Boston

This is Guiseley's fifth consecutive play-off campaign!

Hope they do it this time - mainly because it'll be by far my closest away game if we don't go up.

But I bet we go up so that game never happens...

I was at this game today, Hell of a game,completely different footie to  valderama premier,Have to say Chorley were a better footballing side but were very lucky to win in the end. The second Chorley goal was a wonderful overhead kick in the last seconds of the 4 minutes added time.Southwell was quiet all game and is still fairly lightweight and even though he has scored 30 goals this season,I can't see he would be strong enough in the van prem.He did have one cracking shot that hit the inside of the upright if it had gone in Boston would have been 3 nil up and should have been out of sight but these are fine lines in football. In the added 30 mins the match could have gone either way . Down to penalties,it's now down to Boston to take advantage of a Chorley miss and Boston have to score to secure a place in the Playoff final, up steps the excellent Piergianni, smashes his shot against the underside of the crossbar,I would have put money on him scoring,everyone in the ground thought it had hit the top of the net but not so, the Town end supporters at this point run on to the pitch thinking the game was won,after a few minutes the fans were herded off the pitch and the penaly shoot out began again,Chorley then scored and it then became sudden death with Bostons impressive Rene Steer also hiting the crossbar,Ending a very enjoyable game with Chorley coming out on top, winning 5 -4 on penalties.

No such drama for Town  tomorrow, an easy win   3-1.  LJL,Pitman and Arnold.    6500 Happy Mariners,
200 sad southerners.
