...BOROUGH ARE THROUGH TO THE 2nd QUALIFYING ROUND OF THE FA VASE

The FA have removed Borough's First Qualifying Round opponents (TOKYNGTON MANOR) from the Competition so the scheduled match on 4th September will not take place.

Borough will enter the  CVompetition in the 2nd. Qualifying round away to the winners of the OXHEY JETS v ST. MARGARETSBURY tie.

.........HOME DRAWS A-PLENTY IN LEAGUE'S KNOCK OUT COMPETITIONS

Borough enjoyed favourable draws in both the League Trophy and the Premier Division Cup

In the TROPHY they could go to the quarter final without leaving Coles Park.  Their First Round opponents will be AMPTHILL TOWN of Division One.  Success would bring a visit from either DUNSTABLE TOWN (Premier Division) or PITSTONE and IVINGHOE (Division 2) and if they reach the Third Round their visitors would be THE 61FC (Division 2) or HAREFIELD UNITED (Premier Division) or PADBURY UNITED (Division 2).  Any Quarter Final or Semi Final tie would be away from home.

In the PREMIER DIVISION CUP they will be visited by ST. MARGARETSBURY in the First Round.   Success would see any further games away from home - at either BIGGLESWADE UNITED or BROXBOURNE BOROUGH in the second round  and at LANGFORD or KENTISH TOWN in the Quarter Final.  A Semi final tie would be away from home. 

...A WINNING START TO BOROUGH'S  PRE-SEASON CAMPAIGN

England Deaf International striker DANIEL AILEY who has re-signed for Borough having played a few seasons ago ensured pre-season started happily with 2 late goals after a goal-less draw at home to AFC Hayes had looked the likely outcome.    As defenders stood off him in the 80th minute he worked his way to the edge of the penalty box before arrowing a shot low into the corner.   Terry Smith equalised for the visitors a few minutes later but when Ailey was held back as he tried to latch on to a free kick from the left he composed himself to smash the penalty low and hard to the keepers left.

It was a promising display from a squad not at all familiar with each other before today as of Borough's 16 man squad only 4 were with the Club last year although another 4 had previously been with us in earlier seasons.

Not to be outdone the Womens team, also fielding a number of new faces, won their first pre-season game on Sunday 25th by the same score against visiting Hutton.
