Truly amazing to see my Great Grandad, Joe Murphy, up-front-and-centre in the Boro's 150yr Anniversary. On the advertising boards during the legacy game and today's Tifo at the Wolves game.

Mum is 91yrs, just out of hospital and frail. @skytv was informed when she recently switched to @virginmedia . But they're repeatedly calling her to make a sale despite being told to stop - twice just yesterday. @SkyTV you aught to be ashamed! #disgusted

Wonderful afternoon with @Butterwickhos and an honour to be asked to do a keynote with @GrahamRobb at @HallGarthHotel It gave me the chance to chat The Red Radio and why do it! Thank you to everyone present and those involved in putting it together!

Spent the day on Hadrian’s Wall. Amazing history, but so sad to see the Sycamore Gap without the tree. However, the stump is sprouting new growth - great to see!

So sad. I had the pleasure of interviewing Chris on the launch of his Blue Cafe album. We didn’t talk music, nor the album, we just talked memories of him growing up in Middlesbrough which he relished. It was a true delight. RIP Chris. bbc.co.uk/news/live/c0q5g3v0…

Really sad news. Boam was a leader in every sense and it was an absolute pleasure to watch him lead in his no-nonsense way on the field alongside Willie Maddren. It was brilliant to see him at the 73/74 reunion back in 2018. 6'2, eyes of blue - RIP Stuart.
It is with deep sadness that I have to tell you our captain of the magnificent 1974 promotion team Stuart Boam has passed away. He will join his teammates Willie Maddren, Bobby Murdoch and David Armstrong. Rest is peace my friend. Much love to Janice and family.

Brilliant night at Yarm auditorium last night meeting Steve McClaren, @higs8 and John Hendrie. All Boro legends. Special thanks to @daveroberts64 at @TheRedUK for making this happen. Nice to get my hands on some silverware. Hopefully @BandeiraHarry can experience a cup win 🙏

Definitely. Not one for the limelight hence him being out of his comfort zone. Came across really well and clearly understood what the cup win and european exploits meant for the area and fans. A top night.

Like it or loathe it, he is our greatest ever manager by every statistic that counts. I wasn't his greatest fan at times but he always came across as a great bloke & a great coach, so to have the managerial success he did with boro was quite extraordinary. The greatest.

It raised £2,000 - brilliant!!
THE ball! Yes that one!!!! The one that opened the Riverside on 26 August 1995 - and it's up for grabs tomorrow evening our Boro do with Steve McClaren, Craig Hignett & John Hendrie in Yarm. It'll be auctioned on the night for Noah's Fest that fundraises for James Cook Neonatal Unit. A cracking night in store, tickets are available: thepaaonline.org
