6th January, 2012 saw the home game at Boston United against their long time rivals, LoTW's. Always a close match between two strong sides, but today the newly revitalised BUFC showed their fans just what they are capable of with an emphatic 2-nil home victory!
Straight from the kick-off Boston showed their intentions and immediately went on the attack. Their midfield seemed dominant and provided a series of through balls for Bimbo - usually reliable in his striker's role, but today couldn't beat the Wing's keeper, Gretha, who pulled off a string of three saves from the Boston striker.
BUFC's constant pressure had the Wings pegged back in their own half and finally it was Headhunter (JW to the fans!) who opened the scoring in first half injury time. The second half saw the Wing's attempt to stage a brief come-back, but their strikers couldn't break through the Boston defence, with good tackles from Ayo and AJ to stop their chances.
This frustration spread to the Wing's defence too, when their keeper Gretha, rushed out to bring down the charging BUFC striker Headhunter, on 62 mins. Mr Strict in charge booked her for the offence and JW calmly stepped up to slot home the spot-kick sealing Boston United's victory!

A great win for Boston United and the fans went home happy with their team sitting in 4th place in the league, planning their away trip to face London in the next game. Despite his two goals to secure the win, it was recent signing, Sterkel in midfield who picked up the (wo)Man of the Match award for her control of the midfield and crisp passing. Well done to all the team - even Gunny the BUFC keeper, who didn't have to even touch the ball in this game!
C'mon Boston..!!!
