I realise some of you may have zero interest in this which is fair enough but from time to time I like to have a snoop on OppositionWays out of curiosity. Thought it was worth compiling some together which I'll do in this thread whenever I get chance. 

Seems like Lincoln have some pretty level headed fans but then one or two absolutely bitter fuckers. 

Pick of the bunch includes:

THE BITTER

Quote

How about 10 points deducted for every £million of debt a club has?
Wonder just how low these perennial cheats would drop?

Quote

Red Wimp said:

Bolton stayed in Lincoln last night. Not leaving much to chance.

No that was so they could rack up extra debt.

Quote

Surely we can't lose to these cheats?
Why are they not on multiple minus points?

Quote

I'd rather be us than them. How long do they have to pay their debt?

Quote

The simple truth is, as much as the away fans won't want to admit it, we lost to one of those vile clubs tonight. One of those that has spent beyond their means, and clearly continues to do so.

 

THE PRAISE

Quote

Good game. Shit result.
By the standards of last season Bolton should be pushing for promotion. But then that was last season.

Quote

Beaten by the better team. Good to see a big away following.

Quote

FT. Good game. Credit to Bolton - they did enough to control the game throughout, although we had some bright moments, especially in the first half. They also scored at exactly the right time and managed the game out. 

Quote

Bolton also look like a really good side who should be in the top half of the table.

Quote

I have backed Bolton to win the league as I think they are a decent team. They looked like a very settled team that are used to winning.

Good to see Xavier Amaechi still being shit.

I had no idea he played for them

They are deluded muppets. How can they think that was a close contest. Really odd read but hahaha

Having not watched the game it is always hard to know exactly how it went. Reading our post game comments will always lean towards the positive (or negative when we lose) so I do like seeing what the opposition fans think to get a bit of balance. Thanks @matty2094 for all you efforts!!*

However that lot seem way more bipolar than most. We were either shit or excellent. Offered nothing or exploited all their weaknesses. Created nothing, but scored two. 

It is probably because I have no frame of reference,  but I am more confused after reading  that than I was after reading ours! 🤣

 

* although please include please include some more of ws53s arse kissing posts if he still does that thing.

Just a heads up that I'll be away for Blackpool away, Wimbledon at home (might be international weekend) and Leyton Orient away. 

I know @Mantra has done a few in the past - don't fancy picking up those 3 do you?

My neighbour, who spent many years in Cornwall, reckoned they don't have much, if any, of a market in the area.

There’s a local bakery that turns up at all the home games and sells from the van, isn’t there?

He was doing a roaring trade over the road from the pub that we went to.

That would be Ivor Dewdney. Particularly dockyard take on a pasty and poor ingredients but soaks up prematch ale or cider well.

Our pasty shop across from Burnden Park was good; really cheap pies and soaked up the ale well.

A certain hillbilly, who cannot be named for legal reasons, tried to eat a frozen one before a game as we told him they only had cold ones left 😄

That's the sane as lancashire hotpot.

Saw a chef/baker type making one on TV.

Uses both leeks and onions, and swede.

Also minced and cubed meat.

I made one, and it was rather good.

When did turnips become swedes? Years' ago you hollowed a turnip at Halloween, it wasn't ever called a swede

They didn’t. Separate vegetables. Carrots and turnips with a roast dinner are excellent. Carrots and swedes aren’t!

Boo. Mash the lot of them together.

Anyway, I'm sure I read somewhere, something about swedes being used rather than pumpkins for the celebrations.

Not going this year - the tiny, cramped, crappy plastic seats did my back in last year.
Good luck to the travelling fans and give 'em hell. About time we beat this bigbillybollocks toughshit team.

Imp13 said:

Not enormously hopeful, I’m sure there will be a stat that we haven’t won at Bolton since the 80s.

February 1984 to be exact. At Burnden Park in them days of course.

Quote

Big test for the full backs today if Wednesday against Reading was anything to go by. Certainly can't afford for empty the midfield like we did for Plymouth's first on Saturday either.

Quote

Could have done with the LB in for today, especially with the pace notlob have out on the wings.

Cant see anything other than a home win unfortunately, for that to change we will have to play a hell of a lot bettter than the last hour at Sixfields.

Quote

Expecting a long diagonal day, don't think we'll have enough of the ball to mount any sustained attacks. Think the ball boy behind our goal will get more touches of the ball than James Collins.

