He'll need to be good to kick start their season, if we think things are bad here, it could be so much worse!

ah well its all about opinions lol

his dad was a good player in his time, paul futcher

i bet if u look at the stats, most of ben futchers goals have come in the last 5 minutes of games, hes fooking huge, they always chucked him forward at the end, and he nearly always got a goal v's torquay

i saw Ben play 3 or 4 times against Leyton Orient and he scored in each game, as soon as he came up for the corners u knew it could only be aimed at him and 9 times out of 10 he would win it in the air

I can vouch for that the bloke is huge!! Been out on the beers with him in Lincoln hard work when you are standing at the bar!!!

Not a bad defender - doesn't seem to jump alot - but hey if you are over 6'4 does it really matter. Hasn't been a success at boston but what do you expect with the clueless tw@ts running that joint LOL!!
