of things? As long as Boro finish 3rd or 4th they will have home advantage in the ...
Surprisingly Boro ONLY scored 77 goals in Jack Charlton’s promotion season of 1973/74, the main reason being that although they were top of the league...
Why would Boro fans want their side to get automatic promotion (not that it was ever likely to happen anyway), and deprive themselves of another Wemb...
Now that I have updated all 4 divisions of the English Football League I have now discovered that only Ipswich Town have scored more goals than Boro s...
David Wheater of course!
That’s much better! When was the last time Redcar produced such a good player?
I’m not too surprised that Boro are losing at halftime. I did state a couple of months ago that I thought Hull City might reach the playoffs. Of cours...
I concur with Andy’s assessment about Hull City and that Boro should win, but as Michael Carrick has often stated no win in this division can be taken...
Sorry about the double posts, but have just learned how to enlarge my iPad keyboard.
Unusual contrasts in the Bundesliga and French Championet this weekend. Only 3 positive results in the former with 6 drawn matches, yet not a single d...

Warrington v Wigan game not living up to all the hype so have switched over to watching Boro.
By now everyone will have guessed that my favourite colour is yellow, the harbinger of springtime which the Italians, Spanish and Portuguese all refer...
Now reverting to my nostalgic mood when Norwich City were first promoted from the Third Division South to the Second Division in 1960, a breath of fre...
Glad to see Bob that you now appear to be on the road to recovery. Whilst I’m still in a nostalgic mood my thoughts go back to Enid’s uncle who was a...
Well done Jarrko for anticipating that the answer to Dormo’s puzzle was about cricket! There were other strange incidents that occurred in 1910 also ...
As per Dormo’s quiz question I offered an alternative answer which concerned Boro. Initially I thought of Boro v Bradford Park Avenue, but that didn’t...
Now for a bit of nostalgia regarding FA Amateur Cup Finals staged at Ayresome Park and also the strength of the Northern League in its heyday. Apart ...
Boro are certainly due a win today as they haven’t won any of their last 7 matches on Easter Monday losing 5 of them, although they have won 4 of thei...
Terrific win for Leicestershire yesterday, but catches win matches and that was the main reason why Yorkshire lost - dropped catches! This defeat was ...
A common sense point of view Andy on what may befall us, though I still think another season in the Championship would suit Boro better in the long ru...
@ KP in Spain I agree that for Boro to gain promotion this season would be disastrous. Far better to rebuild our defence in the close season and pl...
@ Martin But there should be NO counter view. Yesterday was called Good Friday for the good of mankind whether you like it or not. Although we quite...
I can’t believe the love fest from Michael Carrick last night! Boro were never in the same class as Burnley and at no time did I think that Boro would...
