Barnet v Stevenage: It'll be a right old bees up....

A Right Old Bees Up…

Bees Up! A Town Down! Yeah, OK – it’s Boro’s first proper ding dong of the new campaign. To the Hive we go; a date with our flippered friends from Barnet awaiting. This is a fixture that often lives up to expectation. And it is, more often than not, a …

Grim Reapers

Good evening to the assorted band of football enthusiasts and Boro’ well-wishers out there. Yes, let’s join old Uncle BoroGuide at the fireside and peer into the flames; trying to make some sense of where our fine side are at three lessons into the new term. Oh, and to have …

Colchester United v Stevenage: Don't Call Us, We'll Col U...

Don’t Call Us, We’ll Col U…

So, third time lucky. Right? It’d better be. Boro’ have started this new campaign in a similar fashion to how we finished the last. By which, we mean waiting on our next win to come along. Now, of course, we *know* what was then is not what is now. New …

Millwall v Stevenage: Into the Lions' Den...

Into The Lions’ Den…

To those of us in the remedial class, the Carabao Cup sounds like an exotic feast of football; a South American soccer samba if you will. To others, of course, it’s the new, souped-up name for the not-so-glamorous Football League Cup. Yes, that’s right folks. The competition that is third (or …

The Great British Kick Off

Guess what’s back, back again; football’s back, so, uh, do tell a friend. That said, any friend with an ear to the ground is already up to speed with what matters. The new season is now upon us, almost three months since the last one left us high and dry …

July 19 and the brand new season is now very much on the horizon...

The New Season Is A-Coming…

It’s been a long old break. Unless you have a thing for the Confederations Cup or perhaps even the League of Ireland, the summer has offered slim pickings as far as a football fix is concerned. You’ll be glad to know, then, that we’re now just three weeks out from …

Stevenage summer transfer activity: Shakin' it up like a polaroid picture...

Shakin’ It Up Like A Polaroid Picture

In the end, the glow of our great 2016-7 League Two adventure began to fade towards the end of term. After making April Fools of Barnet, Boro’ forgot how to win. And that’s why, of course, the playoffs are taking place without the benefit of our valued input. You’ll no more define our season by …

Stevenage v Mansfield Town: This is three, then it's two, and then it's one...

Three-Two-One

Y’all ready for this? We’re into the last knockings of the 2016-7 League Two season, the death throes if you will. And it’s an idea to strap in tight ‘cos, make no mistake, the final three regular dates promise to contain more ups and downs than an, erm, well, an uppy-downy thing. Boro’ go into this crunch clash with Mansfield …

Stevenage v Morecambe: Shrimples!

Shrimples!

More, more, Morecambe. How do you like it? It’s Easter and, with it, a rather compelling double header. Never mind yer wan Arnold, who gave himself up to save our souls more than 2000 years ago. A place in the playoffs is at stake and we’re likely to know after the next …
