Mine was in March 1997. We beat Chelsea 1-0, with a goal from the little fella. I was only at the match cos I was on holiday in Durham with my mates, one of whom was a Chelsea fan. I didn't realise the team was in a relegation battle, but I loved the feverish atmosphere and I was an instant fan.

Within three months of attending my first Boro game, we'd lost two cup finals and been relegated. I've never been the same since.

Boro 4-2 Wolves 17/8/89

Slaven x2, Proctor, Davenport. 

Debuts to Alan Comfort & Trevor Putney & after this performance we Boro fans thought we were heading back to the 1st division

Thanks to a last home win of the season v the Geordies & Leeds beating Bournemouth to relegate them, survived, avoiding relegation with the skin of our teeth
