Boro 1 Fulham 0
Hands up those who were excited about playing in a cup final, when given our history, apart from the North Riding Senior Cup finals us Boro fans were pretty thin on the ground when cup finals come along, so this was the biggy
We weren't really to bothered how many we scored to take to the second leg in December, as long as we took a lead & a slender lead we took, courtesy of Les Strong connecting to a David Armstrong diving header at the holgate end from a Terry Cooper cross to take to Craven cottage in 2 weeks time.
1-0 to the mighty reds - One hand on the trophy

I have memories of that night. I can remember being crazy excited we were playing for a cup.
Stood on my wooden stool in the Clive Road end.
