If anyone thought the manager review on Vitals was slightly biased :/

Those of a nervous disposition look away now.

Not sure who this guy is, and I'm not sure how you can review something that hasn't yet happened (think the word they are looking for is "preview") but they really do hate us don't they? I'm more than happy for the gimps to underestimate us. They are really lording it over us at the minute aren't they? And rightly so, they should enjoy their good times while it lasts, I have a sneaky feeling that normality will be restored sooner rather than later. Roll on 18th August, UTM

I meant that he has reviewed pre-season - god only knows why. It’s their first season above us in 7 years and the levels of grandeur are unreal.

He's absolutely obsessed with us that chump. Every time I have a browse of their forum he is on there banging on about us.

He’s a fool who thinks he’s more knowledgeable than he is. Case in point being calling Dembélé a striker. Our squad is improved and our management team is improved but he predicts we’ll finish lower than last season. Bizarre. Nothing like a bit of blind prejudice eh?

Not for a second saying we’ll be anywhere near promotion but we won’t be bottom four.


Looking forward to a brighter future now Fenty has gone.

They've got really uppity lately, haven't they?

As i've said before and i'll say again, what goes around comes around. Somewhere down the line, we will again see another image of a fat Gimp crying as they get relegated. Wonder if he stuck it out in non league?

Hahaha yeah, I was aware of that when I was posting. I go on most L2 club forums from time to time when bored though, to be fair.

Always useful to have a contrarian view aired.sometime makes you question your assumptions. I think the essential,point he missed is how bad we were pre Jolley and how much he improved us within 3 months.he now has had a full pre season to instill his dietary ,fitness and tactical ideas upon a group of players who are almost all his choices.
I see quite a few parallels with Southgate and England and like them think we will surprise a few people

At the end of the day we could’ve brought in anybody and anyone we’d get a pessimistic biased view from down the road ? But at the end of the day ? Who really cares ? I could look at Lincoln’s summer and say excrement like

“Danny Cowley not only hasn’t replaced goalkeeper Allsopp, he’s also not replaced his second choice keeper Paul Farman either. Promoting third choice keeper Josh Vickers and signing underwhelming Boreham Wood keeper Grant Smith. Also losing Alex Woodyard, Elliott Whitehouse and Ollie Palmer are blows that are only half soothed with O’Connor and Akinde. Overall Lincoln have taken a step sideways and shuffled back a bit this summer and where there rivals have strengthened Danny Cowley (who may look to a new job by Xmas) is in for a challenge if he wants to build on last year”

....but no one gives a excrement what I think certainly not Scotimp, Lee Frecklington or Grant Brown

The fact this guy paints Dembele as our best player from last season is enough to show his lack of knowledge just like said Imp would tell me Palmer isn’t fit to lace Akinde’s boots !

Pre season article says Town will do shite, fishy goes in to melt down, Town do shite. Happens pretty much every year. Hopefully we prove the vast majority of predictions wrong but the evidence suggests we won’t be romping away with the league this year!

Vickers was 1st choice till he injured his thigh and was out for 8 months ,Allsopp came in because Farmans confidence had been shattered.

Woodyard wanted out in January but Palmer and Whitehouse were not regulars hence they left.


Far too early to call things one win and the FGR game will be forgotten.

Yup,, all six of them  


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'

They could have been a lot more annoying TBF, if the boot was on the other foot we would have had a field day with the brothers.

Perhaps because they only managed to scrape through themselves, or maybe their distaste for the veggies was greater than their dislike of us.
