Liam Shotton, brother of Ryan, opens the scoring for The Blues.

??? Got to question that remark !
As a fan, why would you find it highly amusing ? Surely you should be worried about this team.

Time for a change?

Nope not in the slightest...... I pay my money at the turnstyles so the club can pay someone else to worry about the team.
I may be a fan/supporter of Boston United but i worry about major health problems at home at the mo and would rather look at Boston United dire form and find it more amusing than worry about where we go from here and how to change it..

Bring back Jason! :)

12 corners ????????
-
Wonder what DG is going to say about this game, will he blame the supporters, the weather, the ground, the ref and Uncle Tom Cobbley and all!!!

12 corners against a team 2 leagues lower and not one converted , very poor , don,t they work on these in training .

Proably the same as me Ernie , what time does the Eagle open ?

I think the first goal was crucial today.
Plus our regular goalie returned after a couple of matches on the sidelines due to injury. Sounds like he really put in a shift today.

Sounds as though we are improving then LTI. Last week at home to Hednesford their goalie did,nt have a shot to save !!!!!!!

Marrs was in midfield again today, played the whole game and yet was not mentioned once on Craig's twitter. What does that tell us?
To say I'm disappointed with the result doesn't come close!
-
To be honest have not seen a decent display this season.
This result is awful....I wonder what our beloved leader will have to say......will he blame the fans again?
He seemed to be suggesting that the team have improved from last season....he must be watching different games to me! The fact is we have not got a reliable goal scorer to replace RM and the midfield is poor. Marr was a good fullback, but out of his depth in midfield.
I had a horrible feeling this was going to happen.......the latest in a long line of ignominious cup exits....grim.

We were lucky to win against Barrow and some of our early performances were not good.
Prior to the Oxford home match - I said that we will be found out sooner or later - and since then we have been poor.
If I didn't have a season ticket - it wouldn't take much to find something else to do on a Saturday afternoon and there must be a lot of "fans" who are not season ticket holders who will be drifting away because of the poor entertainment value they are being served.
Its all very well Dennis saying look where we have come over the last 18 months - what worries me is where we will be in the next 18 months and unless things improve................................

Never mind what DG is going to say........it is some of the posters on here who will be more creative!

My 1st game for a while ..
I could say reasons for not paying to watch Boston #138 . .
Is 'holding up the ball like a man ' such an anathema to Boston .. especially in key areas of midfield and attack ?
-
Reflecing over the season so far only TWO players would have a chance of holding down a place in a promotion chasing side .
-
Not sure how old the Leek team was..
But Leek played like men ..and Boston like boys .
And Garner and Piergianni were too often pulled out of postion . . and guilty of childish overmarking of Leek keeper on passbacks
Can they really be relied on ?
I had a feeling the team with the Big Man with a beard would win ..
-
If you mean Sam Hall by 'big man with beard', he played for Kidsgrove when they dumped you out a couple of years ago. Danny Smith and Andy Kinsey were also in that side. And our assistant manager Peter Ward was Kidsrove's manger back then. Weird how things come around again.
-
OK Don't rub it in LTI . .

TAXI for Mr Green.
Time to get your coat Den.

Im a pro Greene fan but i have to admit these problems are not new once and i have not seen any attempt to rectify them

Piergianni has not been imposing this season , maybe his studies have taken over . Garner is too often caught out for speed , something which teams quickly pick up.
-
Pluses ?
The usual couple of pen shouts inc an early one when a Leek player appeared to acrobatically fist away the ball low down .
Farah and Felix played well-ok as usual , , but crossed to apparently barely competant , uninterested , and big enough central strikers .
They F &F need to be coached to man up and become box penetrating wide strikers .. like Dirk Kuyt for instance .
Midfield need to be no nonsense , age almost immaterial .
The performance of the loanees today was poor .
And Dowie never got out of his hole ..I think he knows what to do but cannot do it .

After last weeks display I said I would not be there today but being the eternal optimist or soft in the head I went.Arriving quite early we went in the bar where we were asked if the lads on the pitch in their track suites were our youth team, says a lot doesn't it. I really can't be bothered to give a match report save to say that for twenty minutes in the first half we were in their box with chances but frankly it was the same old tale, nobody to put it in the net, Newsham started yet is still a long way off the pace despite his best efforts. Garner is being asked to do it all to cover for a woeful mid field. Steer made two or three errors the second being so awful gifting them a goal that I would have dragged him off and told him to go home. We should not be expected to loyally turn up for every match when clearly the team are rubbish and don't deserve such support. As I say I was there and at the final whistle I did something I have not done before but was so incensed I let Mr Greene know that what I had just witnessed was an "absolute disgrace". Also something happened which I have not seen before ie some of the team at full time turned to clap our supporters but they had already headed out of the ground and that says it all really. Beware Mr Newton some of them will perhaps find something else to do on a Saturday afternoon.

So he did play in the hole, fatal mistake. He should have played in one of the channels. There he could have ploughed a lone furrow and kept to the straight and narrow. They are also not as deep as a hole and he could easily have jumped out if someone passed him one of them there square balls people keep on about. Mind you, they can be swine if you try and head them, one of those corners could have your eye out. ::)

Like a bit of irony SL .
Though Steve Martin had all that buttoned up in Roxanne .
Some people dont like him for that ..

Not long got home from the game and to say im disappointed is an under-statement.
First of all, full credit to Leek Town who were first to every ball, they battled hard and they deserved to be in the hat for the draw on Monday. Well Done.
Secondly, what is going on at BUFC?. Huffing and puffing, long balls to no one, no desire, no width, i could go on and on.......
We are just not good enough and this needs sorting asap otherwise we will end up being a mid-table side getting crowds of 750.
Todays game had the potential to be a banana skin and it happened. After a stuttering start when Vince had to make a great save we did get on top and i felt with our domination we would score and we nearly did on a couple of occasions. Their keeper making some decent saves but then it went downhill... Leek missed an open goal and should have gone in at half-time leading.
The second half was awful, Greene took off our best player ( Dixon ) and things got worse when Leek scored a well worked goal. Their tails were up and they could have extended their lead further before Steers defensive error led the to their second. I shouted to Greene to sort it and all i got was abuse from Bunce. I can understand their frustrations but the majority of this squad are GREENES signings and several players who i will not name are not good enough.
As usual the away fans helped with the decent attendance of 769 ( approx 120 Boston ) and they deserve better.
I will be there next saturday v Hyde but many more poor performances and results like the last two i believe the writing will be on the wall for Denis.
-
Im pleased for Leek with that attendance .. and I bet they are pleased with the prize money .

I don't give two shits about Leek, we're in trouble and it needs addressing fast before all the good work of the past few years is wasted.
-
It was truly awful. Truth is leek could and should have had two more. More worryingly leek didn't even play that well because they didn't have to. A big side to leagues lower, they were busy passing along the floor while we were lumping it forward. We say we need more firepower but the strikers we have never even get the ball. They completely controlled midfield thats the issue
-
Missed out on a home tie against Blythe Spartans. What a waste of an opportunity to progress!

So, go along with Milo and be there next Saturday or volunteer to be a guinea pig in the Ebola vaccine trials. Mmmmm, that's a difficult one.
