Jamie Phoenix, a man who epitomises everything Les Rosbifs stands for, has finally reappeared on the international football scene in far-flung Albania. Phoenix, who has a string of clubs in England and abroad to his name, including Altrincham, Stafford Rangers, Bolton Wanderers (perhaps) and Manchester City (perhaps), is currently on trial with Superliga side KS [.

Two wins from the next four games is all that is needed to win Stevenage promotion to the football league. Boro's 2-0 win against Forest Green, plus Luton's failure to beat Tamworth means that if Graham Westley's side beat both Altrincham and Kidderminster away from home this week, they will be confirmed as Blue Square Premier Champions for 2009/2010 with 2 games still left to play.

Saturday's win against Forest Green, plus Luton's failure to beat Tamworth means that Stevenage will clinch promotion from the BSP if they collect maximum points from their next two games. It's fitting that those games are against two sides that have been in and around the Conference for as long as we have.

Well we never do things the easy way do we? We were by no way at our best last night, but we did just enough to come away from Moss Lane with 3 vital points. It's these sorts of games that if you win then you just know it's going to be your year. However, it certainly didn't look like that 10 minutes from time.

The first player to extend his contract with Stevenage this summer is Charlie Griffin according to this morning's NLP. The paper says that he has signed a one year deal and plans to return from injury in time for pre-season. It's the first bit of news that we've heard regarding new contracts for both players and the management and I think it's safe to assume that Westley's contract has been sorted if he has started talking to players about next season.

I've seen this idea implemented on other sites many times, but thought I'd execute it as comprehensively as I could on the blog a side made up of players whose surnames are also names of countries. If you have any other ideas of who could be in this team then please leave your suggestions in the comments section.

My Football Manager journey began back in 1993. I was playing the Commodore Amiga, the game was called Championship Manager and the makers went by the unimpressive name of Domark. If you are wondering how this relates to the game currently known as Football Manager then this story is probably not for you.
