Boston-Grimsby saga enters the final straight
BOSTON UNITED chairman David Newton admits he is looking forward to the end of the club's long-running saga with Grimsby Town.
The Pilgrims are taking former joint-managers Rob Scott and Paul Hurst, plus Mariners chairman John Fenty, to court after the pair quit York Street to take charge at Blundell Park last season.
Newton is seeking compensation after claiming there was no "mechanism within their terms that allowed them to resign".
Contrary to speculation elsewhere, the court case has not already taken place.
A date and venue for the hearing is yet to be decided, but it is expected to take place by November.
"We've submitted our case and are just waiting for a date and venue now," said Newton.
