Is Dan out for the season?
The prognosis was that he'd be out for "months". Injury happened on 5th December, surgery was probably a few days later. At a guess I'd say we won't see him back in a matchday squad until end of Feb/start of March.

Re: Who opened the door? My money is on Janus! 2024 January transfer thread.

Pardon my ignorance, but if he’s not good enough to be in Lincoln’s team, what makes him good enough to be in ours? I'm assuming at the start of the season the Lincoln coaching staff didn't feel he was ready for L1 football (he's only 19 after all), but his great form for Walsall - 10 goals in 20 l...

Re: Whatever floats your boat.. V Oxford United, Tuesday 28th Nov.7-45.

I do wonder whether Evatt sees Jerome as a player to utilise when we're up against it. Someone who can head the ball away and know enough up front to offer something of utility. Jerome's not featured for some time so perhaps this game maybe his route back into the fold. Not that I'm advocating for ...

Appart from the one spring that I stupidly broke mid 1st half was the couch comfortable for everyone? Certainly was DJB, top man. Just 3 points behind 1st and level on points with 2nd who’ve just lost their manager, things aren’t looking too bad. Really odd to think just a few weeks ago internet se...

Re: Oh to be in Bolton....At Home to Carlisle United , Sat 7th Sept. 3-o'clock.

I still can’t quite get my head around our summer transfer business. It started off well with the free signings of Baxter and Dacres-Cogley. But we then either missed out on a lot of targets or were very complacent, deciding to pretty much go with what we had. Why did we not sign another RWB after t...

Fylde are currently bottom of the National League with just 9 points from their opening 14 games so going to be a tough gig for them. Best of luck lads.

Max Conway just been recalled from Rochdale loan. Does this mean Randy is out injured tomorrow? Hmm possibly but not necessarily. He wasn’t getting much game time at Rochdale - just 127 minutes in the six weeks he was there, so maybe we’ve decided to send him somewhere else… …at least I’m praying t...

Re: What Age is Steven? Bolton v Stevenage Tues. 3-11-2023 7-15.

Has the potential to be the most frustrating game of the season this. Stevenage are the most direct side in the division and typically of a Steve Evans side, they’ll have a clear plan to slow the game down and antagonise us with plenty of gamesmanship.

Any win will do.

Re: Can we be Imp-erious this season? Lincoln, H, 05/08

The problem we have with Dec John is that while he won’t be on mega bucks, he’ll still be on a decent wedge (minimum £3kpw) making it hard to shift him on to another team. Not many teams in L2 will be able to afford to match that and mid-table/lower L1 teams wont take him on because he’s not hard wo...

Good to see. This season’s group certainly seems to be a bit higher quality than last season’s based on their results over the past few weeks. Will be interesting to see if any of them get a chance in the cup games coming up.

Re: Can we be Imp-erious this season? Lincoln, H, 05/08

It’s hard enough trying to pre-empt Evatt’s lineups at the best of times, let alone for the first game of a new season. I think there are seven guaranteed starters - Baxter, Santos, Jones, Dacres-Cogley, Williams, Dempsey and Charles - beyond that it’s anyone’s guess. Maybe: ………..Baxter Jones-Santos...

Re: Snog, Marry, Avoid: Summer 2023 Transfer Window

CMG is an odd one for me in that he’s a very similar player to Dapo - a winger who plays best on the left, cutting inside onto his favoured right foot. I guess Evatt’s thinking he can play 10 and/or wingback more effectively than Dapo did.

The thoughts of other supporters should always be taken with a pinch of salt, but the Baggies on Twitter seem disappointed there's an agreement to make Ashworth's signing permanent. Also the thoughts here of a Burton Albion fan, where Ashworth was on loan in the second half of last season. https://...
