The 2025–26 season was a historic milestone for Stevenage FC, marking the club's 50th anniversary and culminating in their joint-highest ever finish in the Football League. Under the management of Alex Revell, "The Boro" delivered a highly competitive campaign in Sky Bet League One, securing a 6th-place finish with 75 points. Led on the pitch by top scorer Jamie Reid (who netted 14 goals), Stevenage earned a spot in the promotion play-offs. Though their dreams of reaching the Championship were ultimately halted by Stockport County in the play-off semi-finals (losing 3-0 on aggregate), the season solidified their standing as a formidable third-tier side.
