For the first half hour we looked more than one division better than Boston, Marshall playing off Amond was very good.

Looked to me that Monkhouse scored the first but just read Amond deflected it in? It was at the far end from the Town fans.

Once Marshall went off we were never as good and Boston got back into it. Stupid goal to give away but let's hope that's it now!

Struggled for a spell but Mackreth started to take the game by the scruff of the neck and Amond, whilst laying on the floor, toed the ball home and Pearson rose to head in from close range.

Hope those missing are fully fit for next week, whether it is Pittman, Arnold or Marshall who partners Amond should give us enough movement and skill to create chances.

Amazing how Marshall has gone from decent but not quite good enough for Town, to Lincoln misfit, to looking like an essential part of the new attacking line up.

I don't believe thats possible, certain people of the fishy spoke before he even got here that hes not good enough and a bad signing, and we on the fishy are never wrong

I openly admit that I wasn't impressed with his signing after him running into dead ends last time around, however he seems to have more outlets now and he is becoming a real playmaker. I'm very pleased to eat my words. UTM

Echo the comments made about Marshall. He looked unstoppable. Hope he came off as a precaution. The 10 minute spell after they scored the daft equaliser I thought for the first time in the (few) games I've seen that we looked a bit "all at sea". Enter Mackreth who put in the best display I can remember seeing from him albeit against inferior opposition. He was everywhere-both wings, cutting into the middle and Boston simply couldn't handle his pace and movement.
Pearson got a great reception from the Boston fans although their "He's one of our own" chant made me titter.
I'm not sure where Monkhouse fits into Hurst's plans but in Hurst we definitely trust.
Gowling led the defence well.
Both full backs put in a good shift.
Macca should share the blame for their goal with whoever hammered the back pass at him at chest height-I couldn't see it was at the other end.

Best pre-season for results I can remember since 1971/72 and those of us old enough remember very well what happened then.....


The aim of argument or discussion should not be victory but progress.

The formation change was the key in the second half, bringing Monkhouse off for Pearson and going 3-5-2 gave us control again and Jack Mac deserves credit when he went up front, everything in the last 30 minutes went through him.

Not a bad result considering we had three key strikers missing, Pearson playing left back, Toto right back and Gowling in the middle, missed Marshall when he went off but Jack did Ok second half, strange format tho

We played 3 - 5 - 1 - 1 after Pearson came on.
