Past Poachers players turning back the clock
Former fans’ favourites Paul Goodhand, Mark Foster, Ollie Pinner and current assistant manager and squad member Lori Borbely will be organising the event to raise some cash for Kris Jones.
In August 2014 Jones was involved in a car accident on the A1 which left him hospitalised for 11 months.

“Kris is a good guy and we wanted to do something for him,” Borbely said.
Goodhand added: “Kris and his family have come through a very difficult time and we want to raise some funds so he can treat them to something nice.”
The contest will be between two sides of ex-Boston Town players.

“It will be a good chance for fans to see a lot of old players on the pitch together one more time,” Borbely continued.
“The more players we can get the better, so if anyone is interested in playing it would be good to hear from them.”
The game will be held at the DWB Stadium on Saturday May 13 (KO 2pm).
