Stevenage have ended their interest in Michael Brough, for now. Graham Westley told the Comet that the two clubs have failed to agree a new loan deal and that any deal is a long way off. Westley stated that he wanted to keep the multi-functional player, but with the clubs not being able to agree a deal, the Boro boss may have to look elsewhere for enforcements to his squad.

Boro face arguably their biggest game of the season against 3rd place Kettering Town at Rockingham Road this weekend. Graham Westley's side, who currently sit 2nd, are six points behind table toppers Oxford United while Kettering are a point further back of Boro, but have a game in hand. 3 points in Northamptonshire would give Boro a bit of breathing space as they challenge for top spot.
