That'll do nicely. I'll bid you all a good evening as I need to dash as I need to visit the wife in hospital. Later peeps!
Woah. Hope all's good there, Buddy.

The claim in the post I replied to was that Sadlier is more adept at the wing-back role than Jones.
Ahhh, gotcha.

Re: Oh Quelle Surprise! Barnsley (A) 15:00 Monday 02/01/23

Brilliant goal from Bolton there. Told ya Dempsey was playing well. What a goal! He's only more adept at the role if you ignore the defensive aspect of it. I'm pretty sure that no-one's expecting Dempsey to display the slightest defensive ability, nor inclination. Against Derby, Evatt's thinking wa...

Yes Dempsey.
Delighted for him. He's this season's 'there's a player in there somewhere' player.

Happy with that if we're sticking with the same formation, though it's high time Mr Dempsey stepped up.

Dapo is suspended for 3 games. Hope the Imp cheat is proud of himself. The penalty box was like the old Wryton Stadium on wrestling night. He was elbowed in the face with the ball not even in play. No matter what else was going on that’s a deserved ban for Dapo and he only has himself to blame. If ...

Re: Where are you going tonight?

I'd really like to go and see Roger Waters on his forthcoming tour, but tickets start at £100 a pop for the shitiest seats in the house at The Arena. Really? It's being billed as his 'Farewell Tour', which of course increases the desire to see him perform, but basically, for half decent seats it's g...

Bravo on the title Sir 👏! A ground where historically we've had little success. That ain't changing this season. 0-1 or 0-2 defeat In November and December, in the league, they've won five, drawn one and lost none (and got through to the 3rd round having put both us and Crewe out) In the same perio...

We are going to get hammered here I reckon.
Once again, we had 74% of the possession at Lincoln, from which we managed to put one solitary attempt on target, set against their three attempts on target from 26%.

It's not working, Mr Evatt.

Re: Tonight's Football

Well another game last night and another win for Arsenal! Can hardly believe myself how well we have been doing so far this season, long way to go but I’m hoping 2023 is our year! Although I won't be putting any money on it, I have a sneaky feeling that Newcastle are about to spring you a surprise ...

Oh Quelle Surprise! Barnsley (A) 15:00 Monday 02/01/23

It works better if your French pronunciation's bobbins :) Now, important business. Our ticket office is no longer selling tickets for this game, but Barnsley have announced 300 pay on the gate slots are available (£25.00 for grown ups, cash only, Turnstile 44). So, if you do fancy chancing your luck...

Anyone got any sport related New Years resolutions then?! Last year was one of my worst for getting out running in ages. I’d like to say this year will be better but motivation is seriously lacking! I may join the leisure centre and get to some fitness classes instead! I've spent way too long doing...

Nixon now has us linked with Tom Eaves. If we’re going through old squad lists can we leave out 2015 - 2020 please!!
I treat very little of what Nixon has to say seriously. If we do need to 'knock it up to the big lad' then we have Bodvarsson, who at least has some clue as to where the goal is.

Re: January 2023 Transfer Window

Not unreasonable Brucie, we're not getting Roberston from Liverpool anytime soon. We look ok getting to the final third, but not for the first or last time, last night, low block is quite happy to let us do that and rely on us not then being able to unlock. Often if we create an overlap we're as li...

Re: January 2023 Transfer Window

I'd like a good LWB and a no10 for Jan... Here's a question - do clubs actually get good wing backs at this level? Especially left-footed ones? It seems to be the Job Description of the wing back to do absolutely bloody everything on their given side, and I really don't think that players who can c...

Re: Can we leave Lincoln green? Away to the Imps Fri,30th Jan. 7-45.

In and around their area we are a shambles. A complete and utterly clueless shambles. Hopeful lofts into the box in the forlorn hope that someone who can finish might get on the end of it is not a credible plan.
