Pre-Match Thread Lincoln City FC vs Southend Utd 16th Aug 2019 15:00hrs

[Mr Browns Ghost]

Tough tough game this one ... real tough, what’s the news on keirnan ?? Also is ridgewell still training etc ??

Sorry been a few years since my last away match (play off semi against Burton I think). Can you pay on the gate at Lincoln in the away end or are simple things like this a thing of the past?

There are a couple of posters on here who would know and im sure will give details but might be worth ringing Lincoln themselves just to be safe.

At Cov the other week it was cash only on the day but numbers were not an issue. With the usual poor organisation and little thought about their customers. We had no warning signs or stewards to let people know, so many got right to the turnstile before having to find a rare and inconvenient local cash machine.

DANNY Cowley is excited to be facing Southend United in a competitive fixture for the first time tomorrow.

Southend 'are a club we are very respectful towards'.

Let's hope they ship three goals to us before half-time then.

 

[Mad Cyril]

Elvis is my favourite current player.

Genuinely can’t believe we never ever considered the Cowleys for the job. Couldn’t ignore the success they had at Braintree, let alone Concorde. You just have to see them in action to see their man management skills.

Bloody Spammers.

We did. They had to block Ron's number as he didn't stop calling them for most of January 2018.

He eventually gave up and went for CP because he wanted a new manager to have a little time in the transfer window.

Official site states tickets available on the day by card sales only and no cash. Normally it's the other way around.

They are just being polite about us. Why would they remotely consider taking a step backwards to manage Southend. Their next contract will be a life changer. Which of course they have earned by sticking with Lincoln.....So far.

We'll see how polite they are at 5pm tomorrow after we have just handed them their a s s. Smug ****s

 

[mattytheshrimper]

And Bishop to replace Oxley.....

Anyone to replace Oxley!!!!

I was thinking more when they were pulling up trees in the conference for Braintree and even before that when Lincoln took interest

Lincoln were a big club in the conference, so it was the right move for them. That has allowed them to develop and grow as they have produced the results.

When we finished 7th in L1, that wasn't good enough for many of our so called fans....Something the Cowelys rightly avoided to their professional advantage.

 

[Barling Magna]

Ethan Hamilton should go straight onto the teamsheet for tomorrow.

 

[Spaceman Spiff]

Ethan Hamilton has been added to the poll, so please do all go in and make any changes you feel are necessary - especially to the win / draw / lose section!

 

[Grapevine]

He won’t. You only have to look at how Layton Ndukwu has been used so far to know that.

Also, at the expense of who? Clearly not Milligan....and Bond has made it clear he rates Mantom.....and if we all want 442 how does he fit into that?
