FIFA 20 Verdict: Walsall v Stevenage (23 November 2019)

FIFA 20 Verdict: Walsall (Away)

You can trust FIFA 20 to give you good news. Except when the AI gets ideas above its station and becomes an egit. Is this one of those times? Well, we couldn’t possibly give the game away in the first paragraph. Not if we want you to read on and …

Backs Against The Wal

Back on the bottom, out of the cup, injuries galore and now the caretaker gaffer up on an FA fizzer – it’s fair to say we’ve had better weeks. So, can we make it a bit more palatable? Well, starting out on the road to (some form of) redemption in …

Scunthorpe United v Stevenage – Preview (02 Nov 2019): We have a scun-ning plan. Hopefully...

We Have A Scun-ning Plan…

…or, at least, we’re hoping the gaffer has something up his sleeve for this weekend’s trip to Scunthorpe. It does seem as if we’re making it harder for sides to walk into the Lamex and leave with all three points. And that’s a good thing – yeah? It got us …

Stevenage v Morecambe – Preview: It's a six-point Saturday showdown with the Shrimps...

Six-Point Shrimp Saturday Showdown

Hmm. Us going off on holibobs two weeks ago did the trick then? We’re happy to take any credit – and royalties too – for us beating Grimsby indoors and grab our first league win of the season. But we’re now back and so are the Boro’ blues after our …

Grim'll Fix It – Stevenage v Grimsby Town Preview (12 Oct 2019): Did Boro' do a win? We think we did y'know – but now time to do it in a game that *actually* matters...

Grim’ll Fix It

Now then, is that a win for Boro’ we see before our eyes? Do you know what? We think it might be. After all, we scored one goal and they scored none. And that’s usually enough. But it is also true that an ancient proverb says that, if a team …

Colchester United v Stevenage – Preview: Boro' gotta Col with it, but let's not take too much more time... eh?

You Gotta Col With It…

… you gotta take your time. Or something like that. But, of course, there’s taking your time about things and there’s bumbling your way into the third month of the season with people starting to take notice that your win column is lying empty. The interim gaffer says that our …

'Bridge over Troubled Waters – Stevenage v Cambridge United (28 Sep 2019): So, onto game 13 of the season – unlucky for some, no doubt, but one that'll hopefully go our way... | BoroGuide

‘Bridge Over Troubled Water

So, onto game 13 of the season – unlucky for some, no doubt, but one that’ll hopefully go our way. Isn’t it about time that we won a game of soccerball, though? We so nearly cracked that nut down over the New Lawn last time out didn’t we? Just those …

Green Machine – Forest Green Rovers v Stevenage (21 Sep 2019): Could third time be the charm for Mark Sampson? Or is this infernal wait for a win gonna drag on?

Green Machine

Could third time be the charm for Mark Sampson? Or is this infernal wait for a win gonna drag on? If it does, that does mean we’ll be looking at next week’s game indoors against Cambridge as lucky unlucky 13. But let’s not get ahead of ourselves and write this …

Stevenage v Northampton Town (17 Sep 2019): Daylight Cobblery – New gaffer, same result; but there's no hanging around as we go again in search of that overdue win

Daylight Cobblery

New gaffer, same result – but there’s no hanging around as we go again in search of that overdue win. Carlisle indoors at the weekend was a kick in the teeth after we’d got ahead. Some new bosses get a nice long honeymoon period after taking charge. Mark Sampson had …

Carlisle Be Ready

We’re still on the lookout for our first win of the new season, but now there’s a new sheriff in town. And not that far behind them comes a big blue bus with the words Carlisle United in the front window. It’s a long trip down for our friends in …
