Match Preview – Stevenage v Walsall (29 Feb 2020): Walsall For One...

Walsall For One…

… and one four-all? Well, we won’t say no to the goals for. But we’d prefer to keep the goals against down to a minimum. And we could also do with taking more than a point even if it’s the least we’re being offered. The time has come for us …

Match Preview – Crawley Town v Stevenage (22 Feb 2020): Devils' Advocate?

Devils’ Adovcate?

Any time we leave the country, Boro’ normally start turning on the form. But not this time, apparently. In fact, we ended up with more of the same; losing all three games we were AWOL for. What was a two-horse battle against the drop between us and Morecambe has slowing …

Match Preview – Exeter City v Stevenage (08 Feb 2020): (Not So) Great Expectations

(Not So) Great Exe-pectations

Go back just three weeks and we were cock-a-hoop after Cambridge. Then came Exeter – and four straight defeats! Fine, that trip to Sid James’ Park was only a Leasing.com Trophy tie. But it was the start of a run of results that took us back bottom of League Two, …

The Clock Is Ticking

Let’s look at the stats and take the positives to help get us through the next three months – yeah? It’s the best idea we’ve had since five minutes ago, when we decided to take the lift instead of the stairs. No. Wait! Turns out that’s a really dumb idea. …

The League Two relegation yo-yo battle rumbles on; Boro’ looking and hoping to swap places with Morecambe. Again. So far, both us and them haven’t been able to drag anyone else into this little thing we got going at the foot of the table. That’s even when Macclesfield Town get …

Plym Plym Pler-ee

It’s the second half of this week’s Devon double for Boro’ and it’d be good if this one went our way. After putting in the legwork to get down to Exeter on Tuesday, we were left in no doubt that our time in the Leasing.com Trophy was up. Here we …

Match Preview – Cambridge United v Stevenage (18 Jan 2020): The Bridge on the River Cam

The Bridge On The River Cam

Now stuck deeper in the brown stuff and hoping a trip up to Cambridge can give us a straw to clutch. It’s a hard knock life, innit? Let’s face it – the Us won’t be hangin’ around in trying to make things even worse for us than they are already. …

Latic Be

Now we find ourselves in times of trouble, BoroGuide comes to thee – but speaking words of wisdom? Hmmm, Maybe. Tom Pope’s late penalty for Port Vale, coupled with some guy called Adam Phillips levelling for Morecambe at home to Colchester, plonked us right back on the bottom of the …

Match Preview – Stevenage v Port Vale (11 Jan 2020): Epic Vale!

Epic Vale

So, we’ve gone and done *another* win in the Leasing.com Trophy. Time we gave it a try in the league too? After hauling ourselves through 70 minutes against Colchester United with one less man on the pitch, that precious point was enough to lift us off the bottom of the …

PREVIEW – Col It What U Want: Stevenage v Colchester United (04 Jan 2020)

Col It What U Want

It turns out that old habits DO die hard if our thing for conceding late winners is much to go by. And it also turns out that we couldn’t leave that one behind in 2019 too; Boro’ starting a new year and new decade in exactly the same way that …
