The Craig Bellamy story at the end just goes to show what happens when you stand up to bully.
Got the big dogs on now. Boro’s best homegrown talent. Made a scapegoat whenever the team was struggling.

@@mattdevereux5940 For one, we never gave him endless stick .. we actually give him all the support he needed as we were proud to have a Boro lad playing in our team and for England. It was his second stint that was disappointing .. holding the club to ransom over a contract clause and that stopped us from playing him, he wasnt good enough during his second spell .. that's what spoiled his rep with the Boro fans.

I feel guilty for giving him shit for England, when I was younger, a top bloke, proper grounded. Quality quest lads. Can’t wait for Part 2 👌
Few boro lads on lately, love it
Me and my mate had similar experience to the first team steam and jacuzzi incident when on trial at Boro but with a completely different outcome. Instead of Ince telling us to f off, Viv Anderson greeted us fully starkers and had a proper conversation with us asking all sorts of questions. A naked Viv Anderson was a humbling experience in itself 😆
One of Boro,s own Stewy Downing class act looking forward to part 2
I used to run a very cool bar in Boro called Frescos. Played dance and funky house, Stewy was in regular. Knocks about with his old school mates and stuff, real down to earth lad. Even in his peak, was never a big time Charlie! Always gave tips and what a legend. Thanks for your top after the 2 all draw versus the Geordies Stewy, great times at Frescos.

IKR! Fucking hell. People RIP McClaren to PIECES nowadays I've ALWAYS liked the man personally. EVERYONE says he was GREAT on the COACHING side. That's NEVER been doubted. I remember how BIG his rep was at Man Utd when he was under Fergie and when he came I was like YES! Bit of NEW SCHOOL progressive shit not OLD SCHOOL Robson who bought old players and basically revved em up and told them to just go out and play. Not exactly a master tactician. He gave us some of the BEST times ever though did Robson so I'll ALWAYS love the man. So did Macca though like Downing mentions here the UEFA cup run was MENTAL. Coming from behind and winning in the last minutes it was a FAIRY TAIL run and fair play we came up against THE UEFA Cup/Euro leagues BEST TEAM EVER Seville that's THEIR competition. They BOSS that.
Good podcast. Great guy Stewie Downing. Looking forward to part 2
Huge guest this! Last of the old school wingers? Great show as always
Love this podcast so funny keep it going lads 👍
What a top bloke. Looking forward to pt 2.
Nice work guys! Insight.
Great episode lads again! Nice to mix it up and have a established Premier league footballer for years on the show.
Brilliant part 1
Class so far, can’t wait to hear about time at West Ham. Loved him at us
Cool. What a career. I know brownie and parky take the piss out of their careers but, this show has shown how hard it is to even get on the field in league 2. Respect ✊
Great listen! Never heard many people say good things about Ince
What a genuine bloke, different to the old school lads who were mainly there for just a piss up and a laugh, no wonder he had a great career compared to other players round his ability.

Met Downing some years back at Flamingo Land, I went up to him and quietly asked if my son could have a picture taken with him as he was a fan of his. He was with his family as well so I would have actually respected him even if he said no, but he was reyt polite and said yes. I think he respected the fact that I wasn’t loud n leary as he was acting all low key with him being with his family. He was a big name back then and would have probably been hounded.
love the show Boys .....fantastic CRACK ....would love to see Neil Harris ... cheers Lads

Early start let's have it.
Great stuff
Ray Parlour - i think thats me finished Haha, cracked me right up that like.
Up the boro love you stewy
His brother in law is Johnathan Woodgate, now he would be an unbelievable guest! Loved Stewy at the Boro. 🔴⚪️
Not a Boro fan, but I remember that period in the early to mid 00's when they had a lot of high profile players. Karembeu, Boksic, Mendieta, Zenden, Ince, Juninho, Viduka, Hasselbaink, Boateng, Reizeger, Southgate, Woodgate, Mills. Back then there wasn't anywhere near the wealth in the PL as there is now, so makes me wonder how Boro were able to pay those sorts of wages.

I was there at Portsmouth and remember drooling over Downing young Milner and petrov all in the Midfield. We won 4-2 and Downing scored a diving header for the 3rd goal.
Tuncay is SUCH A LEGEND for me! SOOO underrated. He was MINT! I LOVED him. One of those players that you can't NOT like. I think Boro fans forgot about him WAY to quickly IMO.

Where's part 2?
In 2005/06 Stewart Downing was the best winger in the country (including Ronaldo) In that Season he was unreal, he got Boro all the way to the europa league final and played class in the Premier league and was on the short list for Barcelona, Chelsea, Man United etc but the 06/07 it was down hill. He was still good but he was like a different player after that 05/06 season.

Can SOMEONE ANYONE who MAY know about this confirm/deny this story I heard YEARS ago from one of the Boro "Ultras" who supposedly heard it from a first team coach he knew. There was a game and Downing was announced "injured" but apparently there was a hushed up drugs thing. Supposedly on one of his FREQUENT nights out as he mentions here, he took ecxstacy and got found out by the club. I've always wondered how true that is. Not something someone like him would ever come out and tell I guess anyways. But I remember my mate being ADIMANT it was true. This was when he was a young lad still at Boro NOT after he came back before he first moved.
@stevenprofitt

I can’t say for certain but according to people who know him very well, all of those rumours were massively exaggerated or completely made up. Downing barely touched the drink on nights out. Even as a kid he was disciplined in that way. The rumours would come out because some of the people around him would do things like that or had reputations and because people would see them with him, they would assume he was doing it too.

@@stevenprofitt Fair point. BUT what about this scenario? On a night out with the boys people are doing E and he TRIED it? like stupidly or even got spiked? Something happened that he got found out by the club OR he said like listen i was spiked lets keep this thing hushed up and they said he was injured for the next match. They way it just came out and was told to me, it just seems like one of those things no smoke without fire. It just came out of the blue. It was a ONE OFF thing.
