Quoted from Norseman
Think Emmanuel is just getting fit then off back up the league's to earn the big bucks .Let's just hope he performs well for us and wish him luck when he goes


What's to say we don't make him an offer he can't refuse?
On other threads posters moan because we haven't aimed high enough, offered the right money or countless other theoretical reasons as to why we can't sign quality players. Manny is here, knows what the club and area is like so why should it be unlikely that we can't sign him in the summer?

So you know the kind of figure he or his agent would want?

Unfortunately, unlike 25 years ago, we won't pay the best money even if we wants to stay in the area. Lincoln have replaced Scunthorpe in that respect. Whilst Scunthorpe's wages levels were never sustainable Lincoln's probably are.

For once our location might work in our favour as I assume he is based in the Hull area?

A player of his skill can be a match winner (as his was yesterday) and it's definitely worth a go at extending his contract.

Lincoln are paying what you have to if you want to remain a league 1 club.

Having not played for so long, his motivations might be slightly different. I'm sure we will make him a good offer if he proves his fitness and it would certainly be a statement of intent to start the summer.

I really hope we offer him a contract at the end of the season, but he is a classy League One player, and may be likely to get offers from clubs higher up the pyramid who can offer him more than we can, we will wait and see.
