Just seems that other teams and managers are far more street wise than us , and have been for several years . If you can't beat them join them ,  whether we like it or not .  Gaining an advantage by cheating seems very acceptable in this division.

I don't care, never want to see a team I support resort to cheating as a tactic. Maybe being a bit cleverer and professional, for example wasting a bit of time if we are in a winning positions, preventing free kicks being taken quickly, but not diving or trying to get someone sent off by faining injury. Unacceptable.

Well said oldun

If we are to go up then I want us to be remembered for being the team that deserved it on merit for football...not some devious bunch of opportunists taking professionalism to its limits à la Crawley, Fleetwood etc

Appologies for poor spelling or grammar i'm using my tablet and it doesn't do as its told sometimes.

ust back to my hotel and if only we had 11 men we would of hammered Lincoln the way we were playing. Could easily of scored 2 or 3 before the penno but for a mix of poor finishing and some great goalkeeping.

Didn't see Rheads dive im calling it that till I see otherwise having read a few things and from his simulation leading to the dive. If Macca had gone the right way he would of saved it but thats football.

They could of finished us off a couple of times when they caught us on the break but didn't.

Can't believe the way we played though especially down to 10 men we could of won it with some better finishing again. Bogles goal was fantastic the lead up from Robertson chipping their right back to Bogles control on his chest and hit on the volley. If only Disley had gotten propper contact on his effort he would of won it for us.

To come back from behind twice is impressive we wouldn't of done that last season, our luck has to turn soon but the point gap is getting worrying aleready.


I don't mind Roy Keane making £60,000 a week. I was making the same when I was playing. The only difference was I was printing my own - Mickey Thomas

The area you are trying to protect at corners is the goal - Chris Kamara

I once said Gazza's IQ was less than his shirt number and he asked me: What's an IQ? - George Best

Thought we were brilliant today, joke sending off!! Great brave tactic from Hurst to leave two up top and we battered them with 10 men. Have to laugh at the losers who have sat at home and slagged off a really gutsy performance, we have a team that is entertaining and well worth watching, some folk should give it a go 😉

A good point gained again. Sending off pivotal and it would have been a different story with 11 vs 11. Gowling should not have been drawn into that and he knows it but luckily for him we stepped it up and got a point from a really poor Lincoln side.

No poor performances from any of our players today and a really well taken goal from injury prone Bogle.

A message to Town fans: Pantomime villain type players thrive off abuse - even if they have the mobility of an anvil.

Come on, we must surely be happier than our beloved rivals, we don't have to resort to near enough cheating and can still outplay them with 10 men! This town knows?

I have heard it all now.

Talk about clutching at straws.

I must say some "losers" on here are either deluded or have a very boring life to say being tenth in non league is entertaining.

Good character and I think we deserved to win ultimately. Should have been about 3 up before the penalty. Didn't see the incident but did hear Rhead on the radio, what a cheating girl private. Gowling shouldn't have got involved and he knows it but I'd rather stay in this league forever than have someone like Rhead play for us. Lincoln are just all round a shite club. Shite fans, shite players, shite tactics and incredibly shite "display" at the start of the game. I'd rather take out my own eyes than be involved with them.

Some very good individual performances today particularly from Arnold and Toto when he came on. But Disley was MOTM, that was a captain's performance if ever I've seen one. Anyone who questions why he is played every week should have seen him today. Great goal from Bogle but he needs to learn that he has team mates and to release them rather than shooting from crazy positions.

Brave and correct decision from Hurst to leave 2 up top but I think he should have introduced Pittman much, much earlier. So a point won in circumstances where we were unfortunate and had it stayed eleven versus eleven we would have comfortably beaten them as they offered nothing other than that penalty, despite us having ten men for most the game.

It is worrying that we're 9 points off but our luck will turn and we'll go on a run sooner rather than later.
