Ho, ho, fakin’ ho – glad tidings, season’s greetings and whatever else you might want off us this Christmas. As long as it’s under a fiver, mind. Now we’ve hit upon the right festive note to begin, let’s do just that. Begin. And we start with the news that it’s the first …
Barnet on the road, then. It used to be such a simple trip – a hop down the A1 or a short train ride to New Barnet. No more, however. Not since the Bees canned Underhill. The Hive, as most of us will know, is neither in Barnet and nor is …
For some, we’d bet the title of this preview seems almost like the perfect weekend soiree – albeit in reverse. It is a brave man who takes a wee dram, before ballroom dancing his way around the beer garden at Old Town Wetherspoons. But, dearly beloved, we have gathered here to run the rule over something momentous. Not once in …
The magic of the FA Cup… isn’t our concern this week. As the gaze of most League Two sides averts towards the world’s oldest marketed competition (or something), we’re making up ground. Like us, Doncaster Rovers would have been twiddling the thumbs this weekend but for some surprisingly common sense thinking …
Oh, but if we could play all our matches on the road this season. To beat Accrington is never a bad thing, but to do so last week had an inexplicable charm to it. We can’t quite put our finger on it. It could be that, having stopped them gaining promotion …
Wow. It’s been quite a week, don’t you think? After all, it’s not every week that you find yourself on the same side of the argument as ‘that lot’ across the county border. So, how do you cap a week as historic as this? Well, we’ll tell you – with a trip to lovely, lovely Accrington. …
An interesting week, by all accounts. Amid the rubble of the Toblerone fall-out and a foreign nation choosing a rather uncharming geezer to lead them, our woes are a drop in the ocean. Boro’ are out of two cups – achieving that feat within the space of four days. Mind you, you may agree that …
Not for the first time and (hopefully) not for the last, we’ve been trawling through the British Library archives. Our aim, obviously, is to join up yet more dots in Stevenage Football Club’s history. And what better excuse is there than Boro’s big four-zero? After ploughing through copies of The Comet, here’s the second in a series of articles from Boro’s early …
It’s not the best situation to find yourself in. Boro’ face their second cup match in the space of four days – and, with it, the distinct likelihood that we’ll be out of another cup competition. Thankfully, however, tonight’s tie is only the Checkatrade Doo-dah and few will shed tears if the burden of taking part …
Stevenage FC got a much-needed win at Mansfield recently from a superb goal by Harry McKirdy on his debut. Formed 40 years ago, we’ve enjoyed our fair share of success. Now it’s time to look back at some of Boro’s greatest matches over the years. Monday 8 April 1996 – …