Watched them against Reading the other night and they are very strong in midfield, not really what we wanted to hear and Erhahon played as central conducter in there and with the players we have available in our midfield it will be a very challenging day.

Could be attack versus defence from the start if we summise we will set out not to lose rather than try to get some sort of result.

Quote

Still some optimism, we have to win there eventually.

Quote

I seem to recall its a big pitch so there might be space out wide for Street and Reeco to run into. I think we will see lots of diagonals therefore, and plenty of long ball to start the game with until we settle into it.

As long as we can stay at 0-0 (and 11 men) until 30 minutes in, then we might get something.

Quote

We never win at Bolton do we? I’ll be there, hopeful we can nick a point.

Quote

Looks like an attempt to completely park the bus until 60/70 mins then nick something at a set piece.

Could be a long afternoon if they score early.

Quote

Backs to the wall, then. Ninety minutes of that will be a hard watch.

Quote

That’s a 0-0 starting 11 if ever I’ve seen one. No chance we scrape a win with that… he says on the way to Bolton .

1-0

Quote

Tough period. Bolton look sharp.

Quote

Should have had money on Ethan gett8ng the first booking!

Quote

Sisocko looks really dangerous

Quote

Two clear fouls there on our players in that attack...

Quote

Good first half scoreline. We'll need a second as I'm sure the second half will be tough

Quote

What are those entitled pricks booing the referee for?

Quote

Great first half. Draper took his chance and we remained utterly focused for the rest of it. Bolton have tons of quality but we’ve met that challenge. Need to be absolutely committed for the second half and take our chances that will come. May also require the coaching staff to be quite astute and tactical as well.

Quote

Loving the boos at half time. Keep the billybigbollockstoughshitters on their arses.
Come on u Imps.

Quote

Touches in the opposition box, Bolton 10, Lincoln 16.

Quote

Not a good day for EE, we love to see it.

Hopefully can complete the lot and grab the win.

Quote

Not something you ever see given anymore. Bellend, referee.

Quote

Offside? Handball? If it was the latter, book the cheat.

Merthyr Imp said:

So we've not been told what Towler was booked for.

Literally nothing. Poor refereeing.

Quote

It’s relentless pressure from Bolton. We’re hanging on in there. Wickens and Hamer have been outstanding.

Quote

Their supporters are seriously entitled.

Jules said:

They've got to expect their Giants to beat little old Lincoln.

Quote

Referee has turned into a total bellend the last ten minutes. Another foul and then they get it for handball.

Quote

Cheating, overspending bastards. Should have been put out of business, not saved by the government.

Shouldn't have said anything

Bugger bugger bugger...

Oh well. Can't say it wasn't coming.

That was indeed a VERY long seven minutes...

Pissed off with that. Hate the vile scum.

Quote

Disappointing end but we would have took 1-1 at the start

Quote

FT. Sick, sick, sick . We played (defended) absolutely magnificently. Bolton came at us, and came at us but somehow we managed to keep them at bay. Ironic that the winning goal came from one of the very few breaks into their half. Feel sorry for Hamer, and the team for the way they conceded. The ref gave a couple of FKs which could have gone to us. George Wickens MoM for the second game running - that was very nearly a 10 performance. Really unlucky Imps - Bolton possibly deserved a point (at least) but they couldn’t put the ball in the net - actually they didn’t - we scored both goals.

Quote

Jules said:

The level of entitlement...
 

Take out the word ‘comfortably’ and I don’t think he’s too wrong.

Bolton are targeting automatic promotion and to do that you’ve got to beat the play off chasers like us and the midtablers like Reading. Both Wrexham and Birmingham did the double on us last season.

From what I can see on their forum - they seem to be saying that we were probably the better team, and that the ref is various parts of the male anatomy.

Other than that, they had almost 20,000 there today, have spent big in the summer, and have been in the premiership this century - of course they’re going to think they’re entitled to a win. We just have to rise above that, acknowledge only the 25 people on the pitch matter for 90 mins. And today those people were equal.

Quote

One other thing - what a brilliant advert for L1 football, especially the first half 

Quote

That is what makes today’s result excellent playing against “giants and world famous” famous Bolton who can afford to sign our strongest player (we considered) and hardly play him and take him off at half time was a fantastic result
