13/10 Match Thread

[Chris FGR]

Some interesting games tomorrow night. I have a funny feeling kidderminster will pull off a result at altrinham. Bromley Cheltenham is one of the biggest games of the night, Bromleys home record is fantastic and I fully expect them to take something from the game.

As for us, Eastleigh away. I honestly don't know what to expect from Eastleigh, what does everyone else make of them so far? Constable is out, which will be a relief for our back four!

With it being a free gate, I hope they'll be 2000 plus.

Expect it to be a good game, we're playing well again and Eastleigh seem to be picking up under Chris Todd, having won at Wrexham and Tranmere. A scoring draw seems most likely I reckon, 2-2 or something like that. Constable being out is a plus, but we might be without Parkin which is just as big if not a bigger loss, plus Eastleigh have more then enough cover in forward areas.

All you need to do is win some corners and you've got a guaranteed goal. How's Josh O'Keefe doing? He'll definitely score if he plays

I've seen more of him bending over and stretching on the touchline than on the pitch so far this season. Saying that, I think there are a few injuries so he could actually start this evening. Not the most confident looking player.

Expecting Barrow to do a spot of bus-parking after their weekend mauling. Rovers will definitely be without the banned Maynard and injured Kiddy loanee Dawson and probably Mangan, Hogan and Ihiekwe too. Small squads have their downsides on days like this. Most likely outcome is a draw.

Barrow can't do bus parking - tried it against Forest Green and Grimsby and got taken apart. If we go 1-0 up, however, I'm sure we'll try and sit on it.
Very low on confidence after the weekend, and can see it being another mauling. Glad Dawson's not playing though, as we've had him before and he's great at this level.
Never know which Barrow will turn up (probably like a lot of sides this season), but I'm going for a late Tranmere winner.

Many thanks - Well I am glad that we are at home, however It wont be an easy one! If we can maintain some consistency and key players stay injury free then we stand a good chance, Hope you bring a good following

Think we will bring somehere between 75 and 100.

Looks like the majority on Wraggs to Ritches think the tie is already won! I think you will just have a bit too much for us. But it will defend if we can get our better players in to the game. ie Dan Bradley and Jordan Robertson (8 goals in 7 apps so far) John Johnstone is suspended for the tie. But would be available if a replay was needed. Which I am really hoping for.

I'm not confident with the players who are fit that we're capable of taking any side apart, while the defence looks brittle. If Barrow get a lead, the home crowd are inclined to get impatient and on the players' backs. An early Rovers goal could work wonders for us though.

Thinking about it, tonight would be such a typical Lincoln game to lose.

If we somehow take a third successive away win out of this trio of matches, then I'd say we're looking good to at least stay in touch throughout the winter months.

 

[Reginald Fodstain]

Can't make this one again, got a feeling it'll be a nil-nil for some reason. I have nothing else to add

 

[CTFCfan99]

Can see us losing at Bromley with the form they're on, I'd definitely take a point.

 

[Mark kavanagh]

I think we will scrape a win tonight even when we were down to 9 men on sat we looked confident, norwood and trialist h are proven goalscorers so 2-0 or 2-1 for me

 

[Pablosammy]

Hopefully, the loss on Saturday will fire up the lads for this one. I'm still angry about Eastleigh's tactics, and hopefully the players will be too. Let's punish Barrow to get it out of our systems (nothing personal, Barrow fans!).

However, I'm naturally pessimistic (being a Tranmere fan). I'll go for a 1-1 draw or narrow defeat... none of this bouncebackability lark.

 

[Eastleigh Fan]

aww did our lads rough up your little boys...?
Get over it mate, this is non league football.
Bleating like girls will not endear you to anyone, and others teams will now learn how to beat you.

 

[Vanni]

Where's CrazyImp?

You are neglecting your duties pal

 

[Mark kavanagh]

You get a history like ours playing good football, yes eastleigh may have beaten us on saturday by hoofing snd kicking everything that moves but they are a mid table conf side and always will be!!

Enjoy the biggest moment in your tiny clubs history mate if beating us is your highlight it shows the difference between the clubs.

You should have a look and learn off borehamwood, came to our place played great football, outclassed us , celebrated the victory but were humble later.

Every tranmere supporter likes and respects them despite being beaten by them, a really dignified club who deserve league status if they can achieve it....look and learn eastleigh fan

You can't have a work of art every week, the novelty would wear off.

 

[GodsGift]

Hearn in for the injured Stanley, which I'm guessing will see us return to 442.

Farman; Beevers, Howe, Waterfall, Bush; Muldoon, Wood, Power, Hawkridge; Hearn, Rhead

Thats Kind. More like a Mid Table Conf South/Isthmian League side. Thats like saying we are a Mid table Conference side. Which is just not true.

Yep, looks like it.

Probably the correct call - playing a full back and a second year pro in central midfield would have been a risk, and with Hearn available to come in in made even more sense.

This is non league, but everyone else so far has tried to play football. Horrible side, I hope you wither and disappear.
