Just back

Quoted from EY Mariner

Perhaps not but, if one chooses to be more positive about these things, we've only lost once and there is no way the likes of FGR are going to maintain this start. If we look at the whole picture, I think we would see that things are nowhere near as bad as some would like to portray.

We've done extremely well today, were by far the better side before the penalty, the better side in the second half and arguably deserved to win it. Town sides of not that long ago would have folded and got stuffed after having a man sent off in those circumstances. This team didn't and that says a lot for me. With the firepower we have, we will challenge. Patience is a virtue.

WHS, my flabber was absolutely gasted today at Disley`s performance, should have won MOM twice, we are going to start a winning run soon not to worry

Season is over!

I fear you may be right at best looking at the first 6 games a play off place would be an achievement  .............. But I think we should still be optimistic and it feels like the fans are determined to stay behind the lads.

Mind you that Robinson is so poor he shouldn't be anywhere near our team.

So, you're judging him on playing after one training session AND 30 minutes in another game? Very short sighted and I hope he makes you eat your words after a proper run in the side.

Quoted from chaos33

Hurst's decision won us a point, not points, and what else was he going to do other than leave 2 up front? I'm in no way slagging Hurst off because he does deserve recognition for the way the team played, but I've read several posts calling him brave and claiming a tactical masterstroke. We were a goal down FFS, what else was he gonna do?!

Well you may have a point but he could have played Bogle up front on his own and packed the midfield with them coming through for the lay offs. Thinking about it he could have played three at the back and pushed East into midfield as well..

Indeed-the 1800 or so who clapped and cheered the team off today didn't look as though they hadn't been entertained.
All I want from any GTFC team is to try to play the game as it should be played and commitment to the cause. This team have both in spades. Hurst deserves credit for making that happen.

Yep agreed. Nobody is saying that we've had a good start and we'd all rather be closer to FGR than we are. However, there is clearly potential for this side to do well and once our luck turns, I truly believe we'll be there or there abouts. As for the entertainment, the team gave their all and played the game in the right way. What more can you ask for in terms of entertainment from your own side?

Knowing Big Chris quite well I'd say there was more than a hint of irony in his well thought out incisive post...

Sarcasm is the lowest form of wit  
Actually, it's quite amusing to see BC's remark treated as though he actually meant it  

Rhead is a known wind up merchant (ie cheat), but without seeing it I don't know whether to be angry at Gowling for reacting or Rhead for going down like he'd been shot! I can't say for sure that he was overreacting, but Lincoln players congratulating him after the card came out suggests so. That incident aside, we were comfortably the better team and should still have won, 10 men or not. Disley was fantastic in the middle and Bogle's goal was the finish of a man who once a bit more polished, will play higher.

But my man (or child) of the day goes to the 7 stone Lincoln fan who got really angry at something or other, just after someone else had been kicked out. It was fucking hilarious. If only there was a vine of it!

Spot on chaos.

"Masterstroke" is just a fishy word for he could do intercourse all else.

How points over the seasons have Lincoln cheated us out of?
