Pretty much that same team weren't a million miles away from winning the League & Cup double the next season.This thread has sent a shiver down the spine and a tear to the eye. I know this is old guy reminiscing for many young uns on here (the equivalent of old guys droning on about Wilf Mannion in my day), but it's impossible to overstate how great that side was. To be seventeen and a Boro supporter in 1974 was the very definition of heaven
We definitely smashed the league that season.Most wins, fewest defeats, most goals scored and fewest conceded. Plus, the equivalent of being 23 points clear had it been 3 points for a win. Total domination of the division!
