Was a typical pre season affair, but a good workout none the less. To be fair Lincoln looked just that bit quicker than us and a bit cleverer on the ball, and towards the end you could see the difference in fitness that you would expect between a full time team and a part time team. We looked a bit disjointed at times which is to be expected from a complete new team playing together for the first time, we also looked a little toothless in attack. Not being negative just trying to look at the game in perspective.
Having said all that on the positive side I can only remember 2 or 3 times when they unlocked our defence but each time they failed to score. Stand out performance for me was, despite all the new players, Liam Parker. Cullingworth also had a very good game and these 2 impressed me the most, although I don't think there was a bad performance from any player. Big surprise seeing Dorothy back minus the red boots, even bigger surprise was the effort he put in and I think well worth another look. Very happy with the effort from all the players which was in marked contrast to last year. We're not going to play anything like the standard of Lincoln in the Unibond so to not look out of our depth bodes well for the coming season and I am cautiously optimistic.
Not sure if it's true but was told the mystery player was Danny Sleath (who we had on loan under TT). Great crowd for a friendly as well, circa 200 from Lincoln in the 950 total crowd.
-
was danny sleath
-
Who was the lad who wore the number 11 shirt in the first half?
check the grassy knoll.
-
Lee Askham
-
For a first run-out I was reasonably impressed.Thought Canners & Pearson looked decent together and the right back,Woods played well.Enough seen to be cautiously optomistic.There is more to come I am sure.Some of the trialists may make it,others won't.Thought King did O.K. considering he played the night before for Accrington.
Quote today from Hursty in todays(Thursday) Echo:
"The phone is still ringing with trialists wanting a game,and we'll be looking at some more options through the pre-season."
-
i thought that pembleton that came on 2nd half in midfield wasnt half bad
-
King looked like a player who is after a contract last night, he was not the same player that turned out for us last year, very impressed.
-
As good as he looked last night you have to question the fact that when the chips are down (end of last season) he looked less interested than Tony 'The Crane' Crane does when faced with a side salad.

So, an estimate of between 100 and 120 visiting supporters. I think there were about 400 but 250 were stuck in the function suite waiting to be served. A tip for the management, get the beer out quicker and people will have time for a second, and the club will profit. You are not serving customers in the White Hart who are in no hurry. I think you know that more bar staff will be needed when the club is really busy. Last season the staff worked their butts off to get people served and sometimes had 3 or 4 glasses at a time being filled. Oh yes, and look at the customers so that folks who just happen to walk into a space at the bar don't get served before the ones who have been waiting. Justifiable moan I think especially as the management has had previous bar experience. Things will get better I'm sure but be careful you don't lose customers to pubs in the area. Nice drop of ale though.
-
mate told me it was slow.what ale they selling
-
didn't think to much of the right back, altho only the first game hope he will get better
-
place looked nice, only thing missing was a beer in my hand. we gave up any hope of a drink b4 kick off and walked out after 20 mins of waiting to be served. bar wasnt even a quarter as full as on a match day. so the club lost out on at least 4 pints and a couple of cokes. sorry but coach and horses for me.
-

if u arrived at say 5 pm u may have tasted one of the following
batemans, carling xc, 1664, and others oh and worthington on a 1.50 a pint promotion. any time after say 6pm and no chance of actually buying one. ;D
-
I am realibly informed that there is vacencies out for staff. so it should all be okay, i think they have hopes to have it fully staffed before the start of the season.

abuse ???
banter yes but not abuse, end of day reading this comment put on their he should'nt of been in our end anway
Having lost a work based bet, I had to take one for the team, and stand in the Boston End last night. I was astonished at the vile language, hatred and general viciousness of their 'support'. You'd have though that last night's game was a league match, given the verbals flying around, mostly from kids, to my utter disbelief. The stewards on duty didn't do much to dampen the language at all. I think the club needs to take a look at their 'support'.
-
Maybe they should take a look at the police reports of the before and after match. before they start winging. althou i do respect that this was only around 15 to 20 youth from lincoln.

Technical problems. ::) The transfer software for my phone has decided that the buttons on the 'Connection Wizard' should not respond. I've tried reinstalling it (which was a job in itself) and installing other versions in case the CD was scratched, but it's probably my computer (mind you, it wouldn't even install on another one I tried). I will try to upload it at the weekend when I will have access to a different PC.
What is more frustrating? Supporting Boston United or computers?
1.Closed football season
2.Computers
3.Crawley winning
4.Supporting boston

Oh come on, a bit of verbals against our bitter rivals from the City, did they expect any less, Gary 'king King got it, Dene Crapper, West etc all got it when they played for us, let alone against us.

Does anyone know why Kirk was,nt playing ?
Because he was playing (75 mins trial) for Sheffied United!!!!!!!!!!!! According to a post on Stamford site

Sounds like he essentially played for a youth side against a local amateur side in a game which they lost.
Certainly feels very much like we are a fallback though if he doesn't get anything else sorted out with this and the comments on the Stamford forum a few weeks ago.

SOrry to be the odd one out, but i agree totally with this chap. I had a few games at the town end last year with my partner and son, and was disgusted with the behavior of our younger supporters. I mentioned it on the last forum and did get some support from other posters, but i stopped standing in the town end after that.
I wasnt there on wednesday so i cant comment on what happened, but my experience was seeing teenagers spittng at the goal keeper and spraying him with drinks and using vile offensive and inflamotory language in a deliberate attempt to rile and distract the keeper.
I also agree that the stewards found this acceptable and ignored it all walking past on several occasions and turning a blind eye. It was only the intervention of a copper that put some sort of stop to it.
Maybe im not the kind of person that Boston wants as a supporter, but i find such behavior totally unaceptable from any kind of persopn, young or old. In a social environment, spitting would be classed as assault and liable for criminal procedings, but apparently some consider it fair game at a football match.
Personaly i would prefer to see the supporters at the town end find these little shits and beat them to a pulp so as to teach them a lesson, rather than classifying it as "banter".
Hey ho, thats my 10 pence worth,

Maybe this Lincoln fan complaining about our fans forgot to mention that a copper had to escort several "lincoln fans" out the gate during the game. And that their fans were also giving us a good amount of verbal. Theres always two sides to every story but what would we honestly expect from a fan of gimps city.
Im sure the atmosphere will be less hostile at town on saturday lol

Well its nice to know there is a bit of action taken if it gets out of hand. I suppose after all it is the beautiful game n all, and everything of beauty has a wart hidden somewhere. If it was all bad we wouldnt go would we?
