A revitalised Jamie Yates is convinced Boston United can snatch the UniBond League Premier Division title from under the noses of runaway leaders Bradford Park Avenue.

Yates, on his first outing following a three-match suspension, played a pivotal role as the Pilgrims continued their promotion push by thrashing Ossett Town 7-0 at York Street on Saturday.

Anthony Church, with two, Spencer Weir-Daley, Danny Davidson, Shaun Pearson, Marc Newsham and Danny Sleath all cashed in as Boston put second-bottom Town to the sword.

United remain six points behind long-time leaders Bradford, who have played a game less than Rob Scott and Paul Hurst's side.

However, Yates, who had a hand in Boston's four first-half goals against Ossett, believes the leaders could crack under weight of being title favourites.

And after taking 15 points from their last six league matches, the 21-year-old says the Pilgrims are ready to pounce.

"We're absolutely buzzing, that's four wins (in all competitions) on the bounce now," declared Yates.

"We go to Durham on Saturday when we'll hope to make it five. Then we've got some big, big fixtures which will define our season.

"They will determine whether we're going to be up there (fighting for the title) or settling for a play-off place.

"Our aim is to win the league, make no mistake. It's all down to us.

"Yes, we're hoping that other teams slip up. But we feel, if we can get a run together and take something from the big games, we can be successful.

"I still think we can win the league. If we play like we did on Saturday we've got a chance.

"I fancy Bradford to slip up. They've got some big games. So have we, but I think we can come out on top."
