PREVIEW – Northampton Town v Stevenage: New Year, New Decade, New Hope? (01 January 2020)

New Year, New Decade, New Hope?

We’re starting a brand-new year at the bottom of the table – so things can actually only get better. Like, they can’t get worse per se. There’s nowhere below us to go. Sure, things could stay the same. And, in a way, that’s as bad as getting worse. If we’re …

MATCH PREVIEW: Devon Sent – Plymouth Argyle v Stevenage (29 December 2019)

Devon Sent

Not quite the belated Christmas present we wanted on Boxing Day, but it’ll do us to start with. To be fair, GW’s first game back in charge couldn’t have been much worse than that 5-1 tonking against Crewe. A clean sheet and a hard-earned point against a team fighting away …

PREVIEW: A Day For Boxing – Stevenage v Forest Green Rovers (26 December 2019)

A Day For Boxing

The latest GW era starts on Boxing Day – and it looks like there’s much work to be done. To be fair, we all know someone who made an egit of themselves at the office Christmas Party. So, it ain’t like humiliation isn’t part and parcel of the festive period. …

MATCH PREVIEW: Stevenage v Crewe Alexandra (20 Dec 2019) – Crewe? They Know It's Christmas?

Crewe? They Know It’s Christmas?

Here we go, our festive elves; Boro’s last match before Christmas and hoping for that new boss bounce. Never mind the fact that we’re bothered about already using the title “All We Want For Christmas Is Crewe“, this could make or break our seasonal mood. And this is a strange …

Preview – Away In Some Danger: Newport County v Stevenage (14 Dec 2019)

Away In Some Danger

‘Twas the last away day before Christmas, and we could do with an early present or two at Dave Parade. Keeping back all our goals for the Leasing.com Trophy might get us a date at Wembley next April, but it might also get us two dates with Boreham Wood and …

Preview – Surely Crawley: Stevenage v Crawley Town (07 Dec 2019)

Surely Crawley?

Two goals AND a win on the road? It ain’t like us. But let’s hope we can bring it back indoors here. League Two has come a-calling for the first time in what seems like ages. And, yet, it’s only been a fortnight since our last outing. It’s been enough …

PREVIEW: Col U Maybe? – Colchester United v Stevenage (03 Dec 2019)

Col U Maybe…

Now that we’re into the knockout stages of this pot, we thought we may as well start taking it seriously. After all, it’s not that we’ve much else to float our boat this season. For at least the next few hours, there’s the dream that we’ll make it all the …

FIFA 20 Verdict: Walsall v Stevenage (23 November 2019)

FIFA 20 Verdict: Walsall (Away)

You can trust FIFA 20 to give you good news. Except when the AI gets ideas above its station and becomes an egit. Is this one of those times? Well, we couldn’t possibly give the game away in the first paragraph. Not if we want you to read on and …

PREVIEW – Walsall v Stevenage (23 Nov 2019): Backs Against The Wal

Backs Against The Wal

Back on the bottom, out of the cup, injuries galore and now the caretaker gaffer up on an FA fizzer – it’s fair to say we’ve had better weeks. So, can we make it a bit more palatable? Well, starting out on the road to (some form of) redemption in …

BoroGuide's FIFA 20 Verdict

FIFA 20 Verdict: Peterborough United (Away)

Oh baby, it’s cold outside. That’s why we’re basking in the warm glow of the PS4 Pro to get the FIFA 20 take on who might win this cup replay. It’s Posh, part deux for us – with Marcus Maddison’s long-range chancer the reason why we’re not knee-deep in prep …
