Would love to but at the do the night before with twenty from the local in Fishtoft, to see Phil Thompson.

Sorry to be negative, but thats £42 a ticket plus raffle, heads and tails and taxi there and back plus booze so a £100 quid touch, surely this next event could have been arrangedat adifferent time but certainly not on consecutive nights.

As much as myself and a few others would like to attend both its just not going to happen, massive shame,and perhaps poor planning.

Obviously we're restricted by the capacity of the Pilgrim Lounge but a limit of 100 tickets would be my concern. When you think about how many supporters we took to Wembley (and the fact that we've not been back since), there'd probably be a greater level of interest than 100 tickets will allow. I wonder whether any of the Wembley squad will be staying in Boston overnight? Maybe they could be walked round the pitch at half time against Corby next day? It'd give all supporters more of a chance and might even put a few more on the gate for the next day's game.

EDIT: Ray O'Brien later managed Corby and I believe Ian Ladd also played for them. It has to be logical to invite at least those two back to York Street on the Saturday.

Unfortunately through lack of interest ...and maybe poor planning on my behalf, we have had to cancel this event, but I am sure we can arrange for some sort of reunion before the end of the season.
Thank you for your support.
