Judging by the Censorship topic you will want to check this out quick, but here is a real interesting use of technology (nothing really special really) but good from a squash perspective ... to discuss squash refereeing

Boston United!

A few quick facts:

  • THE dominant non-league team in the 1970s. Won the top league in the non-league pyramid about 17 times in 7 seasons, going about 2365 matches at home unbeaten, or something daft like that.
  • Disgracefully not elected to the Football League in 1978 due to the ground not being up to scratch. Result: three sides of the ground rebuilt into magnificent playing arena that it now is, while second place tinpot club Wigan got elected to the League (who we beat 4/4 that season).
  • Hence, had it not been for our then third-world ground facilities, we would almost certainly now be in the Premiership.
  • (Years of mediocrity.)
  • 01/02 - cheat way into Football League thanks to Steve "cheatmeister" Evans.
  • Evans booted out of club. New owners in. Few seasons later, the cheatmeister and his mates return and take us over the club. Take us £3m into debt and relegated out the Football League.
  • Summer 2007 - demoted further league to Conference Pub Tinpot League North, but respectable local businessmen take over the club. Manager appointed with about 0.23 hours before our first fixture, with 3 players signed on. We are doing mediocre, but have the best ground and 2nd best attendances in the league/
  • Proud holders of the record for biggest win by a non-league side away at a league side when we stuffed tinpot club Derby County 6-1 at there place in the 1950s.


I should have a column on the main site about Boston, not Robert Edwards!

Great link.
Very interesting and plenty to consider.

I agreed with the no let decision.

What did everyone else think?

[2 cents]I'm a rugby person rather than footie, since everyone is talking about it[/2 cents]
