Changing Times 12,218 Posted March 13, 2020 Share Posted March 13, 2020 (edited) Given that there won't be any football, for a little while at least, I wondered if a thread like this could be worthwhile for those who still want their Boro fix? It's not to be confused with the Erimus on this day thread. It's just a thread to talk about things in Boro's past, get some vids up and that kind of thing. It can be anything, favourite seasons, favourite games, worst seasons/games, memorable games for you personally, great games in Boro's history, whatever really. If it's a daft idea or nobody is interested then feel free to delete the thread mods 👍 1 Link to post Share on other sites
wilsoncgp 9,230 Posted March 13, 2020 Share Posted March 13, 2020 (edited) I've just randomly remembered a game from Mogga's first full season, Cardiff 2-3 Boro. Cardiff were on a great unbeaten run and we turned them over at their own ground to leapfrog them. I remember the game because one of my favourite players of the time scored a pretty sweet goal; Faris Haroun chesting down a lofted Arca ball in the box and slotting home for the winner. https://www.bbc.co.uk/sport/football/16124009 Video of the goal, if it doesn't skip to it automatically highlight starts at 55 seconds: I think it was a rare game I managed to watch live at Uni, maybe that's another reason it stands out. 2 Link to post Share on other sites

That I can find, anyway. Link to post Share on other sites
Uwe 3,543 Posted March 13, 2020 Share Posted March 13, 2020 The best 15:27 any Boro fan can spend. And if you don’t shed a tear you’re dead inside 💀 Link to post Share on other sites
Denzel Zanzibar 6,931 Posted March 14, 2020 Share Posted March 14, 2020 Beating the "Invincibles" (Yes I know it wasn't their full first team playing but even so, it was the only home defeat for Arsenal that season!) Stunning them in the second leg at The Riverside: And then of course, going on to win the Trophy. Lovely stuff. (Not my words, the words of Shakin' Stevens.) 1 Link to post Share on other sites
Old Codger 3,039 Posted March 14, 2020 Share Posted March 14, 2020 (edited) A golden oldie featuring a proper winger, a real striker and a massacre of the "Cockney" $*!*%...........those were the days, my friends.......in the end, even the commentator stopped being biased...and the sight of Stan next to their centre-backs still makes me smile Edited March 14, 2020 by Old Codger spelling 1 Link to post Share on other sites

Downsouth 6,175 Posted March 14, 2020 Share Posted March 14, 2020 I was at the Highbury game what a feeling despite against a weakened team Link to post Share on other sites
smogsterking the Inspirati 2,453 Posted March 14, 2020 Share Posted March 14, 2020 I think Forshaws goal was the goal that got us promoted as dropped points could have given Brighton the advantage for the rest of the season. It's probably the most I have celebrated a Boro goal bar the Basel/Steaua games. It's just a shame we managed to Boro up the next few seasons and find ourselves where we are. 2 Link to post Share on other sites
