Returning to Boston United was an easy decision, says Spencer Weir-Daley
SPENCER Weir-Daley insists he has no regrets about leaving Boston United last summer, but admits he is glad to be back at York Street.
Weir-Daley rejoined the Pilgrims last week after having his contract at Blue Square Bet Premier side Telford cancelled by mutual consent.

The 26-year-old striker announced his return with a goal and a terrific all-round display in Boston’s 4-2 defeat at Dartford in the FA Trophy on Saturday.
Weir-Daley left the Pilgrims last year after failing to sign a new contract as he held out for a move to a higher level.
He eventually landed a deal with Telford, but struggled to establish himself at the New Bucks Head and was loaned out to Evo-Stik League outfit Buxton.
After returning to his parent club, Weir-Daley again could not to force himself into Bucks boss Andy Sinton’s plans and eventually left the Shropshire club earlier this month.
His availability alerted Pilgrims bosses Jason Lee and Lee Canoville, who held off competition from other clubs re-sign the former Notts County forward.
“I got a late call from the (Boston) managers because I had some options,” revealed Weir-Daley, who took his Pilgrims goals tally to 36 at Dartford.
“There were two or three other clubs interested in me, but I’ve always kept in touch with Jason and he put a call in at the last minute.
“As soon as he called I knew that I wanted to come back. It was a pretty easy decision after being here before and knowing a few of the players and the managers.
“I felt this was the right decision for me.”
After ending last season as United’s leading scoring, Weir-Daley says his decision to leave York Street was based on pure ambition to test himself at a higher level.
“Although it was an up and down time for me (at Telford), it was a good experience, although things didn’t pan out the way I wanted,” he added.
“It was all down to ambition, there was nothing sinister in it. Some fans might think it was about money, but it was genuinely because a team from a higher level gave me a chance and that was something I didn’t want to turn down.”
Despite having no regrets about the way he left the Pilgrims, Weir-Daley admits he would deal with the same situation differently in the future.
“I probably would. You learn from experiences and I’ll be a year wiser,” he said. “But I have to cross that bridge when I come to it. One thing I have learned is that anything is possible in football.”
