How Was It For You?

Much like one of those regrettable liaisons with a member of the opposite sex, no doubt Boro’ fans woke up yesterday morning – and perhaps even this morning – feeling rather awkward and disconsolate. Did that, y’know, happen? There is alas no avoiding the fact that Stevenage were brutally humbled …

Introducing: Paolo Di Canio

As the photo to the left illustrates, Paolo Di Canio is a fairly genial, understated person and is rarely seen to be making waves. Those in the seats behind the away dugout can, therefore, not expect any theatrics as the league season moves on with Swindon at home. How we …

A Load Of Old Toffee – Episode 5: With two spiffing results to discuss, host Steve “Jeremy Paxman” Watkins is joined by regular (t)wits Mark Hollis and Dean Thompson, plus BoroGuide editor Pete Hayman. In episode five, we soar high and debate whether it could actually be possible for Boro’ …

Pomp-ey And Circumstance

Well. That’ll learn us. If we ever feel compelled to be mildly concerned about our prospects for an upcoming game, we’ll do well to take a cue from this week’s wonderful victory at MK Dons. In bouncing back from the defeat at Colchester United so admirably, we also get the …

It’s Easy MK

OK, don’t believe the blog title. It certainly won’t be easy MK. Tomorrow is arguably Boro’s toughest test of the season to date, and it doesn’t help that it comes off the back of our first league defeat of the season. Having gone 10 unbeaten, we’ll have to go some …

Notts Your Flava?

It appears that our failure to blog prior to the Bury game may have contributed to the disappointing draw against our bottom-of-the-league visitors on Saturday. We would prepared something and had intended to do so – but Chris Foy only gave an extra four minutes, which is an insult to …

Riss You Were Here?

“We’ll be top by five o’clock” we sang. But almost in an ironic sense; while it was certainly possible for the mathematics to work in such a manner, it couldn’t happen. Surely? But it did transpire that, for a mere 20 glorious and sunny minutes, we were top of the …

Doncaster, Sugar

It’s the end of a long week and we cannot be bothered to come up a better pun than that. It is no doubt possible to reach a more satisfying conclusion playing with Donny, but do refer back to the “we cannot be bothered” issue. We digress from the point …
