Just a few hours until our next match so here is a thread to comment on. After the excitement of saturday's second half, I guess we are all hoping for more of the same - a tactical battle in the first half followed by us unleashing the youth upon the Imps and three points coming back to the Valley. I imagine Lincoln will have something to say about that - like ourselves they have changed manager since the season kicked off, and they are a team who rarely lose at home, but we do need to start clocking up away wins if we want to keep pushing for a play-off spot, so hopefully we will arrive with our A game.
It'll be nice to get something as Saturday will be difficult. One point from the next two games would see us drop a couple of places. The Imp hopes The Imps splutter tonight.
An away win would convince me that the playoffs are distinctly possible, after all those home games. We'll see. Tyreece Campbell is improving in leaps and bounds- his goal and assist on Saturday were real quality, and he's booked a starting place tonight. Assimwe offers so much more to the team than T Watson, and it's a matter of time until he starts regularly at RB. Fraser or L Watson is a tough call, and C Campbell will be back on the bench. I was going to watch this one, but will be watching The Great Escaper instead.
1-0 Alfie May again. That guy is turning into a goal machine with us. Shout out for a lovely bit of football from Tyreece Cambell about five minutes before to set CBT away,
Pretty one sided game in the end. Frankly, we missed Anike. Leaburn and Tyreece Cambell seem much better as impact subs, and yesterday they didn't do much after the bright opening. Then again, neither did anyone else. It was a terrible flat performance Turn the page and move non, but we needbto do better away, and Lincoln had a few strikers missing, so it feels like a missed opportunity.
We are full of impact subs. Totally outplayed all over the pitch. They doubled up or tripled up on CBT and that was basically it. We had nothing else. This team needs lots of money spent on it if we want to get anywhere near promotion, and let’s be honest, that’s not going to happen is it.
Sounds like Lincoln did their homework on us. CBT was man of the match against Reading. Our short unbeaten run won't be returning if other teams have also worked us out. Bolton next in the League. A stern test.
