It looks like Lincoln's appeal against Billy Knotts sending-off on Saturday has failed so he will be banned for the Town game.



In other news... quote "LincolnshireLive"

'Imps were fighting fellow Imps' - Fan's shock as Lincoln City supporters fight each other on train after Notts County defeat
Fans say the disorder could harm Lincoln City's reputation.

Lots of drink involved by the sound of it.




When Leeds trainer Les Cocker was once told Norman Hunter had broken a leg, he asked: “Whose is it?”

Maybe it's the first time they've experienced large numbers of young men full of drink in a confined space.  


Through the door there came familiar laughter,
I saw your face and heard you call my name.
Oh my friend we're older but no wiser,
For in our hearts the dreams are still the same.

Come Saturday night if we are 6 points ahead of them all this Fenty, Slade out Hurst was ah1t stuff will disappear for a few days at least.

Then again if it's the other way round this board will go into meltdown.

What happens on the pitch on Saturday doesn't have any bearing on the off the field issues. We won't become a well-run club in a good venue with decent facilities because of a win against the Gimps.

Hence the comment "for a few days at least"!

They've made a right nuisance of themselves in the last 2 games, for all their bragging of a sudden increase in their following they're clearly not very used to it.

Which was very brave of the old fans. Given that they were severely outnumbered  


The wife was going away for a girly weekend.
I jokingly remarked  'I don't know whether to spend it watching porn or watching football'
'you may as well spend it watching porn' she replied
That's understanding darling what makes you say that? I asked

She said 'Well you already know how to play football'

All slightly exaggerated to be honest.
There were 5 train loads of fans on Saturday which were like sardine cans. The authorities knew there were 4,500 fans travelling and either they didn't have enough rolling stock or they just couldn't be ar$ed to put more carriages on I don't know.
Yes there was an incident on one of the trains on the way back and 3 were arrested but in the context of the day it was nothing.
The main problem was at Lincoln station where the police decided to bring the dogs out as the trains arrived back. I was on the first train  back and people dispersed no problem.
The second train was an official football special train with hundreds of people on board and there was a small amount of bother and it's got to be said was  instigated by the police and dog handlers as fans came out of the station going back into the city center. There was no need for dog handlers to be there, everyone would of just dispersed into the city or home and the fighting incident happened on the third train so there was absolutely no need for the police to be over aggressive with the second train as nothing had even happened to indicate that any fans were going to cause any trouble on arrival back in Lincoln.
Anyway looking forward to the cleethorpes lock down on Saturday.  Probably driving over now cos just can't be bothered with the hassle there is going to be from ob.

You should all be banned your fans are just thugs. When we visit Lincoln we only go to look at the lovely church and drink in the beautiful surroundings you lot come to drink copius amounts of ale and fight whilst breaking the law at will.Also now with your massive backing it`s intimidating for home supporters to attend and clearly hundreds of you will be doing a Cologne and taking over our ground.

What a dick towncryer is. Came on here slamming us for an incident which was never reported anywhere else so is almost certainly total shite. Yet when Lincoln were reported for their thuggish behaviour it's 'nothing'.


Looking forward to a brighter future now Fenty has gone.

I was on the special train with my lad it was all good natured but the police press release has raised a few eyebrows they claimed there was trouble on the 7.30pm train from Nottingham so raced from Nottingham to intercept the 6pm special.
Time travel now within their new powers it seems.
Well OTT to greet fans going home with tasers and dogs, don't think we are alone on this as you recently had issues with exaggerated claims of trouble justifying your experiences at Stevenage.
Our fan base is mainly families now think we had 60 plus on duty for our 1st home game against the Millwall of the North west Morecambe lol.

Sadly mate you and the 3k Lincoln who have always followed them have been gazumped by clownshoes like this towncryer.The good news is most of them will be gone by May unless you get promoted.

We are enjoying our time......while it lasts. We are under no illusions, everyone knows football goes in cycles but what are you trying to do diss us whilst you pretend your some big  club with such a massive fanbase. You can't hide from the facts we have more fans than you and whatever the circumstances our fans base is bigger than yours so please spare us 'we've been a massive club for 30 years routine '.

Sounds about right.  I think there are two main reasons why the Police act like they do.

1 is to look as though they are actually earning their overtime.  

