The 1959–60 season was Middlesbrough's 77th year in existence and 6th consecutive season in the Division Two. Also the club competed in the FA Cup.

Summary

In his fifth season as manager Bob Dennison took off Boro to the 5th place just 10 points below promotion to Division One. Forward Brian Clough scored 40 goals with another brilliant partnership among Alan Peacock and aimed by assists from Scottish Forward Fernie. Clough was the Division Two topscorer again for the second consecutive season. The midfield was hit by injuries with Harris and Hilliday delivered a decent performance, meanwhile Day and Burbeck were out for several rounds. McNeil clinched the left back position as starter. In spite of a premier class offensive line, Boro again collapsed due to a weak defensive hit by injuries of Stonehouse and Phillips not being regular starters among Bilcliff and McNeil allowing a lot of goals against both Goalkeepers Taylor and Million. Also, the squad reached the FA Cup third round being eliminated by Sheffield Wednesday.
