    What an effort from the lads. They did not give up!

    90+ minutes with 10 men on the pitch and getting the win is a very good result, irrespective of the fact that Swansea were really not very good.

    I still think he was very naive, particularly after what Ralph said after Salisu's sending off. But the win makes it easier to forgive him!

    I don't particularly hold him responsible for today but think he's had enough chances. He's third choice for any position right now so if he wants to play regularly and push on then he needs a new club.

    I think conventional right back is just not his position. He did really well against Spurs

    In all seriousness, that was a painful watch. Some of our decision making was horrid (and sorry, I know they both scored, but Lucy and Longy really can be pretty bad at football sometimes. Armstrong just wasn't there).

    Diallo I thought was very good when he came on, and JWP was a warrior.

    That's all I have. I'm now going to eat some soft foods from a blender and change my plastic bedsheets.

    Why do we never, ever do things the easy way? Jeeeeezus. Imagine winning a game by more than one goal. No RB for Tuesday then! Super.

    I enjoyed that, though I've done a tour of Flanders during that 120 mins... Feels like Ralph has got a bit different mentality now.. last two games have been a bit different..

    Shane Long gets us into the 4th round

    Humble pie on the menu for the Shane doubters?

    This is a win-win for Lincoln: Saints win, but Ralph could have done things better - What's not to like?

    Made hard work of that. We played pretty poor in parts but credit for battling when down to 10 men and getting a result

    Naive in the extreme, simply by giving the ref the opportunity to issue the second card.
    After his first card I said to my son that he might get another through a poor decision.
    Obafemi is a “client” of Genting casino. I have suggested that the next time he gives his Coutts bank card to my son, that he tells him it has been declined.

    Not sure what more Ralph could have done, really.

    #I Have a Dream, a song to sing
    To help me cope, with anything
    If you see the wonder, of a fairy tale
    You can take the future, even if you fail

    I believe in Shaney
    Something good in everything I see
    I believe in Shaney
    When I know the time is right for me
    I'll cross the stream, I Have a Dream#
