Boro Roll On & Wrexham Preview

FC Boro 20 October @ 05:42 AM EST

Boro's good form continued on Saturday with a hard working win against Salisbury. Boro lined up with Bostwick one again at centre half and Yemi Odubade continuing up front alongside former Salisbury man Charlie Griffin.

Last Minute Equaliser Halts Boro

FC Boro 07 October @ 03:02 PM EST

After a fantastic result against local rivals Luton last Tuesday night, Boro returned to action against a much improved York team who found themselves in the playoff places after a poor season last year. Martin Foyle has signed some good players over the summer and have certainly made a claim to be this years surprise package.

Chester Preview

FC Boro 18 September @ 01:25 PM EST

After dramatic victory against Mansfield last Saturday, Boro return to action tomorrow against bottom side Chester. After having 25 points deducted at the start of the season it was always going to be an up hill struggle for Chester to overcome and 9 points from their opening 9 games have not given them a great start either.

Its the battle of 17th versus 18th in the Blue Square Premier tomorrow night.

Boro beat Brighton plus preview of Cambridge City game

FC Boro 20 July @ 01:52 PM EST

Stevenage continued their impressive start to pre-season with a 2-1 victory over Brighton. I didn't get to the game, but after reading the reports on the forum and Comet it sounds like it was a well deserved win over the League 1 opposition. Even some Brighton players, media and fans on their message board have stated that Boro were well worth the victory and the team looked good enough to be a league side.

SA AGM 2009

FC Boro 23 June @ 04:47 PM EST

The Stevenage Borough Supporters Association annual meeting took place tonight at the Broadhall Suite for the 2008/2009 campaign. Again, it has been another tough year for the SA, with subscriptions reaching their lowest level since the first season in 1994. However, another profit has been recorded, although a lot of that was down to the club reaching the FA Trophy Final last season.

Boro’s start - statistically speaking

FC Boro 09 October @ 05:02 PM EST
It's been a rollercoaster start to Stevenage's 15th consecutive season in the top level of non-league football.

Boro lose in Devon…..again!

FC Boro 05 October @ 05:29 AM EST

With so many players leaving Broadhall Way during the summer, here is where some of them ended up.

A great name! A great Canberra football name.
And congratulations to Dane Milovanovic and Sam Munro on being named in the Young Socceroos side to play in the upcoming ASEAN tournament.

The season so far…..Part 1

FC Boro 15 September @ 04:10 PM EST
We are just under a fifth of the way through the season and it's already been a rollercoaster ride. New manager Graham Westley was in his second spell in charge of the club and had assembled a strong squad. After a good pre-season, expections were high and the "buzz" was back at Broadhall Way.  That good feeling though [. Click to continue reading...

Lopo’s View

FC Boro 13 September @ 04:22 PM EST
With the new season now well under way, a mixture of results and a division where anyone can beat anyone on their day leaves us in 18th place, but only 8 points off the top and 6 points off the play-offs. After two straight defeats against Wrexham and Eastbourne we needed 3 more games to pick up our first win. Click to continue reading...

Stevenage struggle to get started

SoccerLens 26 August @ 04:40 AM EST

Who’ll be staying in the Blue Square Premier next season

SoccerLens 08 April @ 01:40 AM EST
Just as teams in the Championship are stuttering as the finish line for the prize of Premiership football gets ever closer, so the contenders for the playoffs in the Blue Square Premier are also doing their hardest to avoid a top five finish, with just half a dozen games to go. Aldershot have no such worries. Click to continue reading...
