This week (8th - 14th September) in Boro history
Match of the Week
14th September 1968
Division 2: Boro vs Grimsby Town 3-1
Place: Ayresome Park
Attendance: 17 398
Boro line-up: Whigham, Smith, Jones, Gates, Rooks, Crossan, Lugg, McMordie, Horsfield, Hickton, Downing, Kear
Boro goals: Hickton 24, Gates 44 65
Something special: Bill Gates (centre-half) had not scored since 21st January 1967. He actually scored only eight goals in his Boro career (1961-74), so twice in this certain afternoon was a big thing for him.
