I'd be happy if we both go up. Having said that as long as we go up I couldn't care less where they finish.

Agree and the Scunts stay in L1 with Donny, That will create a lot of interest with 3 local derby's. |

Expectations from their fans will be 'sky-high', to say the least. With cash resources most teams at this level can only dream about, and a managerial pair who obviously have their feet firmly on the ground, I would expect them to be in the top 7 or thereabouts. But as we know, soccer is a funny old game, and fans are fickle should performances 'sag'. In this respect, It is possible that some of their players, having expended so much effort in their cup and league efforts, will simply crash and burn this season as some at Leicester did in 2016-2017. Should Raggett leave, much of their aerial threat at corners may depart too. Also, with retrospective penalties for simulation being imposed next season, Rhead could be in for a turbulent year. Interesting times at Sincil bank nevertheless.
I don't think that will be the primary worry for the Cowleys if or more likely when Ragget leaves, I think they would be much more worried about solidifying their defence rather than scoring the odd one or two from corners Herts.. Admire your attacking instincts though. Agree, expect to see these words and phrases appear on Sky Sports News regularly next season.. |

Well done Lincoln City. 5,000 season tickets is brilliant. I wish we had that.

Most of the 5,000 are fair weather fans, where have they been for the last 50 years ?
Half of them will not even turn up if Lincoln are playing shite and losing most games.
It matters not Pete the moneys in the bank, anyway if you have forked out for a season ticket the majority will go to matches whatever the results. Fortress bank eh! looking forward to playing there if they will allow us some seats  |

We've never played in the "Championship" though. Before big money took over we had plenty of experience in the same dividsion when it was called Division Two, and actually meant what it said. |

Credit to Lincoln and I say that through gritted teeth, they had an amazing season last season and even though I hate the majority of their Bellringing, teeth missing, gurning fans, the club has captured the imagination of those half wits and made a packet on season tickets.
Just imagine if Town captured our imagination in the same way the gimps have done theirs.

Not easy when you have been up there for a considerable amount of time in the past as apposed to the excitement of being a wannerbee  |

I think they will do well if they can keep the management for the full season. The brothers will be on their way, one way or another, within 12 months. If they can't cut it then they will get the push, if they get results then I bet some clubs have already tapped them up.
Promoted clubs sometimes do get the adrenalin rush and keep up the momentum. Lincoln probably will. They remind me of Cambridge a few years ago with the same very simple physical style, a bit of the old Wimbledon attitude as well. They may well be successful but they will find that there are not as many easy games in L2 and the brothers have to keep getting the maximum out of limited players.
