Come on Boro! I wish I could have made it up there.

The Middlesbrough line up for today’s

Swines, I wanted to be German german.millermanschool.com

“2026 is the year of the horse” The horse:

A very poor sketch of a horse in a Stoke City coat that I, a 44 year old woman, drew at the request of my son. It was my best work and it’s terrible. It’s saying NEIGH
