Boro were founded in 1876 by members of a local cricket club at a tripe supper in the Talbot Hotel, turned professional in 1889, briefly reverted to amateur status and turned professional again in 1899. The club won its first major trophy, the League Cup, in 2004 and reached the UEFA Cup final in 2006. Middlesbrough left Ayresome Park for the Riverside Stadium in 1995.
