Only to end up losing 2-1 with Sheff Utd striker & Boro lad Edwards playing for them, scoring I think also, as the mighty Boro lost the game 2-1 at Ayresome Park
Don O'Riordan scored our consolation goal to double his league seasons account
This was Boro's 3rd home game & 4th since Sir Bruce took over from the late, great Willie Maddren, won one, drew one, lost one
The board were so impressed with the transformation in performance of the team that they offered him the position as full time Boro manager, as opposed to temporary manager
Bruce's team that day
