The terror of being a Lincoln fan

Quoted from mimma

Just under 1000 wimps travelled.
. The way they big their support up I would have thought that they would have taken a lot more than that.

We sold just under a 1000, but it was pay on the gate, so I think there were probably more. But I imagine late change to KO time, poor weather, just after Xmas, on TV were some of the reasons. We are taking 4,300 to County on Saturday, I hope we put another nail in their coffin. They have flirted with it , lets see how they cope in the hellhole of the NL.

But no dogshit near the ground?

They all looked like silly teenage girls in your end on the tv

There was probably a few of them in there, quite a diverse supporter group now Mickey!

Been to Bury 4/5 times, never overly noticed too much dogshit. It's not a great place though, makes Lincoln look like LA.

Regardless of our dislike for Lincoln, that is really scummy of the Bury idiots. I don't understand anyone wanting to fight someone because of the football team they support but if you're going to, then do it away from the ground with like-minded knuckle draggers and not near families with kids and regular, law-abiding supporters. Thankfully it doesn't seem like anyone was seriously hurt and I hope it doesn't put off any of the kids from watching their local team.

This is the problem for little clubs like Lincoln when they suddenly find themselves in 'big' games with higher attendances and dyed-in-the-wool knuckle dragging nutters posing as real, as opposed to plastic, supporters (like theirs) representing the opposition.

Something we Mariners have experienced for many years, if they find themselves in Div 1 or God forbid even higher Lincoln will learn that this sort of excrement happens

Quoted from 1mickylyons

During the game it was alledged Imps fan`s were constantly goading the home supporters next to them .None of that is different to what goes on at every other game at every other ground. Nobody was arrested and no injuries reported from what I can see so pretty doubtful it was anything out the norm at a game unless you only started watching football in 2016?

Yep, none of that is out of the norm.

However, it's been confirmed by Bury fans as well that a reasonably large group of Bury fans went round to the away exit to intercept the Lincoln fans as they left the stadium. That certainly isn't cool. There might not have been any injuries or arrests but it's clear that what did happen was a significant amount of intimidation. Nobody deserves that when you're just trying to exit the ground. It's got nothing to do with how long you've been attending games.

Quoted from RoboCod

Any fans leaving early for this ambush would have missed the 86th minute equaliser too. Doesn't sound like Bury-like ,unless they've suddenly developed some Ultra's

Apparently they left at about the 90 minute mark, so they didn't miss the equaliser. Would have missed an injury time winner had it happened though, which tells you all you need to know really.

Sounds strangely similar to when Lincoln dickheads had a go at families and scarfers on South Park a couple of years ago.

Must've missed that episode.
