Foggon could really do with losing a few pounds
Perhaps although you have to loosen the boundaries a bit to class Charlton and Robson as Geordies.We knock the Geordies, mostly with light hearted banter, unless of course they are punching horses. But you have to admit that they produce the Boro a good stock of Managers from time to time, hopefully including Michael Carrick.
That's what stood out for me about the 'squad photo'. Just 12 outfield players and 1 goalie. Same in the early Rioch days (although part of that was because we were skint!).One centre forward away from glory
Jack's biggest mistake.
Basically 11 players. The names are ingrained in my head

When you talk about the game being different now l agree with that. But l would say that every member of that team would still be a very good player today
Not many teams had big squads in them days.That's what stood out for me about the 'squad photo'. Just 12 outfield players and 1 goalie. Same in the early Rioch days (although part of that was because we were skint!).
