I had to laugh, but still, the first time in years they throw away a three-goal lead and still can count the goals in the game with one hand!

Why on gods earth would you go on another clubs message board? That’s just weird

I only go on it to read a long standing thread they have running about us out of interest what they have to say, what's wrong with that.

When Leeds trainer Les Cocker was once told Norman Hunter had broken a leg, he asked: “Whose is it?”

Somewhat ironic...

In all seriousness, aside from them not being a real rival, not to me anyway, surely they’re a club we should be reaching out to and seeing how they made changes to move the club forward...

Out of interest are we still behind ...

Sheff Weds
Sheff Utd
Barnsley
West Brom
Stoke
Hull
Scunthorpe

.... in the rivalry pecking order, have I missed anyone off?

As part of a thesis I am working on for my masters I have already been in contact with them over the last few months on this subject.
Their commercial team were very helpful and whilst there are many varied reasons and parts to their success / expansion  they all stem from a single focal point, mantra almost..

Yes, way behind.

Growing up, I saw Lincoln as that posh town up the road that had a football team. More akin to Boston in a footballing sense. You were not on my radar, nor were Donny, even though they are dirty Yorkies.

Can't speak for the younger generation, but the success of Lincoln hasn't rankled anywhere near as much as the success of Scunny and Hull.

Posh? Blimey, I’ll mention that to old mates who grew up on Birchwood, Ermine, St Giles and on Wecky Drive 😁

Well I’m sure if you’ve seen the highlights, the 96th minute penalty awarded, which is quite possibly the worst decision I’ve ever seen in 45 years of watching football ... will have cheered you up no end, in a time of woe.

Lincoln is very similar to gy and in truth maybe worse my mates wife is a senior social worker and as worked in both areas and she reckons Lincoln is worse than north east Lincs in lots of aspects saying that though she said Hull smashes us both out of the park

Well yeah, I know differently now, but any mention or sighting of Lincoln when I were a lad was the Cathedral district and when you live in a working class town with Grim in the title, even Lincoln seemed posh, rather than the truth, which is another northern sh1thole with some nice bits.
