Boston United

Boston United are one of English football's most enduring non-league clubs, a proud amber and black institution from the market town of Boston in Lincolnshire who have been a fixture in the upper reaches of non-league football for decades. Founded in 1933, the Pilgrims reached the Football League in 2002 after winning the Conference, delivering one of the most celebrated promotions in the club's history. Their passionate fanbase has followed them through the lows of non-league life and the highs of Football League competition. Founded in 1933, Boston United play at York Street in Boston, Lincolnshire, England. They compete in the National League, the fifth tier of English football. Key achievements include winning the Conference in 2001-02 to secure their only Football League stint, four Northern Premier League titles in the 1970s, and an FA Trophy Final appearance in 1985. They wear amber and black. Boston United's amber and black kits have been a constant since 1951, and few colour combinations in the lower leagues feel as distinctive. The Conference-winning shirts from 2001-02, worn during the season that finally delivered Football League status after decades of near-misses, are treasured pieces among Pilgrims fans. The club's retro kits from the 1970s Northern Premier League-winning era also hold a special place in the hearts of those who remember Boston as a genuine non-league powerhouse.
