Theme: Sports Watching
Middlesbrough FC play their home games at the Riverside Stadium. You will see Premiership football from August to May. Boro as they are nicknamed have a whole host of internationals on show when they play. The list includes:
- Gareth Southgate, Ugo Ehiogu (England)
- Mark Schwarter (Australia)
- Joseph Job (Cameroon)
- Szilard Nemeth (Slovakia)
- Mark Crossley (Wales)
- Massimo Maccarone (Italy)
- Juninho (Brazil)
The main stand at the stadium is the west stand and I would recommend the lower half from about row 10 upwards (so you don't get wet if it rains) or the upper stand. The seats around 100 are the more central ones in the stand.
The club tries to encourage a family atmosphere within the stadium and I have never witnessed any major problems with hooliganisn within the stadium.
Equipment: Wrap up warm as you may have the wind blowing in off the river. It can be cold when you least expect it ..
