THE Boro players were back in training this week after their summer break.

New boys Charlie Griffin, Chris Beardsley, Stacy Long, Joel Byrom and Yemi Odubade all linked up with their new team-mates for the first time and were put through their paces by Graham Westley and his coaching team on a sweltering hot day at the club's Shephalbury Academy.

The players are gearing up for their first pre-season friendly against away to Blue Square South side Chelmsford City on Wednesday, July 15 before welcoming Brighton & Hove Albion to the Lamex Stadium three days later.
