    Middlesbrough have appointed Gareth Southgate as their new manager.

    Southgate, who won 57 caps for England, joined Boro from Aston Villa in a £6.5m deal in summer 2001, and has made more than 200 appearances for the club.

    The 35-year-old defender has been given the job despite not possessing the relevant Uefa coaching qualifications.

    Club chairman Steve Gibson said: "We have fast-tracked Gareth because we let our previous manager, Steve McClaren, become the new England coach."

    It will be interesting to see what happens with this. Hopefully he can continue building the Boro team. I'd be happy with a top half finish next season, maybe a UEFA cup placing (all assuming he gets to keep the job).

    Boro should get a repamand for defying the FA so blatantly imo. I don't think Southgate will get installed as manager. I wonder what odds you would get on O Neil becoming their manager for the forthcoming season? Good odds no doubt.

    Bit surprised myself but if there was ever a player i saw definitely going down the management road it was Southgate. I hope he does well for them, good pro and seems like an honest bloke.wonder what this is gonna do for the LMA s credibiliy though.
