A perfect combination of power and pace is what made Yemi Odubade such an integral, yet understated, part of our 2010 title-winning side. If you had to pick a five-a-side team made up of our champion cohort, some picks would – of course – be obvious. We’d bet you’d pick …
Ouch. Let’s get back on the winning path quick sharp and forget that our midweek drubbing at Valley Parade ever took place. Yep, that sounds like a good enough deal to us. But can we make it happen at home to a Port Vale side looking for their first win …
We’re covering some distance in a short space of time; our next away day leading us to Bradford – and an unhappy hunting ground for Boro’. Four times we’ve been to Valley Parade, now called the Utilita Energy Stadium for sponsorship reasons. And three times we’ve come away with little to show. …
As we struggled to get used to life playing in the GM Vauxhall Conference, one man we turned to for a lift was Vasili Kalogeracos. At the time, Boro’ had been unable to build on a 3-0 win away to Stafford Rangers on the opening day of the 1994-5 season. …
Now, call us paranoid or what have you, but we can’t help think that Bristol Rovers are a side who have been trying to avoid us. Just as it seemed over the years that our paths might cross, they end up missing. Is it the lingering guilt from taking Barry …
After a long 18 months locked down, it’s so lovely to catch up with old friends yet again. And Luton Town? Yeah, them too. Why not? It’s the new normal; we’re happy to extend a hand to our near neighbours from across county lines. To be fair, we do so …
At long last, it’s time to kick off a new League Two campaign – and, not for the first time, we do it against Cumbria’s second-best team. With the Euros taking place over the summer, it feels as if we’ve lost all idea of time. No football deprivation means we …
Everyone else has been lining up to give their verdicts on how they see the 2021-2 League Two campaign will pan out – so why not us too? We probably won’t be too much cop at the standard po-faced analysis you can normally expect at this time of year. We …
It’s not often you find a one-club man these days. Even our highest appearance makers, Ronnie Henry and Mark Smith, turned out for other clubs in their time. But, in a parallel universe, Jose Whishaw is a genuine one club man. Such was his affinity for Stevenage, you can even …
For us as a young team, the 1980-1 campaign was a milestone moment; the very first time that Stevenage Borough Football Club took the step up into senior football. After starting out in the open surrounds of the King George V Playing Fields, Boro’ came ‘back home’ to Broadhall Way. …
