Fresh from the relaxation of an extended weekend (thank you bankers, for once), we can now look back on Saturday’s win with a great deal of satisfaction and pride. There was to be no nasty surprises and no dramatic sucker punches; Boro’ went in and came out of the day …
After 45 games, more than 4,050 minutes and two – or is that three – managers, the 2011/2 season and hopes of achieving an unprecedented third straight promotion hinge on one final match for Stevenage. Yet again, it is at home to Bury… The Shakers had toyed with the lure …
The first award we’re doling out this season isn’t for anyone connected with the club at all. In light of the fact that we could still have another four games left this season, we start the ball rolling with the esteemed folk of the media fraternity. Without these hardy souls, …
It’s fair to say there was a prevailing colour in Sheffield on Saturday, and it’s equally fair to say that colour was blue. Not least given the Boro’ strode out at Bramall Lane attired in the the pure blue away offering, but also for coming away with a valuable point …
Don’t confuse this with some soppy call to arms or anything. OK, do. It’s a big game up at Bramall Lane tomorrow – for both teams – and a victory will do wonders for the prospects of the winner. Sheffield United looking to topple their city rivals in the hunt …
Stevenage is fast becoming the Football League club you can set your watch, or associated timepiece, to. The moment that Boro’ put the ball in the back of the net, you can be sure it is 3.58pm (on Saturdays) or 9.41pm (on weekdays). And always in time to make a …
I worked for my previous employer for 10 years. I’d been through an apprenticeship there, learnt my trade there and was comfortable there. I knew my role inside out, knew everybody and had a lot of friends. Then the company hired a new manager who tried to shake things up …
It’s such a lovely day again, isn’t it? In fact, we just went for a particularly pleasant stroll in and around Hitchin. Yep, “pleasant” and “Hitchin” in the same sentence. Groundbreaking. While we were out, we caught sight of a butterfly. Its wings were red and white with a little …
Well then. For 20-odd minutes at White Hart Lane, it looked as if Boro’ fans would be consigning their history books to, uh, history ahead of the latest reprint taking account of another glorious FA Cup triumph. But as Robbo’s tormented expression showed at the final whistle, this time it …
… it’s enough to make your heart go wooooo-ah. Wooooo-ah. Lala-lala-la-la-lala-la. We have entered the football blogosphere by desecrating an Everton fans’ favourite with a Stevenage twist and it feels bloody good. What is it that we like to profess down our way? Making history. Not living in it. Too …
