Former Town full-back and Boston manager Neil Thompson felt released Blues' midfielder Robert Dickinson did well in a Pilgrims' second string match against York last night.

Dickinson was one of two trialists on show, the other being Ryan Clark, a Notts County defender, and Thompson wants to consider both them further before making a decision whether to sign them: "Robert and Ryan did exceptionally well and they are worth having another look at again.

"I was impressed with what I saw from both of them and they have definitely given me something to think about."

The former nappy salesman is keen to strengthen his side as they seek to secure their position in the Football League.

Earlier in the season Boston signed Richard Logan permanently and also had Steve Burton, who left the Blues for Doncaster earlier this week, on loan. Town defender Lee Beevers also had a trial at York Street last month.
