The B-Ark / BUFC T-Shirts and other great stuff

« on: October 02, 2020, 10:03:46 AM »

Apologies ...especially to Ken, for not posting on here for a long, long time! Don't know why either!

But thought I would take this opportunity to thank everyone who has purchased items of Boston United memorabilia through the Boston United Supporters Group Facebook page, so far we have raised £5.5k and I still have a few more shirts and other items like framed paintings, pennants, badges etc to come.

But another idea I have come up with is the Black on Black YORK STREET T-Shirt which was supposed to represent the old ground disappearing ...but some people wanted to see it in amber and white print ...so I have now made these available as well. All t-shirts from small to XXXL are £15.00 each.

Another item I have put on sale is a really nice Polo long sleeved jumper with the retro 85' BUFC logo embroidered in amber on the left chest, these are available in S, M, L and XL and priced at £20.00 each.

All 4 items are available on our website www.cucci.online

Thank you for your support of our wonderful club, let's hope we can get into the new stadium asap and cheer on The Pilgrims!

The B-Ark / Re: WEMBLEY 85 REUNION EVENT

« on: November 01, 2015, 07:40:06 PM »

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.

We dropped Rene off at Newark at 2am and he said he had another 2 1/2 hours drive to get home! Now that is what you call commitment.

The B-Ark / Re: Attractive game this Tuesday night 7pm

« on: December 09, 2014, 01:52:12 PM »

From the official website
Boston United under-21s are in action at The Jakemans Stadium on Tuesday evening.
The Pilgrims will entertain what is expected to be a strong Grimsby Town XI (kick-off 7.00pm).Jamie McGhee and Marc Newsham will once again feature for the Pilgrims — after combining as substitutes for Saturday’s equaliser against Brackley Town.
With Grimsby inactive since November 29, manager Paul Hurst is likely to field a strong side for his first return to Boston since leaving in March 2011.
The Wilson and Co Vauxhall Stand will be open for spectators — with admission priced £2 for adults and £1 for concessions.
The Pilgrim Lounge will be open throughout the evening too.

Some supporters who have watched most of the U21 games so far this season will agree that the quality has been much better than the Lincs League games over the past couple of years. We enquired about going into quite a few leagues, and none were deemed suitable either because of quality or costs in travelling.

Personally I would like to have seen the Youth Team take the place of the reserves in the Lincs League but the pitch at The Jakemans would then taken a lot more hammer from too many games. Perhaps in the future the club's structure will be reformed again to fill that gap between the youth team and the U21's, as it is very difficult to have a squad of Boston United players available for the U21's ...and then available for the first team on a Saturday.

The B-Ark / Attractive game this Tuesday night 7pm

« on: December 08, 2014, 06:32:48 PM »

Tuesday night sees Boston United Under 21's entertain a very strong Grimsby Town XI, who could play their first eleven after being without a game last Saturday.
United will also have quite a few of the first team squad playing for fitness alongside trialists and some of the youth team.
Kick off is 7.00pm and entrance is £2 and £1 for concessions.
Wrap up and get yourself down to The Jakemans to support these young lads!
