Fair one. There’s doing it for a few months in the same division and there’s being a clear fourth in a league with part-timers though isn’t there? They’re lucky to be in the Lincs Senior Cup any more!


Thankfully just the one season as you say but how frustrating. Scunny went up. Lincoln failed in the playoffs and we finished two places behind Boston in eighteenth!

This was my first full season back up north and my first Town season ticket. We played six Lincolnshire derbies and didn't win one. I think that stuck in my craw more than anything else.

I think Scunny are down there for the long haul now. I'm glad they are still about but pleased we are enjoying a run of seasons above them at long last.

It's quite ironic we have 450 pages on Scunthorpe United, apparently revelling in their demise, whereas if we were in the same division (preferably in the football league) we would have no pages, but 2 mouthwatering local derbies to look forward to, so they need to pull their socks up  , because for one I know what I'd prefer.

Imagine being the fourth club in Lincolnshire 💀


Stamford will be looking at winning promotion next season, to potentially make it the 5th...

They might actually have an easier second season, a little bit less expectation from their own and less " it's their cup final"  for the opposition might actually benefit them They should still have the biggest budget I would have thought to attract the better player fir that level as well.

I watched alot of the iron army vlogs last season and the variation in hope,expectation was massive...very amusing journey. 😄

We were in 2004-05



By a goal difference of 5, hardly a division apart is it.

I never said it was. We still finished fourth out of the Lincolnshire league clubs though. Just setting the record straight.

They will be playing the Mariners at least 4 times next season, as South Shields are also the Mariners.

Never quite realised how tight the middle of League Two was that season.  Two points separating us finishing in 18th and Bristol Rovers who finished in 12th.  

That whole season was just like waiting for it to all click, but with the exception of the early 5-1 win over Bury it just didn't happen.  Should have known on the opening day when we absolutely battered Darlington at their place yet still came away with a 1-0 defeat.   The next game, against Boston actually, was a similar tale.  So many efforts on their goal yet only a 1-1 scoreline.  Nathan Abbey had the game of his life before Michael Reddy came off the bench to grab the equaliser, even that proved a false dawn as he struggled to really get going all season.

Still, it all came together the next season.....Oh.
