It’s quite incredible how our recent run – 10 points from a possible 12 – has the ability to transform Boro’s fortunes. The bottom 10 is separated by just eight points at the moment, so it’s maybe not that surprising that a string of results can have a massive impact …
Welcome, welcome, and why not have a seat? Now close your eyes – we’re about to head back in time to this stage of the season last year. On 9 March, Tranmere Rovers defeated Oldham Athletic at Prenton Park to revive their hopes of going up. A month before, they …
Ah yes, Crawley Town. For those of you making the trip down to sunny West Sussex for this one, we’re told that there is no rain forecast. It means you don’t have to check your travel insurance policy to make sure it covers “wasted time” – we can’t see how …
“To G.W. Our Star, Our Perfect Silence” G.W. – who do you figure that is? George Washington? Gary Wilmot? … Graham Westley? You got us! Time is running out and the stakes are getting ever higher, but the win against Crewe Alexandra has given us reason to think there’s a …
“Quick as a flash, I replied, ‘Don’t be blue, Peter!’ Needless to say, I had the last laugh.” The circus is in town! The circus is in town! You know a Stevenage game has the potential to pull in the crowds when the Fairlands car park is put out of …
Good wibble. Like many of the teams towards the top end of the League One table, Leyton Orient are little more than a tiny speck as we look the long way up from the dingy surroundings of bottom place. Defeat at Rotherham United wasn’t the end of the world, but …
Rotherham United have “mirrored” the achievements of Stevenage, following promotion to League One – that’s the verdict of our Graham. The Millers are looking good to end up in the playoff places come the end of the season and you’ve gotta hand it to Steve Evans. He’s doing a nifty …
Do you remember our trip to Wolverhampton back in November? It isn’t a trick question – and we completely understand if you’ve chosen to forget any memories you may have of that particular city. The hosts, they sang “we’ll never play you again” as if to have us think the …
Has it stopped raining? Do we actually think we might see some football this week? It’d be nice to think so – one-and-a-half weeks since the Everton game and two-and-a-half weeks since our last league game, we were starting to get withdrawal symptoms. First up now we have a fixture …
