I think I’d much rather save some players for Saturday but the reality is we can’t afford to drop points on any game. Go for the strongest team possible imo, clearly from the last few seasons we seem to thrive with a small squad especially when the odds are stacked against us.
You have to go all out for the next game. This is our game in hand over Gateshead. Rochdale have a hard game against York and Halifax also travel to Woking. Gateshead and Halifax are both in our sights. Tonight is where we have to capitalise. We win tonight and a draw Saturday might not be so bad.
 
For those who have been to Boston before / are going this evening - what is the best bet for getting a drink before hand? Closest away recommended pub seems a fair distance? In the ground?

There were lots of decent boozers in town, once upon a time. A further problem, since Boston United moved out of York Street, which was a proper old-fashioned ground, the stadium is nowhere near the town centre… There’s a Spoon’s, which is all right. Beer in town and then taxi to the ground?
 
Hayes
GSM, Taylor, Golding, Ralph
Keenan, Morton, Parillon
Kendall, Hopper, Walker

But be prepared to change it up from the bench!

Exactly right.

So that brings about the question of what is everyone doing tonight....

Decent offering at the ground. Believe they ran out of one of the Ales after the Blues on Tour coach arrived.

Don't want to jinx it however but it's looking a little misty around spalding and fog is expected Wednesday morning. Possible early arrival?
 
This will be the first time I'll be going to a match for about 2 years, as I don't get around too well any more but it's only 17 miles from where I live, so I couldn't resist it. I hope we do better than we did in my last match, when we got spanked by Notts County at Meadow Lane the season they were promoted back to League 2.
