If any of ours consider Alfresco as a better option than us, they need their heads read and will only be interested in a quick buck.

If thats the case they good riddance if they want to go.

IMHO, If Alfreton (or any club) offer us decent money for any of our players we would be bonkers not to accept. I trust the mangers to find a replacement and we need the cash.

Nope but you can have DD. Althou i think they need each other to be any good. why one grinds em down then the other comes on and makes the impact.

After spending 70 min fighting Big D the look on some defenders is the best part of the game when you take him of and send suarez on

Personally i think that although Pearson still has alot to learn he is the best central defender i have ever seen in a Boston shirt, although we have had a few that have been useful Ellender,Monington,Balmer,White,Rennie,Hoyle.

I agree too. I don't know about the 60s, 70s and early 80s as I didn't start going regularly until 1985 and am fully aware that there were some special players in those earlier decades but Pearson is pure quality. That run he did on Saturday where it almost finished with him glancing in the header was amazing. Yes, he is still learning but he will be one hell of a player.

Stuart Balmer oozed class, and Alan White was a proper centre-half (although it seems everywhere else he went, he wasn't liked). Players like Monington (Conference), Rennie (Dr Martens) and Hoyle (Dr Martens) were excellent at their level.

Pearson will need to prove himself at least at Conference level (hopefully with us) before he can get near Balmer and White.

The Adamson/Thompson partnership wasn't bad in the 70's either :)

I think what you have to remember is the likes of Hoyle, Balmer, White and Monnington were in their prime while at Boston, whereas Pearson is still very inexperienced and just a youngster.

If he carries on playing like this he will almost certainly progress up the ladder, great player!
