Following this, he became a prolific striker for his home town club [[Middlesbrough F.C.|Middlesbrough]] since his debut in the [[1955–56 Middlesbrough F.C. season|1955–56 season]] and an impressive [[1956–57 Middlesbrough F.C. season|1956–57 season]] now as starter, scoring 204 goals in 222 league matches for Boro,<ref name="autogenerated1">{{cite web | url=http://www.brianclough.com/new_page_4.htm | title=Brian Clough's career information from brianclough.com | url-status=dead | archive-url=https://web.archive.org/web/20080406162657/http://www.brianclough.com/new_page_4.htm | archive-date=6 April 2008 }}</ref> including 40 or more goals in four consecutive seasons, being [[Football League Second Division|Division Two]] topscorer in two of them: [[1958–59 Middlesbrough F.C. season|1958–59]] and [[1959–60 Middlesbrough F.C. season|1959–60]].

In the [[1960–61 Middlesbrough F.C. season|1960–61 season]] after a 6–6 draw against [[Charlton Athletic F.C.|Charlton Athletic]], Clough sarcastically asked his teammates how many goals they would have to score in order to win a match.<ref name="robstewart"/> He also publicly accused some of his teammates of betting against the team and deliberately letting in goals.<ref>{{cite web|url=http://www.middlesbrough-mad.co.uk/feat/edx5/brian_clough_21448/index.shtml |title=Brian Clough |publisher=Middlesbrough-mad.co.uk |date=31 October 2001 |access-date=14 June 2012}}</ref> While at Middlesbrough, Clough became acquainted with goalkeeper [[Peter Taylor (footballer, born 1928)|Peter Taylor]], with whom he would later form a successful managerial partnership at several clubs.
