After the rare treat that is back-to-back home games (no, the Papa John’s Trophy doesn’t count), Boro’ are going out on the road again; to Oldham Athletic’s Boundary Park. We can make a song and dance about how long it’s been. But the truth is that it’s only six-and-a-bit months …
A point at Harrogate was a massive improvement on the previous week’s thumping – but a win still eludes us. So, can Pools oblige? Well, if they certainly count as one of the teams that Boro’ used to be able to depend on for three points. Looking back over our …
After last week’s mess, the last thing we need is to play another team making a fast start to the season – and yet here we are. Harrogate Town are only just into their second-ever campaign at this level. But you wouldn’t know it from the assured way in which …
Now that Morecambe have left us and Woking are no longer relevant, Forest Green Rovers are the most familiar faces we ever knew. After we first came across this quaint village side during the early stages of the 1998-9 season, it was a struggle to separate us. It’s why we …
Boro’ are unbeaten in six against our old friends from Gander Green Lane. And it’s been a while since that was put to the test. In fact, the last time we met them was when we were still getting over the complete non-event that was the Millennium Bug. Yep, it’s …
Here’s a fact about our record versus Swindon Town: Giuliano Grazioli has scored in a quarter of the encounters we’ve won. Yep – the hero of the County Ground back in 1998 knows how it feels to get the better of the Robins, which isn’t something a lot of Boro’ …
We hope this doesn’t sound as too mean, but – to us – the lads from Walsall are a bit “meh”; not a team that gets you excitedWe hope this doesn’t sound as too mean, but – to us – the lads from Walsall are a bit “meh”; not a …
Ouch. Let’s get back on the winning path quick sharp and forget that our midweek drubbing at Valley Parade ever took place. Yep, that sounds like a good enough deal to us. But can we make it happen at home to a Port Vale side looking for their first win …
We’re covering some distance in a short space of time; our next away day leading us to Bradford – and an unhappy hunting ground for Boro’. Four times we’ve been to Valley Parade, now called the Utilita Energy Stadium for sponsorship reasons. And three times we’ve come away with little to show. …
Now, call us paranoid or what have you, but we can’t help think that Bristol Rovers are a side who have been trying to avoid us. Just as it seemed over the years that our paths might cross, they end up missing. Is it the lingering guilt from taking Barry …