2. I feel for most Police officers, when they do nick a scrote for Drugs, or thieving, etc etc, the scrote laughs in their face and they are powerless. However, they know that they can treat football fans anyway they like and nothing will be done about it.  I think all the pent up aggressiveness from during the week can then be expended on a Saturday.  

I do think though, the vast majority of police still deserve our respect.  Just like football supporters, a small minority can cloud judgement on the rest.  A classic example was the Town fans at the away pub in Mansfield, everything going fine, most of the police having a laugh and a joke.  Then all of a sudden, one of the sergeants decides it's time to ramp things up.  Threatening anybody that didn't leave the pub to be escorted to the ground in the next two minutes would be on the next train to Gy.  Shouting and getting all pumped up when there really was no need.  Of course the mood then changed throughout and things got a bit tense.  Fortunately, (as far as I am aware) there were no incidents at that time.  Nevertheless, if there had have been, we all know who would have got the blame. !!

I am seriously beginning to wonder whether football clubs (and fans) in general are being used by police forces across the country in the battle for police budgets. I'll readily admit to a lack of understanding about the general concepts of police budgets but we have now clear evidence of four police forces appearing to over-egg the "risk to public order" pudding around specific matches-Derbyshire clearly talked up the level of unrest on August 5. Hertfordshire had a hand in our problems at Stevenage.

I am seriously beginning to wonder whether football clubs (and fans) in general are being used by police forces across the country in the battle for police budgets. I'll readily admit to a lack of understanding about the general concepts of police budgets but we have now clear evidence of four police forces appearing to over-egg the "risk to public order" pudding around specific matches-Derbyshire clearly talked up the level of unrest on August 5. Hertfordshire had a hand in our problems at Stevenage. Nottinghamshire on photographic evidence alone responded way too vigourously to our visit to Mansfield and now Lincolnshire appear to be on that bandwagon for a game that wasn't in their area! In this day and age it cannot be beyond the resources available for the police to identify and neutralise potential trouble makers leaving the rest of us to be treated like respectable, ordinary folk who choose watching football as a hobby.

Reading yours and the previous posts our old intel officer has retired and now the new ones seem intent on creating a situation when there was non before.
Targeting the singing section as hooligans which is ridiculous, I think you are right they are over-egging it to justify the policing costs & manpower used.
Also think I am not alone with that viewpoint.,

Couldn't get on here quick enough to make a thread about some "alleged" incident involving a few Town fans a few weeks ago.

Dismisses two incidents involving Lincoln fans as "nothing" because they were small incidents.

The police probably create incidents to meet targets, as mentioned in an earlier thread thieves, druggies etc just laugh at them, were as football supporters are always guilty of whatever the police accuse them of, real or made up.

Get real.

You will have had more fans than us for about 2 Seasons out of 30 you bell ringing goon. When the Cowley`s leave and let`s face it that won`t be long you lot will be back where you belong ie behind us.UTM
PS were bloody awful to watch at present win lose or draw you lot will enjoy Saturday it`s your style of football we play now and I expect the ball to spend at least 75 mins between the clouds.

I should be looking forward to the game but lm dreading it  


In his three stints as Grimsby Town manager spanning over 10 years the club was never relegated and he also guided them to three promotions.
Only 14 managers have reached 1,000 matches in charge of a Football League team by 1998 and Buckley is one of them.

I see that Nathan Arnold wasn't involved for them last night.

Is he coming down with a severe case of Grimsbyitis?

All slightly exaggerated to be honest.
There were 5 train loads of fans on Saturday which were like sardine cans. The authorities knew there were 4,500 fans travelling and either they didn't have enough rolling stock or they just couldn't be ar$ed to put more carriages on I don't know.
Yes there was an incident on one of the trains on the way back and 3 were arrested but in the context of the day it was nothing.
The main problem was at Lincoln station where the police decided to bring the dogs out as the trains arrived back. I was on the first train  back and people dispersed no problem.
The second train was an official football special train with hundreds of people on board and there was a small amount of bother and it's got to be said was  instigated by the police and dog handlers as fans came out of the station going back into the city center. There was no need for dog handlers to be there, everyone would of just dispersed into the city or home and the fighting incident happened on the third train so there was absolutely no need for the police to be over aggressive with the second train as nothing had even happened to indicate that any fans were going to cause any trouble on arrival back in Lincoln.
Anyway looking forward to the cleethorpes lock down on Saturday.  Probably driving over now cos just can't be bothered with the hassle there is going to be from ob.

