Right, what does festive football mean to you? Is it the traditional Boxing Day fixture? Or how about the New Year’s Day games that’ll shake off your hangover – for better or for worse? Both are legit answers, to be fair. But let’s not forget about all the footballing frolics we …
You know the drill. It’s Christmas time and it, traditionally, means all sorts of social gatherings; out with friends or having the fam around for some hearty scran. You also have all the gift buying, food prep, and travel arrangements to figure out. With so much to plan, it’s almost …
We’re no strangers to getting on the wrong side of others over the years. And we’ve wound up some teams more than most – such as these five Stevenage rivals. And that feeling is, of course, mutual. You aren’t proper rivals if the irrational hatred doesn’t flow both ways – …
Bees Up! A Town Down! Yeah, OK – it’s Boro’s first proper ding dong of the new campaign. To the Hive we go; a date with our flippered friends from Barnet awaiting. This is a fixture that often lives up to expectation. And it is, more often than not, a …
Ah, April Fool’s Day. To quote Shania’s brother (Really? Ed.), Mark Twain: The day upon which Barnet fans are reminded of what they are on the other 364. Back to the Lamex, then, for the latest chapter in the unfolding drama that’s the League Two promotion race. We may not have got everything we had wanted from …
Barnet on the road, then. It used to be such a simple trip – a hop down the A1 or a short train ride to New Barnet. No more, however. Not since the Bees canned Underhill. The Hive, as most of us will know, is neither in Barnet and nor is …
Barnet indoors, then. We like to think we’re good eggs here at BoroGuide HQ, treating those less fortunate than ourselves with grace, compassion and patience. But, when it comes to our lowly guests this weekend, we just can’t do that. The Bees come to the Lamex with a five-point advantage over us …
Morning everyone. It’s a strange one, but we’re almost willing to overlook last weekend’s 3-2 defeat at Plymouth – the Pilgrims sit pretty at the top of the table, while we’ve struggled to keep our head above water for most of the campaign. It wasn’t much of a surprise that we …
Much like the rest of the universe up there above September’s gloomy clouds, Barnet is somewhere that scientists still continue the search for signs of intelligent life. As humble Boro’ fans of cheeky wit and noble intention, we can do our bit to assist in this apparently fruitless task by spending a couple of hours …
