Quakers looking for first back-to-back wins of the season
By Ray Simpson
Boston provide the opposition at Blackwell Meadows
We’re looking to record back-to-back wins for the first time this season when Boston visit Blackwell Meadows on Saturday.
Quakers’ spirits are much better after the great 2-1 away win at FC United last Saturday, and hopes are high that we can record our second home win of the season.
The match will be covered on Darlo Fans Radio and the club’s official Twitte and website, while the club programme is also on sale, price £2.50.
