I look forward to seeing him grazing his Sheep on Clairville Common.

Or his Donkeys ?

His wife will be thrilled

Should have been given it for his time as player and captain of the club.

 

[jam69]

Great news, middlesbroughs most successful captain

 

[Boro1876]

What a legend.

 

[rob_fmttm]

That is tremendous. Really pleased about this. He is such a top bloke and has achieved so much. A true role model as a national manager.

Jim Platt not happy!

Jim Platt not happy!

Why so.?

 

[BoroGold]

I always remember thinking when we signed him that he was another coming to milk our Club, because in my opinion he could have walked into any of the so called "Big Clubs" and the one he was at at the time is not exactly a little one, how wrong could I have been ?
Gareth gave a 100% effort every time he crossed the White Line.
What a Pro. what a CH, what a Captain and last but not least, what a Guy.
Over the Moon that he has been given the Freedom of The Boro.

 

[TheYorkshireTerrier]

Has he actually commented on this yet?

 

[The_Big_Woodowski]

So what does that actually mean? What his he now allowed to do that I can’t?

 

[Expat Smoggie]

I was wondering if he was [partly] responsible for bringing the England Euro 2020 warm-up games to the Riverside? Anyone know?

 

[Archiestephens_elbow]

I can't believe Gibson rioch Mowbray and the 86 squad did not beat him to it.

Without them wouldn't be a club

He said he wasn't, it was an FA decision and they'd wanted to host England matches in the North East for a while.

One of the two was originally meant to be in Newcastle too, but they had issues so both were moved to the Riverside.

I always remember thinking when we signed him that he was another coming to milk our Club,

And he did.

 

[McBrid]

And he did.

So clueless.

 

[Boro1876]

And he did.

You obviously didn't watch us much back then. I wish more players like that would milk us.

 

[Corcaigh_the_Cat]

He's not the only bloke to take over a decent squad and get his team relegated but it was still some achievement and I for one am glad it isn't being forgotten.

Well done Southgate.
