Final standings for Season 28 see BUFC comfortable in 3rd spot!
Our strengthen squad helped us to create a comfortable 6 point cushion ahead of Tank in 4th place, but defeat to the Mean Machine on the final day of the season meant that we still ended up a whole 9 points behind them. The introduction of goal difference to the league tables this season saw us finish with a fantastic GD of +96 - frustratingly just 4 goals short of the century! (maybe next season chaps!?)
Obviously the excitement got the better of some of new signings when our third place finish was confirmed in the penultimate game of the season at Ipswich - where we won convincingly 6-nil! So much so, that our flamboyant midfielder, Lightning Lee decided to take advantage of the ref's poor eyesight and he decided to show him a clean pair of heels with his rather over-enthusiastic match celebration! (see picture below)
Lee gets a bit carried away and the Blind ref ends up nearly swallowing his whistle!
And so the season ends - and the mighty Boston march on..!!! Can we improve on this finish next season? We are all hoping that we can snatch that second place - and that Lee manages to keep his kit on next season - at least til he gets back to the changing rooms!
C'mon Boston... We are United..!!!
