No-one wanted to begin the new season by having our trousers pulled down in our own backyard by Notts County. But that’s how it panned out. And that’s what we have to deal with. Unfortunately for new gaffer Teddy Sheringham (for it is still he), Boro’ have to make the …
“I’m no good at judging the size of crowds Ted, but I’d say there’s about 17 million of them out there” – It would be that time of the year again, then. It’s nearly three months since Boro’ last kicked a ball in anger, but League Two action is back once again with the renegade …
Don’t tell us that we’re crazy and don’t tell us we’re nowhere; take it from us, it’s hip to be all square. From the six League Two playoffs, our semi-final first leg against Southend United is one of just two to finish level after the first 90 minutes. That means …
A General Election can’t decide the fourth team to go up. So, it reverts to the end-of-season japes that you’ll know as the League Two playoffs. Four sides are up for this one, including our dear Boro’. But there’s nothing more we can expect from this first sparring contest than …
This one is huge, isn’t it. No, wait, it’s bigger than that – it’s large. If you’ve got a football history book at home, take it out and throw it in the bin – it’s worthless. The history books will now have to be rewritten. But what will they say? …
If you can, cast your mind back to the year of Arnold 2005 and the glitzy surroundings of Stoke’s Britannia Stadium. After we had been weeping like a willow in the race for the Football League, we were almost there. Carlisle United, however, had other ideas and our one hope, …
Accrington – it doesn’t quite have the same appeal you’ll get in places like Monaco, New York, the Bahamas or even Swindon. But here we are, facing the idea of a trip up to the Lancashire town as the League Two campaign hurtles ever closer to its end for another year. If you aren’t …
Late winners are wonderful things. Make it a late winner against Northampton Town and Chris Wilder and you might as well multiply the effect by a bazillion. The weekend win over the Cobblers got its groove on with other results to put us in a decent position as far as …
After the quick-fire turnaround of two games in four days last weekend thanks to the extended Easter weekend, Stevenage FC are in pretty much the same situation this weekend. But don’t be getting your hopes up – it’s not another Bank Holiday festival, just a Saturday/Tuesday combo that has the potential to …
First up was the team that are second bottom in the division, and next up to complete the second half of our Easter Double Act are the mob propping up the table as things stand. That’s right, it’s Cheltenham Town down at their gaff and points are starting to become a must …
