A pretty decent introduction.
I went to that game and a little ginger kid ran the show in midfield. Turned out to be Paul Scholes.16th August 1994. Clayton Blackmore's testimonial (thank god I didn't go with auto text there as it almost said Clayton Blackmore's testicles ) . First experience at Ayresome park and from that point I was hooked. First proper league game I went to was Boro 1-0 Charlton later that season at Ayresome. UWE UWE !!

Yeah he was unbelievable.I went to that game and a little ginger kid ran the show in midfield. Turned out to be Paul Scholes.
Cloughie was making a point in that match because he'd been left out of an England squad. After he scored his 5th the Ayresome faithful gave a fine rendition of the song "Who's Sorry Now?".I was only 5 when my mam and dad took me too my first game and don't actually remember much about it. Brian Clough scored five goals as The Boro side ran out 9-0 winners over Brighton at Ayresome Park on 23 August 1958.
From that unmemorable start things could only get better. UTFB
I have the programme for that game somewhere. My mum was in amongst many supporters who walked to the match from Billingham because of the length of the queues for the buses.Boro 1 Newcastle United 0. 27th December 1949. Ayresome Park’s record attendance.
