The king is dead, long live the king! The arrival of June this week won’t have come as too much of a surprise; not if you’ve been keeping tabs on the Cliff Richard calendar in your kitchen. But with only 200-odd shopping days left til Christmas, the start of this summer (no laughing back …
The little whisperers that can often be heard in footballing circles have, it seems, turned their attention to our humble abode. If Sky Sports sources are to be believed, Stevenage Football Club are being allowed to talk to an employee of West Ham United Football Club. Does that mean it’s …
It seems to be the week for “interesting” analogies – first, we had Russell Slade moan about our deep sea defending on Tuesday night, and now Graham Westley has told the press that Steve Evans – this weekend’s opposing manager – is “a pussycat really“. The most alarming thing for …
Let’s be honest, it’s not going to come as much of a surprise to learn that Graham Westley has saved on the cost of a postage stamp this Christmas and decided not to pass on any of his season’s greetings to Karl Robinson. That might have been your opinion already, …

It’s not quite your four-minute warning, but now is the time to start thinking about how to Protect and Survive as the end is nearly upon us. The only thing between us, three-and-a-half-months without football and Boro’ withdrawal symptoms is today’s showdown at the Lamex Stadium against The Best Team …
Right then, did the 3-1 scoreline really tell the full story of our Tranmere adventure on Sunday? For us, we have to disagree with Ronnie Moore’s assertion that the home side “deserved” the victory. Now, we’re obviously going to a little biased here but were they even the better side …
A bolt from the blue this Wednesday lunchtime? Or was it pretty much nailed on after last night’s tame defeat at Bury? Either way you look at it, Gary Smith’s era at the Boro’ is now at an end. It’ll probably go down as “mutual consent” reading the club’s statement, …
Please don’t get us wrong, See we’ll forgive you with a song we’ll call the Likely Lads. But if it’s left to you, We know exactly what you’d do with all the dreams we had… ‘Cause blood runs thicker, Oh, we’re big-strong-and-physical, you know; If it’s important to you, it’s …
Sometimes it feels as if you’re in a group of people standing close to a rather large hole and your only saving grace is that there are a few more in front of you. Of course, things as they stand mean that we’re a good foot from the edge of …
