Barrow up next

0
Stevenage make their longest trip of the season this weekend when they face newly promoted Barrow. The 542 mile round trip comes on the back of 5 poor results which has seen Boro take just 2 points. At the moment Graham Westley's men are 23rd in the table with opponents Barrow in 3rd place after gaining 10 points from the [. Click to continue reading...

Lewis to return to Broadhall Way?

0
No not Junior Lewis, but Stuart Lewis could soon be back at Broadhall Way in a loan deal. Stevenage are apparently looking into the possibility of bringing him back in a loan deal. Gillingham manager Mark Stimson has made the former Tottenham and Barnet midfielder available on loan in order to get more first team football.

Boro improve, but are held at home

0
After Saturday's shambles at Ebbsfleet, Stevenage improved to give their best performance of the season so far against Crawley today. Unfortunately though it wasn't good enough for the three points after a mix up in the Boro box led to Glenn Wilson hammering in the equaliser, but the performance on the whole gives some hope going [.

Woeful Boro hit for four at Ebbsfleet

0
That's 3 defeats, 1 draw, 2 goals scored and 13 goals conceded in the first 4 games of the new season. Not the start that Phil Wallace was hoping for upon the return of Graham Westley. Also alarmingly the home defeat to Eastbourne now looks even worse as they have conceded 9 goals since their visit to [. Click to continue reading...

“Be patient” - Westley

0
Graham Westley has given his monthly view to the Comet. Westley basically makes excuses for why Boro have started poorly and are yet to deliver "attractive" football. He talks about how things take time and for the fans to be patient after a poor start to the new season. "That does not mean that we will [. Click to continue reading...

This Westcarr situation

0
It was confirmed this afternoon that Craig Westcarr has re-joined Kettering Town, the club he apparently left in the summer. This whole saga has been a nightmare. When the deal started Kettering chairman Imraan Ladaak accused Stevenage of "illegally approaching" Westcarr who was out of contract this summer. Click to continue reading...

Boro 1-1 Weymouth

1
Graham Westley and Stevenage Borough are still looking for their first win of the season after being held at home by a very "professional" Weymouth side managed by former Chelsea boss John Hollins. Changes were made to the team after Tuesday's poor showing against Eastbourne with Luke Oliver, Daryl McMahon and Calum Willock coming into the side [. Click to continue reading...

Attractive or winning football?

0
In light of Graham Westley's recent comments on the official site where he talked about his aim to get Boro to play a more expansive game that is pleasing on the eye, even though he knows that a direct game would win football matches, I thought I'd give my views on this contentious issue. This is a topic that has been talked about nationally [. Click to continue reading...

3rd time lucky?

0
Stevenage host unbeaten Weymouth tomorrow afternoon looking to get some points on the board at the 3rd time of asking. After the opening day hammering at Wrexham, Boro looked to try and get back to winning ways in midweek, but were soundly beaten by Eastbourne Borough. Not only have the results been poor, but certain players are [. Click to continue reading...

Lopo’s View

1
With the season finally underway and two games under the belt it would be fair to say that it hasn't been the great start that I was hoping for! When Wrexham was announced as our first game back in July I would of settled for a draw even before really seeing the squad. We have tended to struggle [. Click to continue reading...

Poor start continues

0
Well, this game was supposed to be the game when Boro's season kicked into action. Instead another poor defensive display and a lack of creativity in the final third led to Stevenage being beaten by newly promoted Eastbourne by 3 goals to 1. Graham Westley made 3 changes from the team that started against Wrexham on [. Click to continue reading...

Eastbourne next up

Stevenage aim to bounce back after Saturday's heavy defeat to Wrexham with a win on Tuesday night at home to newly promoted Eastbourne Boro. The south coast side lost their first game in the Blue Square Premier on Saturday to Rushden & Diamonds thanks to a Rob Wolleaston penalty and won't be looking forward to their [.

Boro hammered on opening day

1
Stevenage's first game of the new season was one to forget after they were thrashed 5-0 by Wrexham at the Racecourse Ground. Boro now prop up the Blue Square Premier table on goal difference after a shambolic performance in the second half in North Wales. Not only was it a bad result, but defensively we looked [.

Wrexham Preview

Boro kick off their new season tomorrow afternoon with a trip to North Wales and newly relegated Wrexham. After a reasonably good pre-season Boro are quietly confident of getting a result on the opening day, although they will have to improve their recent opening day record of recent seasons. Wrexham meanwhile are a much changed [. Click to continue reading...

Pre-Season Review

0
It was just over 3 weeks ago that we played our first pre-season game down at Gillingham. It seems like a lot longer than that. In that time Boro have played 11 games, winning 6, losing 3 and drawing 2. They have scored 30 goals, but have conceded 15. It has been a very intensive time for the players with [.

Wednesday Round Up

0
Stevenage finished pre-season in style with a 7-1 victory over Slough Town. Lee Boylan hit 5 goals as he aims to push for a place in Saturday's team at Wrexham. Other goals from Andy Drury and Calum Willock completed the rout. Again Westley used "squad" players for the game against non-league opposition and would of been [. Click to continue reading...

Slough Preview

0
Boro travel to Berkshire tomorrow night to visit Slough Town in their last pre-season friendly. Graham Westley has already said that the game will be used for squad players. The team line up will be interesting though as it will probably give a good idea as to who will and will not play at the Racecourse. Click to continue reading...

Orient provide last test for Boro

0
Stevenage continued their impressive form against lower league opposition with a 3-1 win away at Northwood.

Boro hit Wood for six

A strong looking Stevenage squad travelled down the A1 this evening to face Ryman Premier side Boreham Wood at Meadow Park. Boro won the game easily 6-0 in their most convincing victory of pre-season so far. A brace from Mitchell Cole, who started up front, as well as goals from Eddie Anaclet, Steve Morison, Michael Bostwick and Lee Boylan, from the [.
