I'm thinking t-shirts with JVT's face and the slogan "Boston United -tearing the pants out of it since 1933" underneath...

Now we actually have won on penalties (in an important game) I'm a bit more confident in JVT's vaccine analogy...

I haven't time to study it now, but I can see myself spending a lot of time on this database... Thanks Ken!

Yeah I've heard he's a nice lad from a pal who does some physio down the Blades.

I once saw George walking his dog when I was on my way to play football. He commented on my Boston top and it was only afterwards I realised who it was....

I'm with you Josh!

I think it is fine to curtail next season by say only playing each team once or having a two mini-leagues of 11 and play-offs to see who goes up and down as everybody would know what they were getting into before they start. Whereas even a month ago nobody was talking about stopping this season early so it just seems wrong to do it.

If you stop the 19-20 season now, when do you start the 20-21 one? I wouldn't assume we would be ready to start it in August...

Is there a Liverpool fan you really don't like Pete?

We had an away game postponed for wind at Durham City when we were in the Unibond. It was the season Durham were playing an inexperienced team so I'm certain Scotty and Hursty were pleased not to lose any points due to fluke goals, Sure enough we beat them a few weeks later....

I don't like to slag players off but I don't suppose he will be reading this. Pa Sulay Njie is the worst player I have ever seen play for Boston.

However I am not suggesting the worst Pilgrim ever as an idea for a programme article Ken!

I thought Jordan Richards was very good when we played him in midfield (not so much as a full back) and am slightly surprised he has not ended up playing at a higher level than ours.

In contrast (and I know he is a new signing and has been a sub so far I think), Tom Ward looked like he would be good but made too many mistakes that cost goals - a Trinity pal of mine said the same. Does anyone know if he is more consistent now?

I suspect the club is much better thought of now than when Evans complained about having to play too many matches near the St Albans quarter-final. This might have influenced the league regarding the Brackley postponement

Also for info, the Wilbutts Lane chippy wasn't open yesterday - I'm assuming because it was a Sunday and I don't suppose you have too many Sunday games so probably isn't normally a problem
