State of that Lincoln attendance. Should all hang their heads in shame.

 

[Bobbin']

What does that even mean?!

I’m not talking about your fans being sat at home on a match day.

I meant generally, on a day-to-day basis moaning about modern football.

 

[The Jovial Forester]

That's a bigger crowd than this Swansea-Notts replay then

Riiiiiight

They're just supporting their local team and hoping they get to Wembley for the first time in history. Nothing more, nothing less.

 

[MrGloverLover]

Bloody hell. Zoko in the 90th minute to put us 3-2 up

That poor attendance is a more damning indictment of the modern game than Lincoln filling the ground for this game.

 

[MrGloverLover]

That's it, full time.Away to the Shrews for a place at Wembley against.....?

 

[GodsGift]

Should have won about 3-0. Now we'll go out on pens.

That would be a very Lincoln thing to do.

 

[GTFCfish]

Sky Sports News saying extra time to be played.

Straight to pens though isn't it?

 

[Laker]

Corrected for you.

 

[gijsbert_bos]

YEEEEESSSSSSSS!!!!!!!!!

WEMBERLEEEEEEEE

 

[PaulHaddock]

Scabs.

 

[GodsGift]

Get in. Off to Wembley for the first time in our history.

 

[gijsbert_bos]

Pitch invasion

 

[Laker]

That pitch invasion deserves to be in the tinpot thread.

 

[kieran_vale]

A pitch invasion for this joke of a competition. Really??

 

[Aaron-Bcfc]

Pitch invasion for reaching the final of a tournament threatening to kill English football. Good one, lads.

l don't expect to see any Lincoln fans crying when that Chelsea u23 side ends up in their league.

 

[Guernica]

Flying the flag for ALL football league clubs.

You're more than welcome.

No you’re not.

 

[gijsbert_bos]

The seethe in here is hilarious.

 

[Luke_ciderhead]

The state of this competition. What on Earth was going on with the penalty shootout? Twice in a row? Never seen that before.

 

[Guernica]

Yes we are, we're the David fighting against the elitist, Premier League Goliath. Showing the small, modest man what can be done with a bit of grit, a smidgen of desire and a handful of PASHUN.

Looking forward to seeing the Cowley brothers in their dapping suits, leading out their small battalion in the greatest football stadium in the land.

Trailblazers

ABBA system, supposed to be fairer.

 

[Chris FGR]

YEEEEESSSSSSSS!!!!!!!!!

WEMBERLEEEEEEEE

I hope it rains. Heavily.

 

[Richard Cranium]

Surprised your phone hasn’t died yet Gjsberg with all the posting you’ve done at the match.

 

[AdamStag]

Lincolns non-existent creditably suffers further.

I'm so pleased that their first game in this tournament was a 3-1 win over a Mansfield reserve side and the 900 or so had a great night out in the lights of Nottinghamshire and have gone on so much from that.

 

[The Jovial Forester]

It's no Simod Cup, let's be honest. "Running round Wembley with fuck all, you were..."

Cheers, much appreciated.
