        Overview

        Under the management of Jackie Charlton, 1974 heralded a return to the First Division for a once struggling Middlesbrough Football Club. By the time Tyne Tees Television captured this school choir singing the club’s praises, the β€˜Boro’, as they are locally known, were well on the way to securing 7th place in the 1974-75 season. Little is known about the school or pupils featured, but theirs (or at least their teacher’s) affection for the team is infectious.
