Middlesbrough FC news, match reports and articles - Boro Mania 23 July @ 01:36 PM EST

Middlesbrough romped to a 5-0 victory over Scottish Second Division side Dumbarton with England under-21 winger Adam Johnson scoring the pick of the goals. The only downside of an otherwise fine run out for the Boro team was a hip injury to Frenchman Didier Digard, hopefully not too bad of an injury as we could really do with him staying injury free for a while!

Scottish Fourth Level Champions

Scottish Football Archive 14 May @ 09:48 AM EST

Dumbarton's Third Division title this season means they become the first team in Scotland to have won league titles at all four professional league levels.
