Surreal pre match so far; departing train station is also an active steam railway, so loads of steam related activities going on.

Despite being in the middle of nowhere, 8 Boro fans boarded where I did, and each stop at the next tiny village even more get on. I suppose it probably is the closest “big team” to the Moors.

And my station might have had an active steam railway line, but the coffee shop refused to open even a minute early for me to get a coffee/food etc, and there’s no service on this tiny train.

All in all; just glad the train turned up and I’m on route now - just got to work out where to go once I get there!

Went to Nero for a coffee - all the medical staff were there! Recognised some but not others. There was a cockney bloke who was the loudest by far.

Quick Google tells me it’s likely Adam Hearn - Head of Sports Science.

Good luck to everyone going up there. I reckon the locals might be a bit surprised at the atmosphere we're going to generate.

I can only imagine how it's going to feel in the ground. I'm already feeling a bit wobbly and it's still hours away!

Bring back at least the point, please!

Any pubs likely to show the game? Gutted we’re not on sky, would watch on iFollow but am concerned I’ll get updates before the stream catches up… would much prefer to watch in the pub

Currently in Spoons - it’s pretty much all Boro fans, but £1.50 for an ale is ridiculous!!

Just paid over £15 for 2 pints at London Bridge on the way to the Millwall game. Bet it's cheaper in Boro!

Stomach is turning, nervous about today.

Nicest away fans pub I’ve ever been to! Who’d have thought that in Middlesbrough!

It’s that nice I reckon people are worried about signing as it’s a bit too quiet thus far.

Probably why it's so quiet if you're all signing!
