Coventry City v Stevenage: Friday, We're In Cov...

Friday, We’re In Cov…

Now, we don’t care if Monday’s blue. Tuesday’s grey, and Wednesday too. Thursday? We don’t care about you. It’s Friday. We’re in Cov. It seems there is something about us and Saturday 3pms at the Ricoh that doesn’t go. First there was Sky, livening up an international break with our mugs …

Dino Maamria highlighted the issue of fitness in his post-match interview following his side's insipid 2-0 loss to near-neighbours Cambridge

Did a Lack of Fitness Hamper Stevenage This Season?

Stevenage’s season looks set to end in mid-table obscurity. Many fans understandably feel disappointed that Boro’ haven’t been able to mount a sustained playoff push this year. There have been plenty of positives throughout the campaign, although a number of negatives outweigh them. There is a decent squad in place, …

Stevenage may not be directly involved, but can still affect the League 2 playoff race

How Boro Games Impact the League 2 Playoff Contenders

It’s clearly not the most exciting position to be in, but Stevenage are comfortably in the no man’s land of mid-table as the season comes to a close. We couldn’t maintain a bright start to the season, with most Boro’ fans now wondering what exactly it is they need to …

FIFA 18 Verdict: Cambridge United (H)

Cambridge United (Home): FIFA 18 Verdict

Just when you thought our FIFA 18 Verdict might have struck gold, Mansfield equalised. Our beef with Boro’s midweek draw is not so much our failure to rise another couple of places in the table than we ultimately have (three instead of one). No, it’s more that our poor, maligned …

Stevenage v Cambridge United: The circus is back in town...

Send In The Clowns…

Oh look, the circus is back in town! If you make any link with the fact that our next game is against Cambridge United indoors, that’s all on you. We have every inch of respect for our near and, let’s face it, less enlightened neighbours. That sentence nearly escaped from …

FIFA 18 Verdict: Mansfield Town (H)

Mansfield Town (Home): FIFA 18 Verdict

It’s not that our FIFA 18 Verdict got it wrong last week, oh no. It’s that Boro’ failed to prove it right. Or at least fulfil its prophecy. You know it, we know it and Newport County know it too. They were lucky to come out just with a 1-0 …

Stevenage v Mansfield Town: Stagadoo-Doo-Doo...

Stagadoo-Doo-Doo…

Push pineapple, and shake that tree! Yes, it’s Mansfield Town indoors – part deux; a second crack at trying to get this fixture noted in the records as ‘Completed’. For our non-dom readers or those of you recently out of hibernation, the last time the Stags were meant to be …

FIFA 18 Verdict: Newport County (A)

Newport County (Away): FIFA 18 Verdict

One of those results, so it was. A 4-1 shallacking that, had our misunderstood FIFA 18 Verdict dared predict it, we’d have all rolled our eyes and gone “oh right, yeah”. That said, it’s rolling back into town after a one-match absence (Or is that ban? Ed.) for Newport County away. And let’s …

Newport County v Stevenage: Gwenton!

Gwenton!

Oh, but wasn’t it written in the stars for all to see? That Dino’s first win as Boro’ boss would come convincingly at the expense of a, quite frankly, buggered Barnet? In the space of one Bank Holiday game, our gaffer saw us score more times against the Bees than …

FIFA 18 Verdict: Grimsby Town (A)

Grimsby Town (Away): FIFA 18 Verdict

Ooooh, the little tinker. It didn’t ‘arf go and get our hopes up last week. New gaffer, new chapter was our FIFA 18 Verdict’s, er, verdict. It didn’t turn out that way though, did it. Rather than stunning Colchester United with a trio of second half goals to take all …
