When athletic folded and stevenage didn’t have a team , loads of Stevenage fans would go to Hitchin every home game and stand in the away end and boo them. I was 5 years old when my dad and grandad took me there for two seasons. It’s in my blood to hate them.

Imagine your earliest entry into football is hating the team you are watching for two seasons.

My footballing ambition at 7 years old was to see this new Stevenage team one day play Hitchin in the league and beat them. Thanks to Martin Gittings a few years later back healing it over the line , I was privileged to have been part of the loudest band of brotherhood to have walked from Topfield to the station.

They are for us old uns the most hated team we could ever play, closely followed of course by Woking and Barton Rovers.
