However, the manager Ian Culverhouse He did not expect his team's 10-game unbeaten streak in recent games.
With four consecutive defeats in the fifth tier, Boston lost 4-0 to seventh-tier side Gainsborough Trinity in the FA Cup fourth qualifying round replay last week.
Minor improvements were only made in the 1-0 defeat to Halifax Town at the weekend, but Culverhouse knows his team is in danger of losing touch with 20th place.
Boston is now five points away from that spot while still searching for its first home win in the league all season.
Meanwhile, AFC Fylde were recently named Kevin Phillips As your new manager, in an effort to help clear the table.
Instead of starting on a positive note, the Sunderland legend oversaw defeats in which Fylde conceded four goals in the two games.

Fylde hopes to improve on the point accumulated in seven away games as Boston attempts to end a streak of eight league games without a home victory on the same night.
