As a tight-knit club, it’s good to keep things in the family? And we’ve certainly seen some close family ties over the years. After all, it’s easy for clubs to go out and bring in a player or two from the same club. Or even from the same country. But …
This piece was written for the Stevenage v Newcastle United programme in 1998, before their controversial tie at Broadhall Way that was broadcast around the world on TV. Stevenage Borough FC was founded in 1976; the year of Kevin Keegan curly perms and the kind of fashions you tend to …
After last week’s awful goalless draw against Southend, Boro’s reward is to be banished as far north as League Two will allow. It is pure coincidence, we’ll have you know, that we just happen to be down to drop in on Carlisle United at the same time. We can at …
“Woop, we can hear the Byron coming”; striker Byron Harrison sure made his mark at the Lamex when he arrived in January 2011. Boro’ boss Graham Westley had gone in search of some extra firepower for his attack. And what he came back with was an undiscovered talent fresh from …
Oh – how close we came to a priceless win on the road midweek. No time to dwell, however. It’s back home for another big match; Southend United indoors, and a match that we cannot really be seen to lose. We’d even go as far to say that a draw …
As we return to League Two action with a big spring in our step, can we build on a promising few days to bring home another win? The FA Cup is what it is. We’re into Round Three – who ain’t happy about that? But it’s not the bread and …
Good Game: The series looking at the amazing, utterly memorable, unbelievably dramatic and downright ludicrous games that involved Stevenage Borough over the years. But we’ll insist that we accept no blame for memories warped by time, age or alcohol consumption at the time. We’ll never refer to any games involving …
Joy? Hmm. Relief? Oh yes. But whatever your feelings about our first league win in ages, we gotta put them to one side here. Boro’ could’ve perhaps done with following up on our three points against Vale in midweek with another league outing to be honest. It’d give us a …
After finding ourselves on the wrong end of the result on Saturday (again), is Revs drinking in the last chance saloon as Port Vale come to town? The signs aren’t looking at all good for us at the moment. But we said that before Bolton came and went with their …
You won’t find us crying over our Papa John’s Trophy exit. But one more winless league game and it could be a different story; Bolton Wanderers up next for a first-ever meeting between the two sides. For the Trotters, you could say that they’ve had it much worse in recent …
