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.

Classy but tiny print

Thank you for your review.
We do apologise for the inconvenience caused.
From looking into this, we can see that what was ordered was the A4 Middlesborough book. For this item, the text and content has to be scaled down from the original newspapers (where the item is made from) in order to fit within the A4 version book. We do have an A3 upgrade version of this book which is larger in size and the content does not have to be scaled down to the same extent.
If you wished to place an order with us in the future, please do contact us and we will generate a discount code for you.
Once again please do accept our apologies for the inconvenience caused.
If you need to contact the customer service team, please do on 0330 058 0403 or contact@inthebook.com
Kind Regards, The In The Book Team

It proved to be a great success as a present and caused a great deal of coment by all saw it. We were so pleased that we purchased the F1 book and had it sent to to New Zealand and it went down a storm. We were highly delighted with both purchases and would not hesitate in recomending them as unusal gifts which will become treasured gifts in the years to come.Don Dodsworth

annie1dog29 August
The book was fantastic and so different from the usual 40th birthday presents. The recipient has not taken his smile off his face. The whole family were really impressed. 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.
Great product but shocking customer service. Ordered newspaper and puzzle book at the beginning of the month. Straight after ordering I noticed a mistake with the wording on the certificate. No option to amend order, as it was out of hours so I used their contact form to ask for the issue to be sorted prior to dispatch. Product arrived 4 days later and the issue had not been fixed. A whole 12 days after I initially got in contact I received an email stating that since my order has been dispatched they could not rectify it. If I was asking for a whole replacement order then fair enough but I was only asking for the wording to be changed on the A5 certificate. I was going to order some other products however with the poor customer service I've received I'll look elsewhere.
