New Boston Town boss Chris Funnell says he aims to add depth to his playing squad.
In an interview with Lincolnshire Non-League Radio’s Darren Trapps ahead of his first game in charge, he said: “The squad’s quite slim in terms of the number of players that we’ve got so, in short, yes, we’ll be looking to add some faces to the group.
But Chris also said it was the players already at the club and the behind-the-scenes set-up at the Mortgages For You Stadium that had attracted him to apply for the post when Martyn Bunce stepped down. He told Darren that the current squad would get the opportunity to show what they can do.
“They’ve done that anyway by what they achieved last year,” he added.
Chris thanked everyone for the welcome he’d been given at the club.
He said hoped the Poachers could emulate some of the success he enjoyed last season at his previous club.
“We did have a good year last year at Lincoln United,” said Chris.
“We went close in all competitions and obviously won the county cup in a game against Boston.”
Chris told Darren he felt it was still possible for the Poachers to get into the United Counties League Premier North play-offs. He would be aiming to get close to last season’s points total.
They’re currently 12th but have up to three games in hand over many of the teams above them.
