Drainage going in all over the pitch by the looks of it. This should hopefully represent a tangible step forward in the quality of the pitch - the first drainage upgrade since about 1905, isn’t it?

Quoted from Limerick Mariner


There is no doubt that Lincoln have more and better tractors than we do.

They also use them to fetch their stranded fans home when they try to get to Blundell Park in bad weather.


Yeah. Me and Grantham Mariner drove around Lincoln on the A46 bypass to get to Cleethorpes for that game in  December 2005. The roads were fine.

Ah yes, the infamous Blizzard of 05, such treacherous conditions that effected only the routes from Lincoln to cleethorpes, stopping swathes of Lincoln fans in their tracks, rendering their attempts at visiting Blundell Park futile…I remember it well…

A town win, a drive back to Lincoln in clear conditions and little snow to be greeted with Lincoln City’s answer to Michael Fish in my then local, informing me that travel was dangerous, impossible, and you’d needed to have been Sir Ranulph Fiennes to get there…before raining on his parade, or snow if you prefer and telling him that I’d been at the match and managed to get get back safely in my knackered Rover without so much as a skid or swerve…

You're being a bit harsh mate, it's a genuine medical condition round Lincoln that the locals are indeed allergic to snow.  They had to cancel the christmas market a couple of years ago after 0.2mm of snow devastatingly hit the bailgate. Terrible scenes.

Lincoln has a long-standing engineering industry.  Maybe they make tractors and get “Mates rates” for re-doing their pitch?  

Please feel free to discus. ☺️

intercourse off! No chance he’d spend money on buckets and spades, even with a huge discount, he’s just make them use a wheelie bin and an existing shovel…
