Boston Town ready for run of home games

The Poachers will be hoping to get back to winning ways after coming unstuck at the weekend.

They fell to an agonising 1-0 defeat at Ashby Ivanhoe in the United Counties League Premier North.

In a game of few chances, Jordan Tate was controversially sin-binned in the second half, with the hosts scoring an 80th-minute winner soon afterwards.

Martyn Bunce's side felt aggrieved by a number of refereeing decisions that went against them, including strong claims for a first-half penalty that were waved away.

Town are hoping for a good run in the FA Vase, which offers decent prize money and the realistic prospect of reaching a Wembley final. Fellow United Counties League side Newport Pagnell have been to Wembley for the past two finals.

They will face a struggling Hucknall Town side searching for a new manager after the resignation of Andy Ingle, due to time pressures caused by the job.

On 30 September, the Poachers are back at the Mortgages For You Stadium for a league game against Belper United, with another home league fixture against AFC Mansfield scheduled for 7 October.

There will be live commentary on all three games from Lincolnshire Non-League Radio.
