Is/was McSheffrey a triallist?


Yep. Was at Grimsby last season, but is mainly known for spells at Coventry and Birmingham. Would add a lot of experience to the attack.
A Coventry legend for sure, l know he is 35 but l would give him a contract, he has always been good at linking up play,and being aggressive.
His experience might be invaluable this season.
I'd like to see him sign as he has proven pedigree and might be that 'old head' which we need in the mix. Regarding 'older' players though....who was the best over mid 30's signing for the Pilgrims ? So many good ones, and a few not so good over the last couple of decades.

Jim Smith or Bobby Svarc - if they were over 30!

Bobby Svarc was nowhere near 30 and I think Jim Smith was only about 28 when he came as player/manager, both superb players though. Bobby Svarc is the best player I have ever seen play for Boston United. UTP

Bobby Svarc and John Froggat, now that was a forward line to fear.

Following updates sounded like had we took chances we'd have put the game to bed by half time?
But the defence.... That will stop us going up if we can't improve on last seasons lack of clean sheets

I think the midfield didn't help the situation , Thanjo and Middleton did not track back enough and we didn't keep possession enough up front.
That caused the defence to get overwhelmed.
The defence going forward should be a fit Mcoombe, Middleton, Qaulter and Jackson.

Kevin Hector who joined Boston United in 1978 aged 34 after a long and successful career with Bradford Park Avenue and Derby County. But after spells with Boston, Burton Albion and Vancouver Whitecaps he went back to Derby County for a couple more seasons.

Sorry Ken I have to disagree on this one. I felt he was one of the worst signings we have made. Defo one of those who only came for the money and put little effort into it either.

Agreed .
Seem to recall a young lad called Chris Cook playing for us at that time .
