@Boro fixtures - one week today 👍🏻⚽️

[Mike Wadding @waddoboro]

Very sad news. His music is a major part of the soundtrack of my life 😔🎶🇿🇦 https://t.co/yiYq9fOTgh

All the big hitters are banging them in … c’mon Harry 💪👍🏻⚽️🏴󠁧󠁢󠁥󠁮󠁧󠁿

[Jay Shaw @JayShaw180]

It would appear FIFA has implemented a blanket ban on hanging flags within stadiums despite previously stating this was permitted and asking fans to submit approval forms. Any idea on the reason for this? The stadiums look so dull and soulless. @henrywinter @WeAreFreeLions

Trossard always has the ashen, pallid complexion and heavy eyes of an urchin expelled from a Victorian sanatorium for sickly children. #BELEGY #WorldCup

[Graeme Bandeira @GraemeBandeira]

If you're not into the World Cup. Fine. Don't keep telling us. Tweet about something else. For me it's the greatest show on earth and if you truly love football then you'll love the World Cup wherever it is and whatever time games kick off.

香港のシティプラザに集まった中国人サポーターたちも、日本代表の劇的な同点ゴールに大歓声。

試合終了後は、オランダ相手に勝ち点1を掴んだSAMURAI BLUEをともに祝福した。🇯🇵⚽️

Beautiful - even 30 years on.

[The Football Tavern @TavernFootball]

Where have the years gone?

30 years ago today Paul John Gascoigne sent Colin Hendry for an ice cream.

What a day. What a tournament. What a summer.

Memories to last a lifetime

[Mike Wadding @waddoboro]

Love to see this 💪⚽️

[CommBank Socceroos @Socceroos]

@Realdavebrown Anytime - absolutely big massive NO

[Mike Wadding @waddoboro]

Fair 👏🏻

[Barney Ronay @barneyronay]

John McGinn’s last five games: beat Liverpool, beat Man City, win the Europa league, beat Bolivia 4-0, score at the World Cup. No one has had this much fun in the last month

[Mike Wadding @waddoboro]

Get in! 🇦🇺🦘⚽️💪

[Daniel Storey @danielstorey85]

@P81H13 Well I reckon it would have. And I think it would have if we hadn't kept being told it was sold out and if use of secondary sales was barred

[Daniel Storey @danielstorey85]

"We keep some tickets back for some last-minute sales, of course, but every match is sold out" - Gianni Infantino, February 2026.

Maybe they're all at the concourses?

@clay_hazel23381 @MarkDavies67 Exactly this. Greed, and generally not thinking it through.

[Middlesbrough FC @Boro]

Here's a look at some key dates for the diary this summer 📔

[Mike Wadding @waddoboro]

@MarkDavies67 I could see where you were coming from, but this is quite an exceptional case I think.

[Mike Wadding @waddoboro]

In other football news - two weeks today you’ll be perusing and planning - poring over the @boro fixtures for 26/27 ⚽️👍🏻
