A quick word

FC Boro 29 September @ 06:32 PM EST

I haven't got an internet connection until the weekend, but thought I better put something up tonight after a superb result and performance away at Luton Town. I arrived about 45 mins before kick off after finding somewhere to park in the ghetto! The atmosphere was electric in the ground. The Boro fans can be very proud of themselves tonight.

Boro miss big opportunity after being held by Grays

FC Boro 23 September @ 04:54 PM EST

With Luton, Cambridge and Oxford all dropping points, Stevenage missed a big oppoortunity to close the gap on the leaders of the Blue Square Premier after being held at home by lowly Grays. The Essex side came into the game after a run of 3 straight defeats, but frustrated Westley's side all evening.

Barrow Preview

FC Boro 13 August @ 03:43 PM EST

Next up for Stevenage is the longest trip of the season and hopefully, like last season, the venue where Boro win their first 3 points of the season. The start of the season has been a bit of an anti-climax compared with the way we ended the last campaign. At the moment, two poor performances have yielded just two points against newly promoted opposition and a lot more was expected when the fixtures were announced.

Wrexham striker Jefferson Louis drops the F-bomb on Setanta Sports

Who Ate All the Pies 04 May @ 12:14 PM EST
Wrexham striker Jefferson Louis scores a lovely goal in his side's victory over Altrincham. He is substituted before the end and obliges the pitchside reporter with a frank analysis of why he came off. A little too frank for Setanta Sports' liking! This is the television gods punishing those who think it is acceptable to break away from the match to interview someone during the game. Click to continue reading...

Video: Michael Welch scores from 70 yards for Altrincham against Crawley Town

Off the Post 21 April @ 01:32 AM EST
One man who is glad of Setanta's TV coverage! Apparently, this strike from Michael Welch is a couple of weeks old now but I am sure he will excuse our tardiness as we bring his 70-yard strike against Crawley Town to move viewers! Spotted on 101GG Share on Facebook Click to continue reading...

Easter Round Up

FC Boro 13 April @ 03:52 PM EST

Sorry for the lack of updates over the Easter period, but I've been very busy. I hope you all had a great easter. In football terms, it couldn't of got much better on the pitch. After bouncing back last Tuesday with a win over rivals Cambridge, Graham Westley's side have gone back to where they were before the defeat at Kidderminster.

Last minute winner keeps run going

FC Boro 02 March @ 03:24 PM EST
It wasn't the performance that fans have been used to in recent weeks, but Stevenage got the win they needed to continue their unbeaten run and stay in 4th position in the Blue Square Premier. A 93rd minute goal from Mark Roberts meant the Hertfordshire side took all 3 points back with them down the M6. Click to continue reading...

Altrincham Preview

FC Boro 28 February @ 06:43 AM EST
Not much of a preview, just a short blog today as I don't have much time. Boro travel to Manchester this afternoon to face Altrincham as they look to extend their unbeaten run further. Last season saw PT's Boro win convincingly there, while the season before Mark Stimson's side lost on the opening day. Click to continue reading...

Boylan goal secures vital victory

FC Boro 25 February @ 04:10 PM EST
Lee Boylan's strike on the hour may just be one of the most important goals scored at Broadhall Way this season. The one goal was enough to see off a Woking side, who lacked any sort of attacking threat, but gave a honest performance which may help them in their fight against relegation in the [...] Click to continue reading...

McMahon’s injury worse than first feared

FC Boro 30 September @ 11:07 AM EST
Daryl McMahon could be out for longer than was first feared as Phil Wallace said in his programme notes that X-Rays had confirmed that McMahon has broken his ankle. This all stems from the Altrincham game where Boro ran out 3-0 winners. Chris Lane, who else, made a tackle near the East Terrace and only got a [. Click to continue reading...

7.30pm Rushden & Diamonds v Altrincham, Blue Square Premier, Setanta Sports 1
The Diamonds will be going hell for leather tonight as a win will see them jump from tenth to third in the Blue Square Conference table. On current form that seems quite likely, so our money's going on Garry Hill's mob. Click to continue reading...

Boro continue to improve as Alty are brushed aside

FC Boro 13 September @ 12:59 PM EST
Boro's recent improvement continued as Altrincham were beaten convincingly at Broadhall Way this afternoon. Boro dominated the game from start to finish and outclassed a team who just shouldn't be in this division. Altrincham were always going to put 10 men behind the ball as they looked to take a point back to Cheshire. Click to continue reading...

Altrincham Preview

FC Boro 11 September @ 03:32 PM EST
Altrincham are the next visitors to Broadhall Way as Boro look to continue where they left off after beating Burton Albion 4-1 last weekend. That win would of given the team a lot of confidence going into Saturday's game and hopefully they can repeat their performance against an Altrincham side who are already in their customary position of 20th.

End of the road for Halifax Town

SoccerLens 12 May @ 08:45 PM EST
It has not been a season to cheer about for Halifax Town fans. Struggling at the wrong end of the table, getting into administration and taking a ten point penalty that meant they only managed to avoid relegation on the last day of the season. But there will be no more fighting for the belegured [... Click to continue reading...
