🇧🇷 | A slice of Dorival Guidoni Júnior… Doriva initially signed on loan from Celta Vigo in January 2003. The deal was made permanent the following August for a fee of around €200k. The midfield anchor went on to lift the Carling Cup and play in both UEFA Cup campaigns. 🏆

PAUL INCE #9 The Guv’nor was captain during his 3 seasons at the club and went on to make over 100 appearances. Arriving with an exceptional footballing pedigree, the England international was a tenacious midfielder and proved to be a superb captain. Paul loved long sleeves!

DAVID ARMSTRONG #11 David "Spike" Armstrong signed professional forms for Boro in 1971 and was a key part of Jack Charlton's promotion winning side in 1973-74. He made an incredible 431 appearances for the club and also played for England. A fabulous shirt. A true Boro icon.

Henry Moszkowicz was an envelope magnate based in London who responded to an advert placed in the Times by Steve Gibson in 1986. Gibson needed a £200,000 investment in the football club to prevent it from collapsing into the abyss. Moszkowicz eventually invested £300,000...⬇️

ALEN BOKŠIĆ Bokšić was a dynamic, physically strong, and prolific forward, who was renowned for his technique, skill, creativity, movement and power. Arriving at Boro with a great pedigree, there’s no doubting that on his day he was almost unplayable, albeit a mercurial talent.

STEPHEN PEARS #1 Erreà's first season with the Boro in the 1994-95 season laid the foundations of what would develop into an iconic partnership. Stephen Pears and Alan Miller both played a huge part in sealing promotion back to the Premier League for Bryan Robson's side. UTB!

ADAMA TRAORÉ DIARRA #37 A product of La Masia, he offered so much, with unworldly pace & power, coupled with exceptional ball control, albeit unpredictable, he was unplayable at times. A raw talent, that was as frustrating as he was exciting. One thing is for certain, he knew how to raise bums…

JONATHAN MARK HOWSON #16 Signed from Norwich City in 2017, club captain Jonny Howson has made more than 300 appearances for the Boro. A quietly confident, self-assured and ever-reliable leader in centre midfield. A distinguished servant of the club.

WILLIE MADDREN #6 Maddren signed professional forms in 1968 and spent the entirety of his career playing for the Boro, making 351 appearances in all. A composed and classy centre-back, he formed a formidable partnership with Stuart Boam as one half of the 'telepathic twins'.

Big John Hickton was my first #Boro centre forward hero! A proper #9 That shirt is not only iconic but my favourite away kit! 👏 I’ve even got shares in a racehorse named after Big John - “Hickton” he’s having his winter break at the moment!

JOHN HICKTON #9 Stan Anderson brought John Hickton to Teesside from Sheffield Wednesday in 1966 for £20,000. A powerful, decisive, archetypical centre forward, big John was prolific in his distinguished career with the Boro. Don't forget about those legendary penalties either.

🇳🇴 | Jan Åge Fjørtoft’s Boro debut shirt, worn at West Brom, on 1st April 1995. Jan also wore this shirt at Oldham, on 5th April 1995. On this occasion, we’ve paired the shirt with a period tracksuit, to create some serious nostalgia. A brilliant piece of Boro history…

🇪🇸 | As a Valencia icon, and one of the most sought-after players in the world, Lazio paid €47.7M for Mendieta’s services in 2001. 2 years later he joined Boro, and the rest is history. He probably should have featured more, but he’ll always be remembered as a Boro great.

One of my favourite pieces. A drill top from the 1980's. Loved shooting it against the old Holgate Wall at Ayresome Park to show it off properly. No embroidering on the version Tony Mowbray is wearing though. 🤔
