In Another Life: Steven Gerrard Supports Middlesbrough
By Ollie Irish
You’re looking at an old photo of a topless Tony Mowbray in his Middlesbrough days, celebrating some victory or other (a Boro promotion?). I have no more details than that. If I had to date the pic, I’d say late 1980s? I’m sure one of you lot will come up trumps…
Anyway, the point is: what the hell is Steven Gerrard doing on the terraces!? Back then, he were only a wee lad, not the full-sized Stevie G we see here. Proof that Stevie is a secret time traveller who supports the Boro? Could be.

Think its the play off final against Chelsea (away)season 87/88 when Chelsea beat us 1 0 but we went up as we had beaten them at Ayresome Park 2 0
What a find!!!! That’s too uncanny, I recon that’s probably his long lost ancestor or something, it looks too much like Stevie!
Nice one Pies!
This is pooky beyond words!!! Thats Gerrard that is!
Great shout for stevie g.
This picture is very famous. It is the celebration of winning the play off final 1988 to the top flight away to chelsea. In those days the third bottom team in div 1 played 3rd team in div 2. This is the 2nd leg and I think boro had won at home 2-0 and lost 1 nil away, but went through. There was loads of trouble with chelsea fans and this is some time after the final whistle when it was deemed safe for the players to return to the pitch to celebrate with the fans.
“Mr. Boro” indeed. Well done.
i agree this is spooky… that lad is stevie g…
This is so spooky.
