Grantham v Boston on Tuesday.  Friendly, all procedes to go towards Ukraine refugees.

There's still no reference to this on BUFC sites. Living where I do, I'm very interested of course!

A great and worthy idea, I should add.

I'm still at a loss to understand why there is no reference to the game anywhere on our official channels.

Probably didn’t want any Boston supporters witnessing another dreadful display

A worthwhile game, with a mix of first teamers, youth and presumed triallists (it seemed that pretty much all first teamers were there and at least going through exercises, if not playing). Encouragingly, most of the game was played on the ground, with none of the hoofing we witnessed on Saturday. Massanka took his goals well, particularly the third, and was influential. I understand that the game was originally organised as a behind closed doors friendly but was opened up as a Ukraine fundraiser. Despite a poor attendance, almost £1000 was raised so, again, worthwhile.
