Known to fans as The Pilgrims for that very reason, the club play their home matches at the Jakemans Community Stadium, the modern 5,000-capacity ground that became their new base in 2020 after almost ninety years at the famous York Street. Boston are best known to a national audience for their five seasons in the English Football League between 2002 and 2007, before financial turmoil dropped them back into non-league.\u003c\/p\u003e\n\u003cp\u003eThe 2025\/2026 campaign - during which this unique away shirt was worn - was Boston's second season back in the National League (English football's fifth tier) since 2007\/2008. Manager Graham Coughlan was sacked in January 2026 amid a difficult start to the season, with former Shrewsbury Town and Grimsby boss Paul Hurst returning to Boston to take charge for the second time in his career.\u003c\/p\u003e\n\u003cp\u003eUnder Hurst the turnaround was emphatic. Boston lost just four of their final seventeen league matches - three of those defeats coming against York City, Rochdale and Carlisle United, who would go on to finish as the division's top three - and climbed clear of the relegation conversation to finish in the top half on 59 points. It was a season that exceeded expectations and reaffirmed the club's growing reputation as one of the most ambitious projects outside the EFL. The Pilgrims look ahead to next season hoping to push further up the table.\u003c\/p\u003e\n\u003cp\u003eFollow the club on X: @BostonUnitedFC\u003c\/p\u003e\n\u003cp\u003e \u003c\/p\u003e\n\u003cp\u003e \u003c\/p\u003e","brand":"Surprise Shirts","offers":[{"title":"Default Title","offer_id":55592832958840,"sku":null,"price":0.0,"currency_code":"GBP","in_stock":false}],"thumbnail_url":"\/\/cdn.shopify.com\/s\/files\/1\/0509\/5564\/9221\/files\/BostonUnited2025_2026AwayShirt_1.jpg?v=1782819694","url":"https:\/\/surpriseshirts.co.uk\/products\/boston-united-2025-2026-away-shirt","provider":"Surprise Shirts","version":"1.0","type":"link"}
