I'm not saying the hole pitch was playable. I am saying that they were clearly prepared to play.

There was a hole in the pitch? This just gets worse and worse, no wonder it was called off...

Perhaps we could have played them at Polo..

Yes, i remember going down for that one. We were in a pub near the ground not long before kick off when someone came in and said it was off.. We didn't believe it at first as it was quite a mild day and getting warmer. The Lincoln fans in the pub also thought someone was on a wind up. If I recall co...

Did we have to be there by 1.00 pm.? .. Genuine question.

To be fair Skerningham is a very unpopular development for locals in that area and the more that comes out about the land owners Corney and his crew and local elections in May I just can’t see it happening. So that leaves Faverdale which is miles out of town and all that traffic going through West ...

I think we should all chip in..
If 400 or 500 of us all put in 1p. It would go a long way to getting the necessary important, expensive equipment.

I have just seen the goals. What a great performance. In particular I love Becks reaction especially after his goals.
I have never seen him so animated as he has been over the last few games and long may that continue. He is clearly enjoying his football at the moment, as are the team

Oh dear I fear a big letdown coming

Why and a BIG let down for who?

Boreham Wood or Southend away on the weekend of 14th Jan should we win tomorrow Wopee. Better hope it is Southend as the gate receipts might cover the cost of the travelling and overnight expenses. Goodness me yes.. I have just checked the two teams average attendances this season. Southend .... 57...

I hope the club are in talks with him over an extension, even if it's just to guarantee a fee if he does move on in the summer. Sent from my Pixel 6 Pro using Tapatalk Lambert isn’t going to sign a new deal just to ensure that the club receives a fee over the summer. He is going to want to keep his...

At the risk of drawing people away from their debate about floodlights. I think Curle would only have been looking at Dodds. Mainly because he will be able to get him on loan, and on the cheap. At the end of the season that they were promoted, they had 8 players on loan at the club. As you can only ...

sorry. Double post

Just watched it. Disgusting what the board members did. You are right, it is disgusting.. Unfortunately they are getting away with it. The only people they are accountable to is themselves. They are not interested in other clubs within the same league structure.. The FA are equally as guilty for no...

I understand Quakerlad’s disappointment - it is disappointing, there’s no two ways about it, Leesley had a massive impact while he was with us, he just seemed to slot straight in. Quakerlads disappointment was with the board and DJ. (His words not mine) Sorry but I don't understand that.. we could ...

Top of the table and more than decent weather should equal a good crowd, hopefully over 1500.

That's a very cautious figure from you Darlo Pete. Are you sure you haven't missed a nought off the end.

six games in 17 days, four of which were long away days, hats of to the lads fitting in work and families get through this one and hopefully a few can rest and recover after next week. Not sure Lawlor will be recovered in time and possibly kept for Saturday if big Wheats not around. According to to...

You can’t help but feel this does have a bit of a banana skin feel about it but we can’t allow that to happen. I do believe that they have one of the best non league managers in Wilkin but hopefully he hasn’t had long enough to change their fortunes. Makes sense to stick with the system that worked...

Lambert is the one who needs a rest. He's looked out of sorts of late. Felix is another who hasn't been up to the mark recently. Maybe put both on the bench and give others a chance. Totally agree about Lambert who should not start & we could replace with Barbosa but I suppose a lot depends on who ...

My thoughts exactly - If we don't pick up results in the next 2 games then sure, but it's only 1 particularly unexpected result so far since our big winning run in the league (Brackley draw and Kings Lynn loss were perfectly possible). To be fair, Buxton had been spending money and were fancied by ...

I am not too disappointed with the draw.. to be honest I fully expected a draw but thought it would be 0..0. In the end the full time scoreline was probably deserved We are not going g to go through the season without some disappointing results and for me Brackley are a benchmark as they are consist...

Assistant refs were hardly use nor ornament & ref bought every slip & prattfall from them in 2nd half. Poor Beck hardly had a decision go his way all day despite being sandwiched, pulled, elbowed & plain fouled all the game. Usual Darlo stunt of getting a decent crowd & chucking vital points away w...

Game summed up in two sentences for me. One manager did a good job with his team at half time the other didn’t. One manager did a good job with his subs the other didn’t. It's easier to change things around at half time if you have had a poor first half. Clearly he strengthened his midfield which m...

To be fair to you... That was also my thought when I saw the team

0....1. Final score... Felix

1-0 final score.Very poor up front and a terrible result.Big doubts about Hazell and Felix imo and AA needs another striker alongside Beck. Sent from my moto g(6) play using Tapatalk I think it's more the system we play.. 4 3 3 does not work for Hazel or the team. Also regarding today's game. Wheat...

I think our position in the table flatters us some what. I don't think we have played well yet and have only played one of the top sides, and that was a defeat. On saying that, we struggled against the bottom sides last season and did well against the top sides. October is going to be an interesting...

Personally I'm fed up of his diatribes. It's like walking through treacle when he's challenging every comment/point and he's happy to put people down as thick or idiot. I honestly think old git meant that genuinely. Sadly Gramps often made useful contributions, for instance updating season informat...

There are some funny takes on this thread. The performance was far from a classic, but we scored 3 goals, hit the post, Beck had a header well saved and Hazel had a couple of openings. All whilst limiting Southport chances wise. Their goals aside, I am really struggling to think of any other chance...

Don't agree with that. I thought both fullbacks were very poor. For me Hedley was ran ragged. In my opinion it was his poorest performance for a couple of years.

I am not at all surprised that it is under subscribed. We have had enough.
On saying that, I bet we take more than double the fans that they have at our place.

Got to say that I was disappointed with the squealing and histrionics of the Glaucester players. They tried to influence the ref every time their was a tackle. The ref bought it during the first half but must have realised what they were doing as he had a good second half and the game was allowed to...
