Coming up from london for the game. Wondered if anyone is likely to be heading for a beer before or after the game? I'll be all on my lonesomeI'm getting the tram in from Nottingham, arriving about 2ish. Meeting somebody there, and then finding some sort of pub...
A lot of FC fans missed last year as the weather was freezing so presumed it would be off...but the match was played and most fans spoke very highly of the visit to Boston. On that i think you can expect a slightly bigger FC following (500+) this time, but the same result!We are certainly a better side than last year, and looking at the table, you're the opposite....
I wasn't having a pop - no abusive words were used were they? You may have said it was a great gesture, but then you had to add something on the end, hoping it's replicated to home fans.How about a scheme that lets the King's Lynn season ticket holders in for free on Boxing Day along with Shodfried & family as a thank you for his recent fundraising efforts and to stop him being "Mr Grumpy" over Christmas.
Its a great gesture by the club to the Lynn fans, lets hope its a gesture replicated to home fans in the not too distant future too.
Missed this in your haste to have a pop did you 'PILGRIM86'?
WHAT ABOUT SOME MODERATION ON THIS FORUM MR FOX AND THE MODERATORS?
IS THIS KIND OF PETTY ABUSE REALLY NECESSARY?
THERE'S 3 PAGES OF VALID ARGUMENTS WITHOUT RESORTING TO INSULTS, HOW ABOUT PULLING A FEW UP EH MODS?
You're also sticking one up the KL fans, by not agreeing to letting them in for free for ONE GAME, which just happens to be BOXING DAY, the day after Christmas Day itself.I'm opposed to anyone getting in for free.
Cock
Nice one, when all else fails let resort to insults. I was waiting to see who'd be the 1st, thanks for stepping up to the plate.
Merry Xmas.
How many season ticket holders do we have? 500?It's ONE game. If 200 of them turn up, it bumps our average up, and hopefully they'll be more inclined to buy a programme, a pie, a pint, etc.. extra money we wouldn't be getting. If 50 of them then turn up for more of our games, then that's more money for us.
Whats the average gate? 1150-1200?
So about 600+ people who pay every week.
What about starting a campaign for them to get in free too, its their money every week or so that keeps a steady flow of cash coming into the club.
My view is letting the KL fans in for free even as a one off is a slap in the face for those people who turn up every week and hand over their tenner to support football in the town. I'd be pretty pissed off I I was going every game and paying my way and the bloke who was stood next to me making a one off visit with no affinity to our club was getting in for nothing.
There's one I know of.. The Pilgrim Lounge, or something?I realise not many people will go, but the ground is right next to a good pub, the Coach and Horses. You can't see the game from there, but last time I was at Sheffield FC you could nip in at the interval for a swift half.
I read that the club bought the pub because they needed a ground and the pub had a football pitch next to it that it used to use for it's own pub team.
With the way the rent is going at York Street it sounds like a strategy that would work in Boston. Are there any pubs with attached football pitches in the Boston area?!
