Does this statement mean that the Gliderdrom is up for sale.
Nicole Madin, Business Agent at Christie and Co who is handling the sale comments, “This is an excellent opportunity for a new development to be created, subject to planning permission, which benefits the town of Boston and also presents a purchaser with the option of maintaining an historic music and events venue.”

I would guess that Paul Raynor will follow him to The Gills?

Already confirmed.

Looks like Gateshead will be kicked out of the National League.

That could mess things up a bit.

All was looking good on my bet.

Do us a favour Dip and put some money on us for relegation next season .

By "come good", I was really meaning winning the title, or sniffing round the playoffs in the division above. I agree us being in the hunt for the playoffs in the NLN won't bring *that* many back.

I never really fret too much about our attendances. The moment we come good again we'll have people flocking back who haven't been since Chorley.

Plus there's a whole raft of people who haven't been seen since 2007 who might come sniffing too. We all know a few of those - massive fans in the early 2000s, throwing their weight about, ignoring the warnings about Rodwell and Evans, calling the trust "shit stirrers", instigating forum wars... and who all oddly enough went very quiet after the double relegation and have never been seen since. The worst thing about being good again is we'll have these people back.

I wouldn't say 'flocking back', 1200-1400 seems about the glass ceiling for run of the mill league games if we're doing OK, IE; play offs. Another season of treading water though will see 7-900 the norm on Saturdays.

Agree about the 'greatest ever superfans' though, you know they'll be shouting the loudest when we win and nowhere to be seen when the wheels inevitably come off. Lincoln City have about 6000 at present.......
