Shall we club together to win it... then get Graham Drury to put their players in the wrong positions, in a 1-1-8 formation?

Bitter rivals?

More like little club sliding back to where they belong.......quickly.

Utter tinpottery, they'll soon be back vying with Vauxhall and Solihull as 'most pointless club in the league'.

The highest bid's currently £75. Perhaps we should have a whip-round and manage their team?

Don't you think Jan Budtz would make an excellent left-back?

Forget messing up team selection for a meaningless cup tie, I'd wanted to do my worst in the transfer market. Mark Jones and Jamie Yates released on free transfers. Oh, and Mickey Stones signed from Boston United reserves on a 5-year £400-a-week contract.

+1 for clubbing together for Drury to have the job for a day, that's equates to all the better players leaving and everyone playing out of position.  Isn't that what we would all do anyway, this way noone gets to miss it by having to do it  ;D
So many people have come and gone, their faces fade as the years go by.
Yet I still recall as I wander on, as clear as the sun in the summer sky.

I didn't think it was possible to take the Lincs Shield/Senior Cup  less seriously than Jason Lee (remember that team he named against Grantham in the final last season ? ) but Trinity have managed to do it !  Whilst we're at it lets have rush goalies,  kitted out in it's a knockout style comedy foam gloves .

Why don't 200 united fans chip in £1 and all manage shitborough. We can all stand down the touch line and manage our yard. They will have to get 4 team coaches, and on the coach we will sing the wheels on your house go round and round!
