- I explored all of Middlesbrough's most important football sites. From the Brian Clough statue in Albert Park to their old abandoned stadium (Ayresome Park) to the Riverside Stadium.
Middlesbrough Football Club are one of the oldest clubs in England and have had numerous legends play for and manage the club. Paul Gascoigne, Graeme Souness, Juninho, Jack Charlton, Bryan Robson and MORE!

WIN!!!! instagram.com/p/CY3jOkeIJXU/
My first football was at Ayresome Park in 1958. Cloughie scored 6 goals. He was deadly.
Middlesbrough were the last team to win major silverware in the north east , then Sunderland in the 70s followed by Newcastle 9865 years ago
There is a bronze ball where the centre circle was. It's in the front garden on a house in the midfield. The Holgates (our kop) wall also remains. UTB
Oh amazing, I'll have to come back. Thanks for letting me know!!
There’s also a circle of metal studs on the road/ pavement to show the full centre circle and if you look hard enough there’s bronze boots in a front garden, our club and town is full of history thats what sets us apart, our club is a huge part of our community
The ball is my front garden lol
@@kkcrook6893wasn't the house for sale recently
@@richardlambert3937 ye but it's not for sale anymore
I remember when Boro won the cup, I was in primary school and the day after during our assembly - where normally a teacher would stand at the front and preach bibley stories, the headteacher took over, pulled out a boombox and played Pig Bag, dancing along to it. He ended the assembly after and just said "enjoy the rest of the day!"
One of my favourite memories
That's brilliant 👏
Boro also managed to reach both cups finals and get relegated in the same season due to not playing blackburn due to a virus in the camp and being deducted 3 points funny now with all the games being cancelled due to covid.
Sam - you parked outside my house at Ayresome Park - please come back again and I will show you around - we have lots of pieces of sculpture that you missed showing you various parts of the ground like the penalty spot, centre spot and edges of the pitch and even the exact spot where N Korea scored against Italy (sort of). I will also show you where the main Ayresome Park kop end was, the Holgate End, where there is an information board about the ground. Come back and I will show you around.
Can you post them please?
I attended all 3 World Cup games at Ayresome Park. I remember watching the legend that was Lev Yashin, the Russian goalkeeper and the North Korean Pak Doo-Ik scoring the winner against Italy
You must be old
Middlesbrough is one of my favourite respective real English footballing clubs ever since I was a child and am extremely so lucky to watch them playing in all of their respective matches both in the English First Division(Premier League) and English Second Division(Championship) and of course,I fully like their history extremely so much and ever,good friends!!!I must continue watching their respective matches through my handphone's internet and hope to see the bringing back the true meaning of English football in the first division just like how Leicester City,West Ham United and Aston Villa have been doing so far at the moment from those two fake big clubs for more than 10 years,good friends!!!:-D
Hi mate welcome to smoggy land .
UTB!
Let’s go I support boro ⚪️🔴
LEGEND! Thank you for watching
I have so many amazing memories supporting this club. The night we beat Roma at the Olimpico will stay with me until the grave. I attended the game with my uncle who first took me to Ayresome Park as a 2 year old, UTB.
UTB we’re going up
@@endahaddow6800 Wilder said
He F***ing loves paddy mcnair
Oh words can’t describe
Assiah running down the right hand side
Crooks hair is fine
Scores belters all the time
That’s why we’ll sing this song
For the Boro all night long
Not to be a dick, but we didn’t win in Rome. We lost 2-1.
@@davidmothersill1591 beat them on aggregate
@@crouchingtiger2988 we did, actually on away goals rule, so I’m correct in saying “we did NOT win in Rome” 🤷🏻♂️
Nice to now more about boro as a Sunderland fan
Love that you mention statues. I wouldn't be surprised if there is soon a statue of Gareth Southgate there soon. There has been talks about it. And that game of Bolton v Middlesbrough is an interesting one in the terms of England Managers. Both Managers and the Middlesbrough captain would go on to be England Managers. 14 Managers in over 75 years and 3 featured in the same game.
