Lewis Hamilton’s from Stevenage, he’s an arrogant bottom.

Maybe we should boycott the home game later this year as it might prompt a response from JF and the boys.

Quoted from LH
What has anyone from Stevenage got to be arrogant about?


Probably still happy that their great grandparents escaped from the East End.


Through the door there came familiar laughter,
I saw your face and heard you call my name.
Oh my friend we're older but no wiser,
For in our hearts the dreams are still the same.

And a tax dodger, arrogant enough to feel he is above paying tax and dodges it.

What good will it do to the morale of our team if we have no supporters there?! And it's not fully supported by fans, I am a fan and certainly do not support a boycott of any kind!!

They can't perform any worse than when loads of fans were there to watch!

Quoted from Bristol Mariner
I would like to donate next seasons Stevenage ticket value to the GTFC Disabled Supporters club, can someone please provide contact details.


Six of the 24 teams in League Two are not going to be here next year. It's November!

The idea of a boycott is very laudable, but I'm getting really frustrated about this matter. An alleged sexual assault has taken place and it's a criminal matter which has to be investigated by the Police. It's incredible that nothing has actually been done. I didn't think it was a matter for our club at first, but I do find it surprising that an official complaint hasn't been made to Hertfordshire Police by the board or our safeguarding officer. I accept that the club don't have a legal Duty of Care to its supporters, but surely they have a responsibility to ensure that they can visit other grounds safely.

The FA have been assiduous in investigating allegations of historic abuse at other clubs, so why is this simply being ignored?

Hence the boycott Rev. No one with power seems to actually be doing anything about it. The police, the FL, GTFC, Stevenage FC. Zilch.

So the onus is on supporters to do something, at least and until this is taken seriously.

Has the Trust approached the two local MPs so they can raise it?

Yes - Stevenage's MP ignored us totally.

Melanie Onn has been fantastic and wrote to the Sports Minister, who copy and pasted the Stevenage statement verbatim and essentially said 'nothing to see here'. Melanie has offered her help for however things progress forward.
