Boston United leaves 86 years of football history. Apparently "after about 86 years the club will move on".

Hate to blow my own trumpet but I am fluent in talking Double Dutch, Gobbledygook and a load of Bo**ocks, well that’s what my wife’s says anyway.

There was a lad called Greg who used to go the match who did actually speak Dutch. I seem to recall he was asked by the Sun to translate Ruud van Nistelrooy's personal website when the latter signed for Man U.

But I think he stopped coming when Evans returned

It must be Greg who runs the Folk Club.

The Dutch language is as confusing as the Welsh language.
from a welshmans point of view lol.
"I don't believe you""
"That's of minor importance, what is of major f***ing importance,is that l believe you".

Dutch is just sticking English and German words in a blender and seeing what comes out. Looks at their numbers...

I create YouTube videos (BUFC/FM/CM 01-02), and stream Football Manager on Twitch as BostonUnitedFM.

I remember with a laugh the episode of Green Green Grass when the Driscoll brothers visit Boyce and Marlene. The Welsh neighbour says something and then the little Driscoll brother says “What’s that noise he’s making” ? So funny.
