Welcome to a new Boston United discussion list.

Same rules as the old ImpsTALK forum.

Welcome back Patter.

Hopefully I'll be able to get hold of the ImpsTALK template sometime so I can sort these colours out!

Unfortunately it's looking like Pete & Adam haven't been able to fix the ImpsTALK forum. So I've set up this empty forum to give you all somewhere to post while they try to sort it out.

We've not been able to extract any of the ImpsTALK forum member details, so you will have to register anew on here I'm afraid.

Looks like the ImpsTalk forum is back up and running!

So head back there while we try to persuade Pete & Adam to keep it going!

Cometh the hour, cometh the man...welcome back Ken.

And a big 'thanks' to Impstalk for holding the fort after your little local difficulty with the previous York Street regime.

This new Patter is so good that posts seem to appear one hour before they have been sent...

Is the Impstalk forum down again?

Never mind.  It works just not from the link on the Impstalk home site.

This site looks familiar. Does any one on here support Boston United?

Well done Sir Kenneth Fox CBE OBE  ;D When people talk about the 'unsung heroes' of Boston they forget about this man Ken Fox, what with all his knowledge of Boston, his photos and now bringing back the fantastic Pilgrims Patter. We all thank you Ken, we've probably bumped into one another at the games and i do know who you are,  next time i see you i'll thank you in person.

check the grassy knoll

Nice to see the patter back and its refreshing to feel a fresh air starting to blow through the club.

Crikey - only three days old and we've already had some Russian trying to spam us with dodgy mattress sales!  :o

No wonder Pete's had enough looking after ImpsTALK.

Hate to moan, but I'm going to.......  ;)

Are there some lines/borders seemingly missing in some places?

Possibly. I've not got Pete's ImpsTalk template so it's a bit trial and error trying to get the the similar look.

There are also apparently some inconsistencies between different browsers, so it won't look quite the same in IE as in Firefox.

If anything is too irritating about the look then give a shout and I'll try and fix it.

No worries, I'll get used to it.

Some breadcrumbs for the forum at the bottom of a thread, above the other links part would be great though.

Its great that the site is back. I still remember the sinking feeling back in January 2007 when Patter went down. It was great that Impstalk took over soon afterwards - but its really good to be back with Patter.

Thanks Ken!!!!!!!!!!!

The reincarnated Patter is ten years old in July. Are we buying Ken a Batemans to say cheers? I did write about him in the Chorley programme this weekend, but with crowds slumping I doubt anyone read it....

What was it before?
Was it the same but just an older version, l can recall the original website but cannot recall it being on there.
Title: Re: Welcome to Pilgrims Patter
Post by: Pete Brooksbank on March 17, 2019, 06:40:20 PM
Patter was on the original website, but then there was some kind of falling out between Ken and the club and he gave it up... then I hosted a forum on impsTALK, which I gave up in 2009 because it was a pain in the arse, and clearly having a Boston United forum named after Lincoln City was never going to be sustainable long term.

Don't underestimate how much crap you have to put up with running these things (although I'd argue it was much worse a few years ago when forums like this were a lot busier than they are now - social media has taken much of the traffic now).
Title: Re: Welcome to Pilgrims Patter
Post by: Old boy thin on March 17, 2019, 08:07:33 PM
Thanks Pete for the explanation.
I think l can remember the fall out, l think it was something to do with the current chairman of that time.
Would that be Mr Wood ???
