At the forum last night overheared people talking about going to Retford game next week. Scott and Newton both commented on the great away support the team get. The end of the season is nigh and we have some big games coming our way. With these factors in mind and the relatively short trip to Retford I think we could have a lot of support travelling to the game. The team deserve a 12th player because of their work ethic and the results they have acheived, so I for one will be winging my way to the game to cheer them on. I realise it's an evening game but lets make the effort to show other clubs what we are about. See you there.

Been to every match this season I do hope the drum is banging loud and the Boston fans are in fine voice.
-
im planning to go this one, hopefully the proper drum will be there(big tom or one like yours :D) not the usual crap drums we have every week on town end :)
-

Ha ha. As well as the England flag, you can't forget my pride and joy - the Lincolnshire flag. I'm sure it baffles most of the away fans when they see it lol.
To be fair though - the FCUM fans are a great bunch, they made us all very welcome when we went up their earlier this season. Can't wait to welcome them at York Street, should be a cracking atmosphere.

Hi guys....
Just too inform you that Drums aren,t allowed at evening games at Retford due to an agreement with local residents,.... <SORRY>...
But you will be given a warm welcome in all other aspects.......
Any ideas on numbers you may bring????
Also in advance i would like to warn you about the lack of coverage at our ground and it does tend to have its own climate so wrap up extra warm.....
See you Tuesday

It can't be any colder than Buxton, can it?

Your ground is in a field in the middle of nowhere! :dan

It's hard to say but I've heard quite a lot of people who don't normally go say they're going so I'd guess somewhere between 200-300. Make sure you get plenty of programmes printed and plenty of food cooked up as when we played Stocksbridge they ran out of both very quickly due to them only expecting 50 and us taking closer to 200 - that was also midweek.

Nowhere is colder than Buxton, it's the coldest place I've ever been to...

No jesting mate their are about 8 houses nearby and the club do not allow even our own drummer at evening games...........
The club is trying to be a good neighbour
-
Do you have any cover at all? :D
-
Will we be permitted to cheer ? Sound like a happy go lucky bunch at Retford.
-
Challenge on then...keep the 8 awake and make lots of noise.

So do the local 8 not even go to home games?
-

Only when Retford score.....
Their is limited seating and cover....
With more going up at the mo.....
To be fair our ground isn,t great but work is under way to improve it...
6 promotions in about 8 years means we are not up to where should be but the new regime is determined to improve the ground...
-
Think it will be a new experience for the old farts , Shame our pals FCUM don,t have a evening match there.

Think your team needs to take a breather with this promotion lark before it comes and bites you in the but. Let the rest of the ground catch up

From now until tuesday could everyone who is going practice making a drumming noise. Then when all 200 to 300 of us together start 'drumming' the local 8 will complain to the police. When they arrive they won't be able to find a single drum!

Everyone buy one of these, pop it in your pockets. I'm sure a good few of these would make a racket

Your a winder upper Wismo. The Pink Panther tune comes to mind and with Saturdays game coming up it would be a good place to start practising; Der rum, der rum, der rum der rum der rum der rum der rum, der rum.Ps Do you think we could do away with the xmas themed thingymejingies, perhaps it's time to move on to easter eggs and bunnies. The white bunny and the yokel yeller belly are ok though. :bunny :dan

It took me about an hour working out how to put in the Xmas ones and I've now forgotten how I did it! I'll see if I can get some Easter ones in before Easter. Only 295 days until Christmas. ;D

We could opt for a ground like that in the middle of Frampton Fen, loads of open fields around Boston!
Is there good public transport facilities getting to Retford?
I shall be there with a pocketful of confetti. :P
-
Train is probably your only option....
Train from Boston toeither lincoln or NewarK???
Ground is about a mile from train station...............
Just as a heads up for you guys our programme regularly wins best program awards and the raffle prize supplied by the local butcher is top draw...

Don't forget to stop off at Papa's at the bottom of Leverton Road, arguably the best chippie in Retford ;)
-
Thanks Ken. Not criticising you cos I think you do a great job, I'm still trying to figure out how to insert quotes.

The tin pot meat raffle - it's a money raiser, just like shaking the bucket but with someone taking a string of sausages, pound of pork chops and a chicken home!
Car park - You can usually park on the road once it's full
Hope for your sakes you get promotion, this is obviously just too painful for most of you.

Thanks for your supoort mate ;D
Nice to know were gaining support from even our oppsition nowdays !
-
I dont mind a meat raffle. butcher meat aswell, might have a dabble or 2. whats the cost.
-
How much will it be to get in?
-
I think they pay their own supporters £1 to go and watch them. With the travelling we'll do and the fact that we are used to watching football being played and not thuggery they should give us about £2 each. ;D
-
Anyone know who the man in fancy dress will be on Tuesday. I think that when a manager gets into trouble with the ref it's usually the refs fault for not being any good at his job and failing to protect the players from thuggery which is why the managers get so angry and frustrated. With Retthugs reputation he had better be a good one. I think I will predict Scott to be sent off, but who cares, we've got one to spare.
-
£8 to get in and stand in the uncovered open air or sit in the micro stand (150 seats) that few want to use. A further 100 seats and the required amount of terrace cover will be in place by 31st March so we can avoid relegation! You'll see it next year if we're both still here.
Raffle's a £1
-
thanks badgerbean
-
Badgerbean!will the new stand allow promotion or only stop relegation?
-

They will get promotion longs they can get it up to unibond standard in time. But they will have more work to do if they go up by the end of march next year or they will come strait down again (kings lynn failed althou irelevent now)
-
I have a spare seat in van for this one at £5 pound if there is anyone who wants to go to this one drop a pm.
-
Conference now gives 18 months to get ground up to standard ala Eastwood and Ilkeston.....
Meat raffle is a superb prize and includes steaks ,porkchops sausages mixed grill packs and more...£1 a go ..
Award winning program is £2 and always revered by away fans....
Beer in clubhouse is a decent price and a nice pint.....
As said before not much cover and its always cold... But a warm welcome awaits all!!!!
-
I see your club must be expecting a bumper gate as they have put a call out for extra stewards
-

Only under special dispensation. Aren't Ilkeston getting Chesterfield's floodlights, hence why they aren't up to scratch now?
