Certainly at Ayresome Park when Boro cruised past Sunderland in to the 5th round
Both team wearing away strips, my favourite away strip & the MOTD cameras present at a full house AP
After struggling to beat non league Wycombe Wanderers in the 3rd round over 2 games to progress we were drawn at home to our 2nd tier neighbours Sunderland
The game started at a frantic pace & after just 10 minutes a misplaced pass from Graeme Souness gifted Sunderland a goal start, Souness soon made amends for his mistake & creating the equaliser for Bobby Murdoch to bring the score level, the holgate erupted, normal service was now resumed, David Mills brought down twice in the Sunderland penalty area resulting in Boro legend King John Hickton scoring 2 penalties, which was the 11th time in our history scoring 2 penalties in one game & putting the game to bed
We showed our superiority progressed through to the next round & TBH, we made the game easier than the Wycombe game
In front of 39,400 two big John penalties & a Bobby Murdoch goals seen the mighty Boro through
