Deadline-day loan signing Danny Graham wants to show the Boro fans that he is a different player to the one that left in 2007
Danny Graham in action for Boro
Prodigal poacher Danny Graham was touched by a warm welcome from fans as he made his second debut for Boro.
Graham, on loan from Sunderland, was serenaded as “one of our own” by the 4,000 fans at the 0-0 draw at Doncaster.
“It was a fantastic welcome,” he said. “The fans were brilliant and gave me a great reception. It was just disappointing we didn’t send them back up the road with the win they deserved.”

Despite a tense deadline day wait Graham, who left Boro for Carlisle in 2007, never feared for the deal.
“I always knew it would happen,” he said. “Everyone was working very hard to get the deal done. It was just a question of whether it would happen in time for me to play at Doncaster.
“I’m delighted to be back at Boro and hope to show fans that I’m a different player now.
“I was a young boy when I left and it was right for me at the time as there were some big, big players ahead of me.
“I went and learned my trade in League Two, League, One, the Championship and the Premier League.
“I’m a better player now and I’m hoping to show Boro fans that as soon as possible.”