As a Middlesbrough fan I have watched both of your Boro videos and the way you have covered our club has been fantastic. Rob Nichols has also commented and you should take him up on his offer. He is probably too modest to say, but he runs our fanzine (Fly Me To The Moon) and is a local celebrity - you should take him up on his offer. Although you did a great job on your own. Great content and love the enthusiasm. I am now a subscriber and also really enjoy the abandoned stadiums.
At trhe start of the 86/87 season The Boro played their first game at Hartlepool due to money issues and those very gates were locked with chains by bailiffs keeping the club out of their own ground !
I’m fortunate to have been to ayresome park on three occasions and a unique ground with a wonderful atmosphere though as a Chelsea fc fan it was agonising to see us lose be 7-2 in the 1978-79 season what a memory
Great to see someone covering our great club🔴⚪️
Brian Clough's old family home has a blue plaque on the wall. Valley Road, the other side of Albert Park where another stadiun, Clairville Stadium used to reside.
Loving the boro content thank you im a boro fan
Loving the Boro vlogs mate UTB
Great video! Thanks for showcasing our club. I live away now and you have made me homesick in the best way possible :) #utb
I’m from Middlesbrough! Was nice for you to visit .. someone in that estate has the original penalty spot in their front garden.. exactly where it was in ayresome park!!
Just wanted to say I'm really happy how well your channel is doing and I hope it keeps going.
Always very convivial and engaging, informative content 👍
Great vid
Boro; what an outstanding English club .
i just stumbled upon your channel today..the first video i saw was from 2020 when you visited a bunch of stadiums in the 'south' of england (luton, st albans, etc) and i am beyond jealous....these videos (and i aim to watch them ALL) where you visit stadiums, even get onto the pitch once in a while (WOW!!) is my BUCKET LIST..i live in the USA but my bucket list is to visit EVERY FOOTBALL GROUND IN ENGLAND...all tiers....if i could make a living at it i would (if that was possible)....i envy your past and future adventures and wil catch up on the videos in due course...if you ever need to hire an assistant, let me know.. CHEERS!
Nice 👍 something decent to watch while I make dinner. This is easily one of my favourite YT channels.
Quality 👍
You are a hero! Thanks so much. Don't take your eyes off anything hot/sharp whilst watching though!!
i lived in within Middlesbrough area for a few months. UTB 😊
They have a good stadium the riverside stadium :)
I'm born in Middlesbrough, now living in Salisbury, South Australia. My name is Robbie Leach....maybe Archibald is a great Uncle ?? My wife & I had a month holiday in the UK in 2018 and saw the BORO beat WBA 1-0 (Ayala scoring in the 94th minute) and got a tour of the ground hosted by 2 past players. What a night that was ! Love you videos & so happy that you came to Middlesbrough.
I took that foe Grant..ed lol !
great and very respectful video - thank you
Nice 2 see you in Boro, I really enjoy your content mate, just one gripe me being from Middlesbrough, I'd just like 2 point out we are a town n not a city as you stated might be one day but keep up the good work.
What a legendary channel this is!!
You can see a silver football on the street that is The Midfield.
It actually marks where the penalty spot would’ve been.
Great video
Tiny correction... Boro never won the third tier, but were runners up and promoted at the first ask both times.1967 to QPR and 1987 to Bournemouth.
I live in Brisbane and loved your video as I miss my Boro so much. Glad you enjoyed the Reading game
#UTB
You are class mate for doing about my club great videos keep it up UTB
Thanks 👍
Love the daily content
I saw you at the match and good video 👍👍👍 keep the work up ☺️☺️☺️☺️
really enjoyed that tks !!
Great vlog mate, born n bread boro, nice for somebody outside the area coming in and giving such a positive vide unlike nation media!.. if you went outside Albert park the other way you would have found Clough’s house where he was born on valley road…
Excellent vid, with a cameo from my house. If you go down to the end of Clough Close you'll see the Holgate Wall, the last part of Ayresome Park which still stands.
What a brilliant video 👍
Great content!
