Boro to host Conference fixture

Middlesbrough have agreed to allow Gateshead to play their final game of the Conference Premier season at the Riverside Stadium.

The Tynesiders have already played four matches at other grounds during the current campaign due to an unplayable pitch at their own International Stadium.

"I am delighted that Middlesbrough FC have been able to help us out," Gateshead chairman Graham Wood is quoted as saying by BBC Sport.

"I would like to express my gratitude to [chairman] Steve Gibson and everyone at Boro."

Gateshead will take on Ebbsfleet United at the Riverside Stadium on April 20.
