I don't give a toss for Lincoln City or anything associated with them.
I also don't care for anyone on their forum either, they really think that they are of superior intelligence and we are all brain dead.
What a bunch of idiots they really are.
If you really want a chuckle then read the posts of "scotimp" on their forum. Blimey does he think he's something special.
First class idiot.
Oh, and if he wants to check my spelling and granmmar then he's quite welcome to do so. (he likes to do that you know, being all superior to every one else).

I did have a chuckle after one of their posters called "The electric banana" was saying how thick we all are then promptly went on to misspell vocabulary and their. Their FFS; a five letter word. I'm glad irony is alive and well in Lincoln.

I've had it years...hard to shift...

As for Moyses, he is an amateur that got his job because he essentially bought it. Obviously Hearn wasn't happy, may be he could've gone about it differently but it's happened now. Interestingly, Hearn hints at a different story to what the guy in the Echo is suggesting.

Quoted from grimsby pete
This reminds of Gordon Hobson remember him ?

He packed his bags and said he was off to Southampton,

Even though he was under contract .


I'll always remember Gordon Hobson putting in a man of the match performance in probably his last game for Town against Norwich City, scoring the only goal, when Norwich were already promoted to the top division.  
Also, didn't we sign Jack Lewis from Lincoln for about £3000 quid.
And didn't we sign Matt Bloomer from Lincoln on a Saturday morning before a 2-1 defeat against Carlisle United, when their Spanish left full back Aralnade scored twice, and later on and ultimately we didn't get promoted with a minute to spare, courtesy of Northampton? See you Russell.

Yes that's right, we did sign Bloomer just before the Carlisle game. It was 2 days after that famous Wrexham victory, when 73 of our side finished the game injured.

Oh, and Tom Newey missed a penalty when we were 2-1 down.

(The Northampton goal was irrelevant though, I know Northampton fans like to take credit for stopping our promotion but they're wrong!)

Quoted from Grantham_Mariner
Grimsbyitis - That will be the excuse for not bringing many at Xmas to BP.


I looked this term up in the dictionary and found the following descriptions.......

Grimsbyitis - Paranoia that your local competitor has more class a better standard of workmanship amongst it's employees who by the way like the tools of their trade to observe the laws of gravity and stay on the ground.

Grimsbyitis - A condition which effects but is not exclusive to prima donna footballers who lack the necessary professionalism to return to their former place of employment and  in front of thousands of die hard's who adored them ply the trade that they get reasonably rewarded for.

Grimsbyitis - A condition that could possibly lead to you being vocally ridiculed by thousands of devote genuine followers during the season of good will when the black and white forces of good will triumph over the red and white geographical neighbours who marry their sisters by all being well 5 - 0 at the Mecca that is known as Blundell Park.

Your choice and time will tell which one is true...................... I'd personally like to think they all are TBH.

You're right Pete. I remember at the time, being angry and upset and thinking...'Hang on a minute....'?!?!

Haha really got the wood on him if he's so paranoid he's created a medical condition about us the guy must be losing his marbles.  Hobson scored some cracking goals whilst here he really was quality shame he left so quickly.
