Agree, Leicester Pilgrim. But you used the magic words "Football authorities". Doesn't that answer your question?

If they did dock points that would be hilarious.

But I reckon common sense should prevail and just get a warning, i mean, its not as if they gained an advantage, the still lost 11-0

Oh, come on! The FA are dealing with a non-league club here, they don't use common sense for us lesser mortals! They'll probably fine them out of existence and dock points and warn them as to their future conduct

They managed to squeeze it in at the ehd of Look North, but only after I had sent them a text

If it had been Hull he came from there would be mention of it for the next ?? years. They're still going on about the flood!!

There is a full page advert in the Target this week.

Haven't had a Target delivered for ages! So much for their "distribution to all houses in the area" At least least people buy the Standard to read it, not throw away

I wouldn't label Retford as thugs either but the elbow from Ellender was there for everybody to see, plain as day. Just how the man who should be catching these incidents did not see it beggars belief but he should have known he had dropped a big one when Churchhad to go off a couple of minutes later.

A truly poor performance from the referee who I would think will get away with it as I doubt there was an assessor present at this level.

Assessor was in the FI stand, often to be seen holding his head in his hands!!

I notice some are complaining that people in the Fantasy Island stand didn't evacuate when asked! They were asked to leave by a different entrance at the END of the game, not straight away

Life bans for all those convicted and custodial sentences i hope.

So long as that won't infringe their 'human(?) rights'!!

I can't make it tonight.  I was just looking at the Kendal forum though, and I see BBC Radio Cumbria are offering them full commentary tonight on FM, AM and online.  I assume BBC Radio Lincolnshire will be providing us with the similar coverage tonight?

What colour are the flying pigs?

..... or try this.....

object to anything that may compete for the cheap labour pool, thus effecting the farmers in the Con Club!

But the Conservatives are Independent councillors aren't they?

Well Rob, of the BBC, any more comments after the above? It appears I'm not the only one with a gripe. Have you had any takers yet or will you mull over what's been said and give us a fair crack of the whip? I won't hold my breath

Rob from BBC Lincolnshire here. We havent 't got ANY Boston fans yet, it's YOUR chance to air your views on YOUR club and get some airtime for Boston.

If you wish to get involved email me on robert.makepeace@bbc.co.uk with a contact number and i'lll be in touch very shortly!

Bearing in mind the coverage we had last season - usually after everyone from Lincoln City had been interviewed including tea lady, oldest supporter etc - most probably think it's not worth it!

I was not just thinking about Larvaflow or even football. Boston Borough Council have a long history of turning away anything that might affect the labour force on the land. Just check with Boston Deep Sea Fisheries of Fleetwood or May and Baker (later Roche) Pharmeceuticals.

So long as the present lot aren't in power when (if) new plans are presented! The rate they're going there won't be anything left in Boston

A lot of non-contract players are on a pay-as-you-play deal, you can get paid, it just not as binding as a normal contract and you can get out of it anytime, you can also be dual registered as somebody said earlier.

If you read my post above, which part of non-contract players NOT getting paid don't you understand? They play 'for the love of the game'

According to the FA website non-contract players DO NOT get paid and can only claim 'legitimate' expenses. So if they are injured or are not picked the club would have no choice in whether or not they get money - non-contract=no pay, at any time, full stop!

Sixth best in non league football, wonder how many of the others have a full time editor

Think you might find Craig does a little bit more than edit the programme!
