Just been reading their excuses on their message board, it's just laughable! Saying this isn't a big game for them, mansfield, boston and scunny being bigger games and we see this as our 'cup final', are therefore taking more. All wrong, they just have poor support.

Got to pity them really. They got a nose bleed when they reached the dizzy heights of the league 2 playoffs. Small club, excrement fans, going nowhere.

one of my mates is a big lincoln fan, he still travels all over the country with them, and he's more excited about the next two games than me, he's what id class as a true lincoln fan, and hes never said anything about this not being a big game for them etc etc, apart from in a bit of banter here and there

Just poor excuses from the rest, rather similar to some of the poor excuses you hear from wollies around Grimsby about not coming to watch, like that bloke on look north "i refuse to come see Grimsby town until theyve got some young lads in the side" I dont even need to explain why this is a silly remark do i? But this just sums up the sort of wolly you get


Colour my life with the chaos of trouble.

That sounds familiar.

We're taking 8000 to Forest in the cup and there is the real possibility of us outnumbering the home support. Forest fans believe this is because we're tinpot, they don't care about us and all that jazz. They miss the point that taking 8000 is an impressive show and that their support is an embarrassment for a club that has such delusions of grandeur.

It's an insurance policy for if/when they lose the game and they can say 'we don't really care about you anyway, it's just another game.' Won't stop them masturbating themselves into a frenzy if they win though.

Christ I hate Forest, please don't tell me Lincoln are the same with you.

You have hit the nail on the head there Bilo, it's a no lose situation for them, lose- they didn't care win-and they'll rub our noses in it. 8,000, I know it's only down the road from you, but that's still a good turnout, fair play to you. Why aren't Forest turning up? That would be big bragging rights if you outnumbered them!!

The reasons they're giving range from not caring about the game, a point they're always a little too keen to make, to them just being so awful their fans don't want to waste their money. Looking at the league, I lean towards the latter. They've complained about the pricing as well (£15 for ST holders and £20 for general sales) but it hasn't stopped us making our way so that seems a poor excuse. Fact is, their support in general has waned badly since last season with Davies leaving them as they become a mediocre Championship side making it a sight worse.

Back to the correct side of the East Midlands, the Cup does seem to generate a lot of imagination for us. We have a bit of cup tradition considering we've never won the fecking thing after all! We sold out in two or three days at home against Man City last season and took over 6000 to the replay on a Tuesday night.

I would have liked to have seen how many we would have taken to sheff united, especially if we get good results in the next two matches, but let's not dwell on that.

I don't actually hate Lincoln that much, but it's got to be the best fixture for both clubs this season, especially as it's on boxing day and new years day and i think it's good to get a bit of a rivalry going, can create more interest. However, i feel they would rather belittle the game, as that is a safer option.

Whereas, i think there is more of a rivalry between leicester and forest, you would think forest fans would still turn up!
