It looked a good afternoon/night out although the pavement tables probably don’t seem as attractive in December as they had done in August last year. We were having a few drinks and meal around the marina last year before the game - very civilised

December 30, 20223 yr Just seen the table, despite being 5th, closer in terms of points to relegation than promotion.

December 30, 20223 yr Was really nice around the marina last season but there are one or two near the ground that seem a bit ropey. There are a couple of micro pubs perfectly placed, but I expect they’ll be listening out for local accents, and who the fuck knows what one of those sounds like?!
December 30, 20223 yr Lincoln is a nice place and the locals are a friendly bunch. Everyone we spoke to last night didn’t even know there was a match on tomorrow!!!!! Yes the ground is in the rough part of town and yes there was a punch or two thrown last season and there were the issues @ The Anchor a couple of years before. But i seriously would not be concerned at all in Lincoln.

December 30, 20223 yr Wife and I staying at doubletree Hilton on the marina along with the Bolton team Also, for the beer aficionados, just after the change from A1 to A57 there is a small brewery called Pheasants Brewery or something. They're doing a deal of 24 bottles for... Well, I was going too fast to read it all but it looked a though it was a sale

December 30, 20223 yr Fucking hell, they weren’t kidding when they christened the walk up to the cathedral as ‘Steep Hill’

At Christmas I used to get my pork pie from a butcher in the old square and when it snows you’d believe you were in a Dickens novel with the cobbled streets and little old shops. I loved living there Lincoln’s great.

December 30, 20223 yr Hi guys, my first post here so here goes. I'll jump straight to the matter at hand. I felt that we played too much long ball against Derby and we seem to have lost that edge, that beautiful passing football that we came to love last season seems to have evaporated. It's become a bit of nice play followed by lots of rushing about and aimless kicking forward. Charles is a huge frustration for me, and not just his missing of chances. He chases and chases but it's no good if he can't control the ball or turns into a man whenever he has it. He always ends up battling for possession that he already had, flailing his arms, invariably ending up on the floor. Does anyone else see this? As for our best eleven, it's really hard to pick. What are your thoughts folks? Edited December 30, 20223 yr by Jayjay23
December 30, 20223 yr Think you need to give Derby some credit for that. They closed us down quickly and made it difficult. Like Sheffield Wednesday did. Don't agree re Charles. He's scored a few recently and wasn't the only one to miss the target. Aimson put his header wide, and Bradley had a couple of sights of goal. Dapo was barely involved and I felt Charles and the other sub strikers posed more of a threat. I don't think we're quite good enough yet for the very top, but we're doing OK
