Anyway I'm not posting on Father Jack's lame 2 match merged thread anymore. Carry on without me if you like which you will.

See you on the main thread if one appears.

Not particularly looking forward to Saturday, the great British rail network coupled with the friendly local police force means I'll be getting an 8am train hungover to fuck. I feel like I'm off to watch the ugly kid at school smash my ex girlfriend in front of me.

That said, the ugly kid hasn't blossomed quite as much as he believes he has, despite telling the world about his raging 6 pack, we all know he spent £500k on it.

Nice to see that Lincoln will be bringing a crowd though, gone are the days when you didn't come due to 'too much dog shit on the pavements'. I guess when you're rolling in on a bandwagon, stepping on dog shit shouldn't be an issue.

Never been so uninterested in a derby game in my life. At least the players who clearly don't give a shit will be well and truly found out. We'll lose by at least 3 and Fenty will be under the most pressure he's probably ever been in during his reign. You feel it's only a matter of time but then you remember he's as stubborn as you can get.

Oh, we all thought this thread was a complete failure, but Black Haddock has only gone and solved the Impish problem. Just make all of the threads on the entire forum double match threads and we'll never have to put up with him again!

Think the only positive we have going into this is that Lincoln's defence hasn't been particularly solid (though still much better than ours). Hoping that last night Slade was just resting Matt and Jones because there's no point in turning up if Hooper and Vernon are starting. I will also be pretty peeved if DJ isn't starting, preferably in place of Woolford, as even though Dembele has been off it recently, he still causes the opposition problems.

We're showing the game on a big screen at our ground now!
hmm...
A BIG SCREEN?! When you lot were shit you claimed it wasn't a derby, now you're putting up screens!

I've heard rumours that Stagecoach cleaned their open top bus in Lincoln this morning just in case.

These threads turn into absolutely car crashes, don't they? Kids all over the place with petty point scoring and ridicule.

Weirdly, we actually feel quite solid to me over the first 10 games.

Without going all 'if my aunt had balls', take the anomaly of County game out we've only conceded 8 in 9. Mind you, take the Carlisle anomaly game out and we've only scored 9 in 9.

We've got more problems converting the chances we create. Last night was a perfect example.

Tenner a go n all!
I still can't get over that, honestly I've been laughing about it all day.

After all these years of us not being rivals, a big screen :fl:

Yet you got around 3300 home fans last night but are expecting at least double that for your cup final!?
If you really think there will be 6600+ Grimsby fans there then you are living in cloud cuckoo land.

Not sure where that's come from but I'd be surprised if we got more than 5500. Expecting to just break 5000 imo.

The thing with the big screen and only opening 1 stand is there will be loads of empty seats and little or no atmosphere, or to put it in other words it will be like a typical Lincoln home match from 1 year ago.

Carl Boyeson is ref on Saturday, I'm dumbfounded how a guy with his track record can be allowed to ref a derby game.

It was only right, given that we put big screens up last season for those big derby games against Burnley, Arsenal, Macclesfield, Brighton etc...

They were huge games, this is a game you regularly fetched terrible crowds to and told us you didn't care about when your arse was handed to you every Christmas.

This way the Lincoln fans can watch the game without having to brave all that dog shit.







They just have to brave the dog shit in the streets around Sincil Bank instead.

We had Trevor Kettle for our game on Tuesday and feared the worst after recent games but he had a very good game.
Don't worry he'll send a couple of ours off, you'll be fine.
Big, physical, dirty Lincoln...
