Meet The Boro Bard, a man who should be saluted and a personality who really should be spoken about in higher places, because of the unique form of entertainment that he provides.
The Boro Bard is a lifelong supporter of Middlesbrough F.C. and actually relocated in his earlier years, just so that it would be easier to get to Ayresome Park.
Before the move, he used to cycle a round trip of over fifty miles from Ferryhill to every home game. Now that is big time dedication for you.
These days, The Boro Bard usually listens to Boro via Ali and Bernie's Century Radio commentary and after every match, a new poem is composed and published on The Boro Bard's very own website, which was created and is maintained by the man himself.
A small selection of these fine works have been produced below, with the kind permission of The Boro Bard. You can view the full selection on the above mentioned Boro Bard website.
