Boston Stumped?

Post by Sideshow Rob »

The FA are looking into allegations of match fixing in last season's Carlise v Boston match. Large sums of money were placed on Carlise to win by a two goal margin and a late goal was conceded by Boston to make the score 4-2. The Boston keeper made a reckless charge into the the opposition's penalty area just before conceding, despite the game being a meaningless end of season affair for the mid table club.

Any chance of a 13 point deduction for Boston? :-)

I have to admit to not wanting to be repreived because of a club folding or being docked points for getting into financial difficulties (Wrexham, Rotherham) or for minor rule infringements (Altrincham, Bury), but the prospect of Boston (&amp Particularly their management duo) being kicked out of the league for this sort of thing would be one of the most satisfying moments in football history for me......

won't happen of course, but at least I can dream

Mr Evans and other Boston directors have been charged with underpayment of PAYE and other IR charges and will appear before a court in September.