There is a garden with a penalty spot in it for the old stadium you missed lol
That's right! There's a concrete football in the middle of the lawn :)
Cloughie's childhood home is at Valley Road, Middlesbrough. North Korea took everyone by surprise in '66. They nearly knocked out Portugal, but I don't know if that match was played at Ayresome Park.
Another great vid
Brian clough was one Middlesbrough highest goalscorers very prolific
213 appearance 197 goals
Be his statue need repairing at base Middlesbrough Council getting repaired
Quality vid mate
U want to know a boro fact
We are going up thats a fact.
great video. you should visit the soon Derby County's old Baseball Ground Stadium.... they might not be around for much longer
You need to try a parmo to eat next time your up here!! Glad you enjoyed the boro, UTB ❤
Everyone round my house for a parmo
Superb Sam 👍 you are welcome at the Boro anytime.
Should have mentioned that in the semifinal of the UEFA cup we came back from being 3-0 down to win 4-3!
The old ground was spelt ayresome park but was known as Awesome Park in my day
Brian’s been fenced in for ages mate, if you had walked to the opposite end of the park you would have been outside his birthplace it has a plaque on the wall, and the museum outside the park had his famous green jumper on display which is information I’m sure you’re overwhelmed to know! Hope you enjoyed the town fella
Love it, I live on Clough close. Could not be prouder.
Lets go great video
Thanks!!!
Clough started his playing career at my club Billingham Synthonia, just up the road from Boro. Come see us sometime, we have so much history
But not a ground any more (Central Ave) ☹️
Great video, up the Boro!
One of the back gardens has the penalty spot Marked out with a sign and other house has the centre circle as well. UTB
Clough Close is where the old hospital used to be. The main 'shrine' of the old ground is at the very end of 'The Midfield' road and has the original Holgate end wall still standing and text about the history is there. The Holgate is a reference to what the hospital was before it was a hospital (A Victorian workhouse) The outward face of the wall is visible from Clough Close if you go far enough down.
The Ayresome Park gates were famously photographed with a huge padlock on them before the club was going to fold in 1986. That’s why on matchday the same gates are always fixed open.
Agree with the others - 1986 story is very famous. Club playing in the lower tier mostly full of local players…Tony Mowbray, Gary Pallister, Colin Cooper, Stuart Ripley etc.
There is also a blue plague on Clough’s house - 11 Valley Road, right by Albert Park
Great stuff, Sam!
So many interesting stories in football lore
And have been to the riverside stadium once in around the year 2000 and whilst staying the weekend in Middlesbrough I did a stadium tour which was enjoyable
Aww man....a CARVERY! That would go down a treat right now. Got some nice pork steaks in, but it's not a carvery 😋
There is a statue of a football in one of the front gardens of the midfield which represents the kick off spot and if you go further round the turnstile you will find the holgate which was apart of ayresome park and they still have a hand rail from ayresome park there against a wall
Suggestions for old stadium sites to visit when you're back up the road; Brockville (Falkirk), Muirton (StJohnstone) and Broomfield (Airdrie). If you take a pastry covered meat ensemble with you on that trip you'll be taking pie to 3 dismal places :-/
Where the old ground is a wall that was part of the ground, Tollesby Road over the road from the Scouts place was one of Middlesbrough's old training ground and you can still see it with nothing but one building on it
In a garden near the Ayresome Park location , there are the studmarks of Pak Do Ik who scored the goal for North Korea that put Italy out of the 1966 World Cup
Hiya Sam how about doing a two piece tour of Tooting and mitcham Utd old stadium in sandy lane where their is new housing etc with names of players from the past and the new stadium at imperial fields bishopford road where Chelsea fc use to have there training ground decades ago well that’ll be a good mission hey
Boro highest finish in the top flight was 3rd 1913-1914 season
would’ve won the league too if it wasn’t for ww2
I would have encouraged you to visit the St Georges Hotel next to Teesside Airport which is where the North Korea side stayed and trained. The hotel is now closed down but I spent a lot of time there working when I was younger.
Not all in the UK but Sir Bobby Robson has four statues now, Portman Road, St James Park, FC Porto museum and lastly...Vila Sol, Vilamoura golf club also in Portugal
I really enjoyed this have u done Huddersfield Town? Think they used to play at Leeds Road?
