Boston earn Worthington Cup spot

Second half goals from Steve Burton and Simon Weatherstone gave Boston victory over Bristol Rovers in the Worthington Cup preliminary round.

How do we now have a preliminary round?

Same number of teams as before.

ipswich got a surprise UEFA cup spot and therefore got a bye to round 4.which messed everything up.

The Pilgrims manage to stay in the League and get into the first round of the Cup... but they won't be in either for long.

With regards to giant-killings, what about Rushden & Diamonds against Millwall?
