Good luck to them. They are up and we are down at the moment. It will change, it always does.

Given their recent rise in ticket sales;

Funny 'cause it's true!

It’s not how much support when you’re winning that counts it’s how well supported you are when you’re shite . We’ll sell out their away end again on Saturday , they’ve managed to do it at Blundell Park once in the 30 odd years I’ve been going

And to do so on a 16 game winless streak makes it even more remarkable

...which is exactly my point. Still it will be nice to cause an upset in front of a large Lincoln home crowd.
Given the run we're on though I'd happily settle for a 0-1 loss this weekend. Here's to hoping MJ can Work some magic!

Town fans have ridiculed the Imps for years ( rightly so) but as far as I am concerned this no more important as any of he other remaining games. We want 3 points, we would be pleased with a point, if we lose then we need to put in a battling performance which will give us a bit more belief.
Don't understand why someone would trawl opposition web sites and copy them on here. Each to their own

The rivalry of Lincoln & Grimsby supporters has never been so meaningless than it is in Saturday's fixture.
The only importance on Saturday is points for us. The only importance for them should be 3 points for them.
We would love a solitary and classic local derby point, which would be another step towards safety. 3 points would be magic.
They need 3 points, nothing less, since they are already getting the jitters with their shaky attempt to finish in the play off's. They are looking every bit like a club that this season will miss out and finish 8th - 10th in the league.
It's a must win game for them, and draw would be decent for us. But rivalry of fans comes second place to anything on Saturday. The entire focus will be on the result outcome.
I am very confident that when the first ball of the season is kicked at 3pm on a Saturday in August, that both Lincoln and Grimsby will be level, on zero points in EFL 2.

All pretty sensible stuff in fairness to them, banter songs on the first thread and some half decent questions on the second one.
The only contentious one as far as i could see was the " sensible GY supporters would admit Lincoln have always had the potential to be the bigger club" ..... that single comment aside nothing on there that isn't mirrored on here really. Just supporters being supporters.
Perversely i am hoping they do name check JF in their songs, having the opposition fans recognising his contribution is some going , so the more the merrier for me.

I hope so Ascend. I'm also hoping that the board are currently working tirelessly on ways to ensure that they've left no stone unturned in trying to bridge the gap between GTFC and LCFC so we can compete on a more level playing field next season rather that relying purely on a new manager bounce..
