Bit special, wasn't it ?

[The Great Eckscape]

Yeah, a typical Boylan finish, classy as always. Went to the match, not the greatest game I've ever been to, and not much in the way of atmosphere. The last two finals at Wembley have been good, but this one lacked that cup final feeling.

 

Also, check out this page in the programme from the Ref (excuse the statistical errors)...

 

[kevinyeah]

i was also at the match, right behind the goal when that went in

I thought that M Jones did well on Saturday as did yesterday's officials.

[The Great Eckscape]

Yeah, I thought the officials had a really good game, no controversy at all.

Hope you will all be saying similar things about Pottsy on Sunday.

Did you book your ticket OK Glenn?

 

I will look out for you on the day if you did and also any another Canvey Fans making it on the day (i have an access all areas pass around Wembley). Never dreamed of that as a Canvey reserve team player all those years ago!!!

Show the Canvey banners glenn, the Cambridge U's know why you will be there!!

Lee has just been released by Stevenage:

Cue the remarkable return?!

 

Lee Boylan has left Stevenage after his contract expired.

The 32-year-old striker played 76 times for Boro after joining from Cambridge in 2008, scoring 23 goals, but he was restricted to just two appearances this season due to injury.

Boylan started his career with West Ham and has played for a number of clubs during his career including Exeter and Canvey Island.

His successful spell at Canvey Island saw him hit 135 goals in 157 appearances.

Someone knew that was coming, his Wikipedia page was updated before that was published.

Mark Stimson was sacked by Barnet a couple of weeks back....shame!

Neil Gregory is a regular programme contributor at CIFC, and Paul Cobb's son was playing for Canvey Island U18's last season, so he was around and about.
