    Crazy sacking Rowett, he has got them to 7th spending hardly anything. He will go on to bigger and better things.

    Yep to sack Rowett after the job he's done is ridiculous, especially as they sit 7th.
    Then they replace him with Zola; both absolutely crazy decisions.

    Crazy decision. Interested to see how that goes.

    Rowett won't be out of a job long.

    If we were to have taken a gamble on a young manager, I'd have been ok with Rowett.

    You wouldn't wish this on your worst football enemy. If Lowe did one good thing by rejecting SiSu's overtures then I think I might be able to forgive him. Poor old Coventry:

    I thought that was a ridiculous sacking. If Zola does better than Rowett I will be very surprised.

    Ohhhhhh Lincoln CIty, Na, na , na ,na , na........na, na,.na, na, na.

    Say we are top of the league, say we are top of the league.................

    But credit to the ex top of the league Tranmere Rovers. Their away support today was loud and probs about 1,200. Not too shabby in the fifth tier.

    Top by 2 with a game in hand now for the Imps and L1 crowds to match :)

    I have a soft spot for Lincoln as I had relatives who lived in Metheringham and visited them occasionally. Maybe things are looking up in Lincolnshire with Scunthorpe top in League 1. Can they keep ahead of the bigger teams like Sheffield United and Bolton?

    My Mum and Dad relocated from Winchester to Metheringham when they got married, before moving to Lincoln.

    Hope Scunthorpe do win that league. They could do with Lincoln crowds though. 6335 at Lincoln today, 4355 at Scunthorpe. Both top of their respective leagues.

    Lancaster City are also top of the Northern Premier League Division 1 North. Dunno if there's a song for that.

    And Real Mardid can look down on everyone again. While Manchester United think they are the greatest, Real Madrid are!!

    After the awful dive yesterday at Sincil Bank (that the idiot ref gave) someone on the Lincoln forum suggested that these players must practice diving in training to which another said ridiculous. Another posted up this video as a joke which I found hilarious. You may have seen it before but I hadn't:
