Why not cyber support my football (soccer) team?

Ok,  i'm a season ticket holder at my local football club ( or soccer to certain people ).  My team is not a particularly well known team outside the UK and unfortunately were relegated from the Premiership last season.  Up until 2004 we had never won a major cup in our history ( founded in 1876).  All that changed when we beat Bolton 2-1. yes !!!!!!.   We then went on make the UEFA Cup Final in 2006 where we lost but was still a massive achievement for our club.  Then  our manager left to take over the England national job.

Since then our decline has been pretty bad.  We appointed a young and inexperienced guy who was our captain at the time and things didn't go to plan.  Like a lot of clubs in England, financial restraints are taking their toll so now we have been relegated to the Coca-Cola championship, we have to sell our better players.
My son (who is 12) and I have again got our season tickets for this season but with attendances down, we could do with all the support we could get.
So my fellow GiantBomb friends, feel free to cyber support my team over the coming season where i'll attempt to keep you all up to date with  the highs and lows of my team.   
The season kicks off a week on Friday (7th August) against Sheffield United.  Who is this team you are asking who GB will take to their hearts?, Middlesbrough Football Club ( or as we liked to be known, "Boro" )
