You can tell it must be almost Christmas as the games start to come thick and fast; two home fixtures in the space of a week too. After opening the gates to Scunthorpe United in midweek, now we have Carlisle United calling in. Our hope, if it wasn’t too much …
Hard to believe that it’s two weeks since we were last in league action. And we’re coming back home the Lamex to get back at it The heady cocktail of cup adventures (however unsuccessful they’ve proven to be) and the high winds that blew Prenton Park away means we’re almost …
After getting the better of a team one division above us, can Boro’ keep their FA Cup run on track at a team one division below? Well, there are two things that worry us in this Round Two tie. The first is that we’re off to a ground where our …
Prenton Park isn’t the happiest historical hunting ground for Boro’ over the years. But our last visit there went our way, so why not again? As we slowly inch our way back down south after a point at Rochdale in midweek, what of the challenge we face against Rovers? Before …
Now, we’ve only ever been to Rochdale once before – and it was a bloody good day out. Asking too much for a repeat performance? Let’s face it, the context of that inaugural trip to the Crown Oil Arena in September 2011 aren’t far off where we’re at now. The …
We could do with our next oppo being a side that we always seem to beat. Instead, next in line will be Colchester United. To be fair, looking towards historical head-to-head records for some sort of short-term salvation is a little bit desperate. And just because – let’s say – …
It’s now eight seasons on the spin that we’ve had the Stags on our schedule; a fact that maybe dazzles us more than it should? It all started with our initial and – frankly – goal-crazy intros in our Blue Square Premier days. But, like Northwich Victoria or Altrincham were …
The abject display that was Newport away last week made it a very long week to be a Boro’ fan. And we just can’t see MK Dons away as being the cure. The FA Cup Round One draw didn’t look all that kind on paper when it came out of …
Here we go then, our annual European adventure; Boro’ on the westway to Wales for our League Two away day at Newport County. And no, that gag will never get old. C’mon, we’re not going to be playing in the Europa GM Vauxhall Conference League (or whatever it’s called) any …
It seems that October, the month of Halloween, is a month of bogey teams for Boro’ – Leyton Orient up next to test our mettle. First, there was Exeter City. Then came Oxford United in the Papa Don’t Preach Trophy. And then there was Northampton Town on the road. It’s …
