Boston United prepare to host Peterborough United in a pre-season friendly at Jakeman's Community Stadium on Saturday. The National League side, who finished 12th last season with 59 points (15W-14D-17L), are looking to build momentum ahead of the new campaign under manager Paul Hurst.
Paul Hurst's side have strengthened their squad this summer with notable signings. Jake Rooney, a 22-year-old defender, joined despite interest from higher-tier clubs. The Pilgrims also added experience with Jamie Grimes, a 35-year-old former Chesterfield defender who impressed during a loan spell last season. The backline has been further bolstered by George Ward, Lewis Shipley, and Sai Sachdev.
Peterborough United's pre-season form
Luke Williams' side arrive in Lincolnshire unbeaten in their four pre-season games so far. They secured a 2-1 win over FC Magpies, a 0-0 draw with Saudi Pro League side Neom SC, and a 3-2 victory against Colchester United. A youthful Posh XI also won 1-0 at Peterborough Sports on Wednesday.
Key details for fans
Tickets for the match are available via the Boston United Ticket Office, priced at £12 for adults, £8 for concessions, and £4 for Under 16s. Posh+ subscribers can stream the game as part of their package, while match passes will be available for £5. The Pilgrims will be looking to continue their strong recent form, having won four of their last five matches (WWWWD) and ending last season with a 3-1 victory over Hartlepool on April 25, 2026.
