    ... games, results and positions.

    Good result tonight imo, both teams drop 2 points and draws are always my default at this stage of the season.

    We can't know which of these two might pose the biggest threat so I'll happily take this.

    Rotherham are closest to us, 5 points behind having played a game more.

    TUE 14th SEPT

    Lincoln City 1-1 Rotherham United

    Very happy with that draw. We've had too many over the last few years. Somebody else's turn for the old 1-1 draw now.

    Both behind us, both from 2 points. Better than one of them getting closer to us with 3 points

    Top of the league and we’ve played a game less than 10 teams! The draw last night was a great result for us.

    Rotherham always do well in this league but don’t look great this year.

    Still Wednesday to beat for me they sat way down but the game in hand brings them right back up if they win it.

    I think Accrington will stick around from what we seen at weekend, decent side.

    Rotherham have been a yo yo club for a whole now, but sooner or later they won't bounce back straight away, and this might be the time they don't. To be honest, when they went up last time, the wheels were starting to come off and I don't think they'd have made it if the season wasn't curtailed.

    Wednesday should be there, but you never know if stuff going on behind the scenes is going to affect them.

    Accrington will do what they've done in the last couple of seasons, be up there in and about for a bit, but fall away later on. They were up alongside us in early-mid February before falling back and I think the same will happen this year.

    Ipswich should improve, but probably need to do so pretty quickly, or they'll wind up in the same boat we've been in since we came down and not have a lot of wiggle room if they suffer a bad run.

    Wigan will probably be up there most of the season, but it remains to be seen if they have enough quality to cope with the amount of games.

    Wycombe I think flatter to deceive. The football they play will grind out results especially at home, but I don't think there's enough genuine quality to separate them from the pack. That'll be a big factor in tight games or if they have a poor run of form.
