Have we got Rethug in the Final?
Lets hope common sense prevails and its played at a venue local to both sides, not somewhere up in the North West.

yep ....
See you at Grantham or Lincoln... Probably???
-
I think the final is supposed to be played at a unibond clubs ground whether it be a premier or Div1 north or south. My guess would be Halifax for size. If the game could be played anywhere other than a Unibond ground then I would say Mansfield, Lincoln, Scunthorpe or Rotherham.
Well Done Boston United
-
Please-not the running track.
-
To be honest I was thinking of Stamford, easy for both clubs to get to, and lets be honest, its not the most prestigious of competitions is it?
-
didn't we play gainsborough at sincil bank in this cup final back in the nineties?
-
Wasn't that the Presidents Cup?
-
true, good point. Is that for league winners v cup winners?
-
A few pics from the match uploaded from the train on the way home. More to follow as my internet connection permits!

Ashby Avenue or The Northolme are more likely choices

That looks a really well appointed little ground.
I wonder if its the kind of thing we can expect in a few years..........assuming this moratorium on planning is lifted?

Have we ever played against a team with a "Z" in its name before?

Yeah.......

Good call, Andy.
But have we ever previously played a competitive fixture against a team with a Z in its name?

There's also Bergen-op-Zoom who Boston played in a couple of pre-season games just after the war.
(http://www.bufc.drfox.org.uk/bergen.jpg)
The Boston team that played in the 5-2 win in Bergen-op-Zoom on 18/8/1947
Last time I looked there were only three English teams with a z in their names:
Curzon Ashton
Devizes Town
St Blazey
and until yesterday Boston hadn't played any of them.

Blimey, am I that old? - I can remember the game being played at Boston but the pic's obviously the away game. Is that Reg Dilley (director) back row, left, and Freddie Tunstall (back right). Also spot Jock Bayne, Roly Depear (eventually went to Leeds Utd I think), Roy Houghton, and there's Harry Sharp and Tommy Mitcham on front row
MEMORIES!

You must be that old OP, I am.

I got the photo from one of Tommy Mitcham's sons and I've also got the team line-up from the match report in the Standard, but I haven't been able quite match the names on the line-up with the players in the photo!
The team line-up was: Jock Bayne, George Darwin, Clark, Martin, Roly Depear, Harold Pond, Roy Houghton, Jack Stone, Harry Sharp, Tommy Mitcham, Jennings.
On the photo on the back row I think I can recognise: Reg Dilley (Director), Harold Pond, George Darwin, Roly Depear, Jock Bayne, ?, Martin, Fred Tunstall (Manager). On the front row: Roy Houghton, ?, Tommy Mitcham, Harry Sharp, ?.
I can't see anyone looking like Jack Stone!
Any help in filling in the gaps would be greatly appreciated.

I don't believe Old Pilgrim is that old. Anyone who can master a computer and get a word (memories) scrolling along the bottom like that is a genius and can't be more than 40. I'm envious.

I've also got a photo from the home game a year earlier on 24th August 1946. This one was in the Standard and everyone in it is named.

Before the match on Saturday between Bergen op Zoom and Boston United, Mr. C. A. Faulkner took the opportunity of snapping the Boston side, together with some of the reserves and directors. Those in our group are as follows: Standing: Messrs. J. Ostler, R. A. Dilley and Luesby (directors), F.Chapman, Rippin, Elsam, Crossley, McClure, Howard, Joyce, Eaglen, Pate, Dickinson, Harmston, Harvey, Houghton and W. Toynton. Bottom row: Drury, Kent, Bartley, Harris, Sharp, Mitcham, Martin, F.Tunstall (manager), Cook and E. Howard.

Enough of the ageism! I was programming English Electric mainframes in 1968, and in machine-code too. I still know where to find the on button every morning (if I remember to get up).
Can someone show me the way to the bathroom?

Don't be envious, please! Wouldn't say I can 'master' a computer, it's easy to scroll (see moving button on 'tags' when you send a message) AND I can remember the latter part of WW2!!

Jack Stone second from left on bottom row?

I can only see 11 (assuming the guy at the back in the polo neck sweater is the goalie) blokes in playing kit.....did the reserves wear shirt and ties in them days?

Remember staying at a youth hostel at Bergen op zoom in early 1970 s .
About 7 Italian lads arrived .. crammed in a VW Beetle ! . . complete with large flagon of red wine ..
So we had a game of footie .. think I was in my defensive midfield role ..
