A retro snap from 1988

how do i print screen

BUFC v Barnet from April 1988.

We won 2-1 to spoil Barnet's chances of catching Lincoln at the top of the table, I remember it being a late Boston goal that won the game and there being hundreds of Lincoln fans at the game.

The Barnet number 11 in the foreground (with the dreadlocks / ponytail) was Francis Awaritefe, who played for longer for Sutton United and had only a shorter spell at Barnet. I was reading something about him a little while back. He ended up emigrating to Australia with his Australian girlfriend, whom he then married. He went on to become a nationalised Australian and earned full international caps for the Australian national side. After retiring from playing he was a director of football somewhere and also had a spell as a football pundit on an Australian TV channel. The Australian Gary Lineker?
