Fair result I reckon. One positive is that we showed a lot of fight in 90 minutes it's just a shame about the finishing. Linesman on the findus side missed 3 massive offside decisions. 😡

Not much to get excited about today. Great support and atmosphere for the first 10 mins or so, but it's a shame that the team couldn't feed of it, and it all went a bit flat really.

This is not good football to watch by any stretch of the imagination!

well....
better result than expected....
zero goal threat from Vernon..Matt or Jones....
no width....
Davies..Clarke and Collins in particular solid for me..Dixon not so.
Woolford is the new Monkhouse, little attacking threat, unable to run his man and too deep for a winger of my liking....but definately a Slade favourite.
Front line offered very little service and threat especially first half.....
Summerfield was everywhere and   backed up by Berrett....

We need width though...rarely got behind them and set piece delivery was awful.

7660 ...yeah...ok ....clearly room for another 1000 wasnt there?!?

Oh and...large home gate expected...i know lets only open two turnstiles in the Pontoon!!

Fairly even game, but nevertheless a poor game with very little quality. Any other form of entertainment and you'd be asking for your money back. Summerfield and Barrett did ok, although we're very pedestrian in our build up play. Defence was pretty solid, and very little for either keeper to do really, with Arnold having the only real chance for them in the 1st half, and Berretts run in the 2nd half, our only real chance. I thought Matt was very poor, for a big lad, he doesn't win anything in the air, can't hold the ball up, and has no pace. Everybody else was pretty poor, with Dembele and Woolford not on their games today.

On this evidence you're looking at two mid table sides at best, and for the casual supporter, they're hardly going to be coming back in their droves, so back to the 4000 gates again. Anyway a points a point, and on a plus point our next 4 games are against teams who appear to be even worse then us, Port Vale, Crawley, Cheltenham and Morecombe....UTM

Heard loads of comments along the lines of "this is awful, i won't be back in a hurry".

See Mansfield did the biz in the other early kick off against the league leaders.

Poor game with no quality from either side. Palmer and Green subdued and easily snuffed out and the same at the other end with Matt and Jones dominated.

Summerfield was excellent in winning he ball, intercepting and keeping us in possession. Just wanted someone to beat an opponent to create some space.

Neither side deserved all 3 points imo

PS Didn't think Raggett was particularly comfortable on the ball tbh

If today teaches us anything, it's that for all the money they've splashed and all the fanfare, Lincoln are at present no better than us. Lets get behind the team moving forward and hopefully we can improve on the pitch.

For a match between rivals it was poor, its up to us as the home team to show more intent, its a good job Lincoln were terrible as well, one long yawn fest and neither will make the playoffs or get relegated

My MOM was Summerfield

Pretty even. Both teams had a very similar style of place and cancelled each other out. Point is fair. I thought summerfield was superb. Won tackles, made the right decisions, some excellent long passes and worked his boll#%+$ off. Berrett also had a decent game. Another special mention for Paul Dixon as well who I thought was absolutely dreadful. First half was abysmal (being generous) clumsy, slow, sloppy, weak. Improved slightly second half but still not good enough. He was also poor against colchester. I wonder if there's anyone available on a free? Massive weak link.

Poor game,town looked good at the back but none existent attacking threat.
Thought the atmosphere was poor for a derby,town quiet until mid second half.
Decent attendance,plenty of space in the main.
