Stevenage boss takes positives from a terrible game at Peterborough United
Stevenage boss Alex Revell saw positives from his side during a incident-free 0-0 draw at Peterborough United on Tuesday night.
Both teams kept their first League One clean sheet of the season, but Stevenage, play-off semi-final losers last season, are without a win in their opening four games. Stevenage are currently sitting in the bottom four, a point and four spots below 17th-placed Posh.
Revell, who appeared to forget his side won this fixture last season, said: “There were plenty of positives and I’m really proud of the group. They’ve run into the ground for each other and played some really good football.
“It’s two years in a row where we’ve come here, maybe three years in a row, where we’ve not got what we deserved.
“We’ve had a huge moment before half-time and we didn’t take it. We can’t keep coming in and saying we’re not taking the chances when we’re getting them.
“It’s the first clean sheet and the way the back four worked was impressive. We’ve got a group of people who want to fight for each other and that’s what we want. They put in a really good performance, but it’s that fight that we’ve got back I’m really pleased with.
“We’ve got lads with cuts on their feet, but they don’t want to come off. They want to play for their mates and that’s a really special place to be.”
