We need to get Fats back, no? Hold on. What we actually need is a @LincolnSaint thread! That's what will save us. Your time is now, sir.
9 years ago today we won promotion back to the PL. Seems both a long time ago and as though the time has flown by!
I'll put something small up at about 11 if no-one else has claimed the prize of a 9-0 victory at home on their 'Thread CV'
Who did the one for the last Friday night home game against Leicester? Maybe they should be doing this one to get some sort of closure, unless it goes really badly again of course
Sorry if already mentioned, but JWP is doing a piece about free kicks on Virgin tv (?) with Ralph to encourage children into being more active.
I have only ever done 2 match threads, that being my second and ended on that night. I took early retirement. Saints have held on to leads for longer than my success with match threads.
Real shame but no surprise. If he is forced to retire from playing I hope we help him get his badges and give him an opportunity to coach - if he wants to of course.
I feel for the lad, all his dreams crushed just as he is starting out, I hope he has the financial and emotional support to carry on and have a career elsewhere.
Might be a strange thing to say, but he was very lucky he signed a lucrative, long-term contract on presumably good money not long before this happened. Financially, he should be ok as a result of that ... but emotionally? I couldn't begin to imagine the toll that would take on you. It sounds like the club has been supporting him pretty well (including him in their covid bubble, for example, just to keep him involved)
