Jeez Les, how dare you apply a bit of common sense and go against the Fishy grain of Lincoln being a team massively on the up and GTFC certain for impending doom, despite us having very similar starts to the season.
Anyone would think you’re a GTFC fan.
I know. We all know that we're not playing well at the minute, but the way some people are going on you'd think that Lincoln were 10 points clear at the top of the table. Until last night both teams were on the same points and Lincoln only just hung on for the 3 points last night (so I'm told anyway), so both sides should be of a similar standard and it's all about who handles the situation best on the day. It'll be a very close game in my opinion, but I think we'll need to score at least 2 to win it as it's pretty obvious Ollie Palmer will score against us.

Apparently 7200 tickets have been sold which surprises me.

Why should it be a surprise that we'll sell a lot of tickets when playing our oldest rivals back in League football? I just don't get the logic behind this viewpoint.

Because all of the doom mongers on the fishy think that the fishy=real life.
There's plenty of fans out there that don't bother with message boards, and they're probably of the opinion that we've had an indifferent start rather than an utterly dreadful start.

Is this thread likely to have us accused of being 'obsessed' with them as they always used to claim? Cos I just counted 5 or 6 threads on Vital about us. But that isn't obsession, in the same way that attacking the oppositions bus and causing chaos on trains back from Notts is NOT really anything, ok? Glad we're clear on that.

Agree, Read my View From Colchester thread, It is from the Colchester reporter and manager and there was no mention of a rubbish game, The Fishy always goes over the top on whatever we do, We are never as bad as most make out, BUT Not as good as most make out when we are winning.

There is a lot of truth in that. Even to be a message board member means you like to analyse, dissect and argue the points of everything from the non chairman down whilst the majority of fans just get on with it. Let us hope the weekend sparks us into life.

I get your point but last night there was four people in my group, all season ticket holders and the other three don't come on this board at all. To a man, we all thought the game and overall matchday experience was dull in the main. We are treading water, waiting for a bit of excitement. When you almost certainly know that if we go behind, we will draw at best, it sort of kills it when the opposition get an early goal. They are a poor side playing away with a dreadful away record, yet we never really got a charge on and pinned them back for any sustained period. We never really do that to anyone.

This forum is about as enjoyable as a large dose of haemorrhoids at the moment.
