Herewith today's CH programme-piece, in which, between us, we have managed to exhaust the world's supply of Boston puns and USA gags.
Unless, of course, you know different...
Happy reading!

Good afternoon from Edgeley Park - and welcome to our visitors, who, having just missed out on a play-off finish for 2013/14, are currently riding high again, as well as unbeaten on their travels, this term.
Fellow Hatters will also need no reminding that Boston were responsible for inflicting upon County a rude awakening to the world of the Conference North on last season’s opening Saturday. Just a little extra incentive there for us to halt The Pilgrims’ Progress!
Challenging though today’s opposition may be, EP does seem to have re-discovered a few of its erstwhile Fortress features that weren’t securely in place when Boston last came a-visiting here and scored four. Our demolition of the previously-undefeated Lowestoft here a fortnight ago was truly emphatic, and followed hot on the heels of another successful three-goal haul against Bradford one week previously, so County will be keen to make it a hat-trick of home victories this afternoon.
County Heaven will invariably extend greetings to former Hatters when they re-visit SK3 with other clubs, and there is today one such player in Carl Piergianni - a mainstay of the Boston defence for over a year now, who featured here during our inaugural Conference campaign of 2011/12. Welcome back, ’Pidge’!
Now then, Sandy. What’s all this I hear about you arranging a tea party?!

Ah yes, the Mad Hatters version of GBBO!
(County) Heavens alive - I thought the Lowestoft fans a couple of weeks ago had a long journey, but a cursory glance at Google has confirmed that today’s visitors have travelled over 3,000 miles to get here! “Come in an airplane, you must have come in an airplane”*
Right, some congratulatory housekeeping. With August coming to an end, so too has the first month of Downy’s Prediction League and the plaudits go to Gazza, who stormed to victory by correctly guessing 5 out of 7 results in the final week. My latest quiz also finished recently, with Archie comfortably leading from the start, thanks mostly to guessing the link on the first day! Can you work out what connects Tony Hibbert, Frank Skinner, Damien Duff and Tim Lovejoy? Check if you’re right (or put yourself out of your misery) in our Games Room!
The Games Room also hosts ‘Lennie’s Limerick Lounge’, where each match features a rhyme for you to complete. Recent winners (for our matches against BPA, Stalyvegas and Lowestoft respectively) were Epworth Hatter, Gazza and Lennie himself - well done to each.
County Heaven - “You wanna go where everybody knows your name”. (Cheers? Boston? Ah, forget it.)
Enjoy the match!
*I’m quietly confident that this is the first ‘Boston/America’ gag our visitors will have ever heard.
