Incredible newspaper coverage from 1927 to the present day
Down by the Riverside! Reacquaint yourself with the history of Middlesbrough football club through newspaper clippings in this personalised Middlesbrough book. With coverage beginning in 1927, the year they won promotion to the First Division, this fine piece of Middlesbrough memorabilia takes you through almost a century of history, revisiting all the key moments in the Teeside club’s history, right up until the present day.
Interestingly, Middlesbrough’s two highest ever league finishes both came right before the outbreak of a World War: 3rd in 1914 and 4th in 1939. Having spent most of their existence in the top flight, it would take the Boro until 2004 to win their first major trophy, the League Cup, less than a decade after they had lost three cup finals in two years. Joseph-Desire Job and Boudewijn Zenden scored the goals as Steve McClaren’s men defeated Bolton at the Millennium Stadium. European football followed, as McClaren led his side all the way to the 2006 UEFA Cup final, beating Stuttgart and Roma along the way, before ultimately succumbing to Sevilla.
Take a look at the contents to see which historic moments are captured.

It arrived as promised abd with the added extras. E.g engraved name on book cover and certificate inside.I would definitely buy something from this seller again. Well done.

I ordered this gift for my sons 21st birthday as he is BORO mad and I was looking for something a little bit different. I received the parcel within five days of ordering which was brilliant. On opening the parcel i could not believe how big it was and the quality was just superb, i never thought it would be that good. I can't wait to give this to my son in 4 days time as i know he will love it. Don't hesitate in ordering you will not be disappointed.

This book was purchased a gift for my Dad's 65th Birthday and to be honest it was a fallback when I discovered MFC were no longer taking orders for the Boro Brick Road; this turned out to be a much better present than an engraved stone! The book covers important moments in Boro's history as far back as 1927 right up to the modern day, instantly my Dad was on a trip down memory lane, pointing out players in photographs and saying I was there...... The book is beautifully presented and the personalisation makes it truly unique and something to treasure. Excellent communication with the Customer Service Team - I highly recommend the book and the company - thank you!
Great book, well worth the money and very quick to arrive.