I've found the Huddersfield video it's great.. I know southamptons old ground is now a road called The Dell.. :)
What about Ninian Park or Vetch Field... I know Ninian Park definitely has a plaque :)
There is a plaque on the house Cloughie was born. It's in the estate Grove Hill opposite the entrance to the statue. He walked through the park to Ayrsome park stadium.
There's a section of wall from the Holgate end of Ayresome Park in one of the gardens.
Middlesbrough FC was not the first club to represent the town in the Football League. That honour went to Middlesbrough Ironopolis, who were elected to the Second Division in 1893 - the same year as Arsenal, Liverpool and Newcastle United. Although on the field they did reasonably well, finishing 11th out of 15, the challenge was too much for the club's finances to bear, and they folded before the new season began. Ironopolis played at a ground very close to the former Ayresome Park, but I don't know if it was still in use when the latter was built.
You were actually on the street next to me would have been great to meet you cos I could have told you Clough Close isn’t really anything to do with the old ground mate, I did tell you on your West Ham video about Boro having the bronze ball over tje halfway line and boots on the penalty spots where Ayresome was so I think you maybe just forgot (they’re hard to just notice and not signposted for visitors I don’t think) - maybe next time mate 👍🏻 But yeah Clough close is jist names after Brian, Maddren Way and Camsell court next to Clough is also old player names but they’re in the grounds of the old hospital not Ayresome
The brian clough statue is cracking on the knee. Ironically the same knee that forced him to retire.
Think you should visit millmoor old rotherham United ground that still stands ,I went to vist last month
For the World Cup Ayresome Park was all seater, but afterwards in reverted to only partially seated. The funny thing is that Ayresome Park wasn't going to be used for the World Cup. It should have been St James' Park, Newcastle, but they didn't own their ground at the time, it was owned by the council and the club wasn't on good terms with them. So the FA look to Middlesbrough, a d the rest, as they say, is history.
Another Middlesbrough George, George Camsell scored 18 goals for England in 9 games between 1929 and 1936 giving him the highest goals per game ratio any England footballer. He also scored 63 goals in single season (1926-27) but was out scored by Dixie Dean that season.
The opening match at Ayresome Park was against Sunderland which Sunderland won. Middlesbrough's chairman clumsily tried to persuade the Sunderland team to throw the match. Sunderland reported this approach and the Boro got into trouble,, and not for the last time in the pre-WW1 era. The purchase of Alf Common caused an FA inquiry.
Coventry would be a good one to look at
Springfield Park and DW Stadium, not too far apart although there’s only Sunday league where our old stadium used to be
Ayresome park was a “tasty” away day back in the mid 80’s with my club Birmingham
Leeds fans used to call it fearsome park, for good reason!
Might be worth checking out Colchester United old and new ground
There is a plaque of sorts just in front of the original holgate wall at the back of the new estate. The wall stood behind the famous holgate end, known for housing the most fanatical/ noisest fans, not to mention skinheads/boot boys back in the day.
Boro fan here, one fact i got from my dad (not sure if its true), the clough statue in albert park faces ayersome park
You should look at some teams in Wales.
Cool fact. We have been the bookies favourite to win the old league 1 on 2 occasions. The first time ww1 broke out the 2nd time ww2 started
The Brian Clough statue has been changed in recent times from one with his foot raised to the one of him walking. Children sitting on the leg were causing structural damage. The location has been moved to the Riverside to in recent times. A shame really considering the reference to the history but it's likely to be a safer location for a statue.
Get yourself to Billingham Synthonia! A great name and a great Teeside team.
Please can you go to Stoke city fc
I think they may be a sign where the old dens center circle was
Plz go to a game at st mirren
I'm a Middlesbrough fan
Go to rangers vs stirling albion next
bit of albert park
do roker park stadium of light plz
I was there in 1876!
Clough Close reminds me of Bassong Area 🤣
Haha classic!
How have you managed a carvery before kick off!? No room for pints!
Are you going to any Scottish Cup games
