    Up to now they’ve not done enough with the opportunities. But neither have we with ours. They’re a very direct team and Bailey Wright is poor. Looks worse than Flanagan IMO. (And I don’t rate Flanagan)

    the back 4 scares me!! Luckily we gave a decent keeper

    Think Scowen has been our best outfield player. But not by much

    Blimey, out of jail in that half.

    Surely in these games the one thing you need is desire and intensity. It can mask a lot of failings. We need that second half or we could still be a couple down after this.

    I hope the last 10 or so dont mask what what went before. I would change it up. Swap power and O'Nien around. Get Leadbitter on in a three with scowen and onien. I know many dont rate Leadbitter but he is our one player clever enough to dictate the pace of the game, and we could do with that leadership now.

    Tyat save which was given as a goal kick was an absolute worldy mind. If it’d been the young lad at the other end they’d probably be wiping cum off their seats!!

    This God awful commentator keeps going on how young Lincoln are and how they have come up from lower leagues...ie we are old and from the Premier....

    Leadbitter protection in front of those centre half’s is needed ASAP, he also calms things down

    I think we can all see why Rangers allowed Jones to come to us now and have made him available to leave permanently.
    One week hes a world beater, the next week he's bang average

    They have been blowing smoke up his arse all game. Commentators literally willing us to fail, same every week we are on tv to be honest. Tossers!

    cheers again RTB...

    well, we really need more quality in that final third, only gooch's shot gave them any real worries...lots of huffing and puffing in the middle as well, need someone to take a bit of control in there, too eager to 'get rid'.

    again though we are relying mainly on wyke and he is being well marshalled, might help if he jumper more rather than looking for a foul almost every time.

    Too many 'next week' performances, Stewart would cause them more problems and is more direct tbh.

    Mainly bang average, goes to ground too easily for me as well.

    I think Lincoln have done their homework personally, they know he is a pace merchant, and therefore dropping deep on him and doubling up, has made a couple of good runs but no ones passed on those occasions sadly
