Great result and well done, a final to come against Trinity.
Send boys to Boston and see what you get Grimsby.

Alot of positives out there today. Yes they played mainly under 23's, Thier choice, we were well organised & played some excellent football. Willis rarely kicked the ball out, it was given to the full backs & played through our midfield. The great penalty save was bout the only save he had to make. We look solid at the back, got plenty of height & Cowgill is quality. Chapman & McGuire give us class & experience in midfield, where Vinno is getting better every game. Smithy looked alot sharper today, Hawley did well & Tshimanga looks a good striker. The pitch looks excellent too.

And events roll on ..
Boston loan a left sided wide man from Rotherham ..
Southport bag midfield presence Schumacher who's had a few League clubs. .from what Ive seen he's a bit hit and miss .
Salford 'splash more cash ' on a Rochdale striker ..who scored 3 goals v Chorley recently .
And still 2 weeks to go .
-
Jack Reddington the new Salford striker is reputed to be on £2k a week .
-
That gets a good mortgage .. :(

Who gives a toss what Salford do, no other club in this league respects them, they are nothing with a bunch of money grabbing players including pidge, I can't wait for our Smithy to smash him.
This club showed pidge respect,support and loyalty, he and only he has decided to go money chasing.
So he is now a hobby club and tv show player sucking up to the Man Utd has beens, I shall not clap him when he returns to York Street, and don't give me all that about loyalty to players rubbish, he stated that, I love this club, I would come back and play here again, and the first offer he gets too play for the little Man Utd and a big fat wedge of cash, he soon forgets all of his fans at Boston.

Players usually follow the (big) money.
If S*lford were paying similar wages to Boston then he would probably have made himself available to your manager, rather than become some bit part in a sporting version of the Truman show.
S*lford and their owners have quickly become the most despised club in (non league) football. The brackets will disappear pretty quickly, as will the owners as they fade into obscurity.
Think the BBC need to realise that most football fans are not interested in some millionaires vanity project

Well said that man.

I don't blame Pidge. He's hardly going to turn round and go, actually, pay me less... it's his job.

I agree with you P86. Pidge is entitled to his pay day. He gave us 3 good years. Good luck to him. The fault lies at $alford, not with the individual players. They shouldn't ignore the huge carrot while they can get it.

A few snaps from yesterday's match in a public Facebook Album:

I'll have a go at identifying all the new players later.
-
And with a bit of help from Facebook friends I think I've got an action shot of all the Boston players in the match. I've bunged them in one of my usual little Match Galleries:
http://www.bufc.drfox.org.uk/grimsbytown220717.html (http://www.bufc.drfox.org.uk/grimsbytown220717.html)
Got all the goals as well - which is rather unusual for me.
-
Have we signed Mason Warren, is he on loan, or on trial?
-
Newsnow conf north reported it as a 'loan' yesterday ,but I cant see it now .
I think the source was given as Boston Standard .
It also said there was no further interest in the other 2 , from which party I know not .
Maybe things will be announced / or not early in the week .
Ah there is an article on Standard website about that and yesterdays purrrformance.

I think this clears up the Mason Warren speculation.
-
I might be wrong but when Pidge was playing for us (before his trip down under) wasn't he also attending a Uni course in Manchester?
If so then playing (and living) in that area makes a lot of sense as even if he is no longer doing a course there he would have friends etc in the North West - in addition to the boot full of cash being paid
-
I agree Weston. Terrible journey from Manchester. Can't blame him for finding a club up that way.

He was at uni in Manchester, but his 'home' is in/near Peterborough.

No disagreement re: the Pidge situation but, after you've done it the hundreds and hundreds of times I have, you probably have become so immune that you wouldn't describe the journey from Manchester as terrible. I'm based 7 miles north of the city centre towards Bolton, and my Saturday morning journey for home matches has become so routine these last 37 years that I know exactly where I need to be at various check points along the way in order to make it within the reasonably leisurely time of 2 hrs 25 mins to my relatives' place in Boston. Ironically, its the better weather conditions of early and late season, that can lead to that time stretching a few minutes with the extra traffic on the 30 odd miles from leaving the A1 at Newark.
On the other hand making journeys in and around Manchester is REALLY terrible. I work in the city centre and my journey to and from work takes just as long as it does to drive the first 55 miles of the my Saturday morning jaunts to Boston.