And you think a train carrying young children and women as well as your 6 fingered morons that can't manage a couple of pints without kicking off against their own fans is nothing,Think what it must have been like for young kids and women to witness that in a confined space with no means of escape, you had better give your head a wobble.

Currently Rhead isn't our first choice striker Micky and we are not just launching balls long all the time. We are adapting our style and we do play more football now.
We were the much better team last night first half against Barnet but fair play to them they totally out footballed us second half and could of easily nicked a point.

He's  been injured Les and was on track to be in the squad last night but had a knock in training so didn't risk him.
Should be ok for Saturday but don't know if he will start.

Totally agree with you.
I was going on reports of the 2nd train arriving back and but I think things were a little bit worse than first made out regarding the old bill eg: dog bites, tasering.

I'm hoping he doesn't play as if he does he's bound to score against us. There's already an Ollie Palmer goal to deal with.

I'm sure if Arnold is involved though, he'll get a good reception from the home crowd for scoring "that" goal.

No, but we've spent 12 of those seasons in the second tier.

Genuine question: have Lincoln ever played that high up i the pyramid?

You can't kid us. Everyone on here seems to be predicting an away win just to be on the safe side then you can come on here and absolutely slate us if you manage to get the victory on Saturday. I personally think it will be a lot closer than some people are (pretending ) to predict. It's a derby anything can and probably will happen. There's nothing between us as far as league position goes, it's all about on the day.

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.

Quite. Lincoln might beat us, who knows, but they're being treated like fucking Real Madrid!

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.

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.

I am not sure there was any chaos on the trains back from Nottingham apart from a can of beer being thrown and two fans disagreeing about something.

It's all very odd, fans saying they were bitten by police dogs, police saying no such things happened. I'm all for rival fans sticking together against this but Towncryer used up a bit of that goodwill with his made up post.
Town do have a problem at times with these idiots but bigger followings increase that risk, as Lincoln are finding out.

But I believe we are now referring to you gobbing off about the 'so called' incidents involving our fans. Then immediately trivialising the incidents involving yours.

Sounds like you lot are facing the same issues football fans all over are. Simply being a football fan is 'criminal' apparently.

It's sad that of over 4000 having a good day out, the actions of a few caused a massive, ill-advised over-reaction by the police. Yet again.

The (relative) success you're having, and the increased popularity of LCFC is probably one of the best things to have happened to the city of Lincoln in recent years. A real good news story. If I was leader of the city council, I'd want to meet the Chief Constable of Lincs Police, supporters reps, and the railway company to find out the facts. I'd want to know why my city's name was effectively being dragged through the mud, and why its citizens going about their lawful private business were treated like criminals.


Through the door there came familiar laughter,
I saw your face and heard you call my name.
Oh my friend we're older but no wiser,
For in our hearts the dreams are still the same.

Steve......????
Told you before I'm not Steve but I do know who he is now.
Was actually on the backroom staff for a while as I understand it. May still be, I don't know. Lives in Skeg?
Have you not read the stacywest account of things last Saturday cos that is pretty much spot on.

Anyway rumours are flying around here at the minute that you are providing us with more tickets for Saturday ????

Weird that there's nothing on Twitter or vitals regarding this.. Some would suggest you're talking shite again but the fact you've put "NOT MADE UP" obviously shows you're not. Rob, can we ban this terrible WUM now please? Offers nothing to the forum.

I got involved with BTTB must have been 7 years ago ,when 50 Grimsby fans cycled to Sincil Bank and 5 of us from Lincoln met them half way.
Then was involved with the fans games used to play at Grimsby then end of the season at Sincil Bank they were great games to play in.

I did both BTTB and football matches against Lincoln and loved every minute of it, some genuinely decent lads at Lincoln.

To save making another thread for me this game is massive for our club. Not because it's a derby but because we will have over 3,000 paying customers so we must perform! If we do well I can see a few more sneaking through the gates, if we play poorly then I'm worried about the future

I bought tickets online on Monday to be collected and GY an initial confirmation email but not a second one saying they were 'ready to be collected' or confirmation of processing or anything. Is this normal? Not ordered online in ages but I thought they used to confirm, don't want to turn up tomorrow and them not have my tickets to be collected
