We're 9th in the form table, they're 10th. Neither are particularly better home or away. I think I'd probably expect a draw from this to be honest, tougher than the league positions suggest.
Having watched the game on I-follow, I think my takeaway from the game was that the difference on the night was that we didn't waste many chances, and Lincoln missed a few. I can only really think of Simpsons shot late on that we sort of blew as half decent chance, and Lincoln missed two or...

Kinda interested to speculate who this...
Portsmouth comfortable a grade above us physically, but have some tricky attackers. I feel like every one of their corners going in, losing out in the tackle and losing out at the second ball.
Form and team selection obviously means this is a good time for the replay to happen, but Portsmouth will still be comfortable favourites. No-one's expecting us to push up higher than mid table even with a good season, so I think with the two last wins under the belt the pressure is off, and...
Sort of feels like the number of clubs with wealthy owner's willing to subsidise them is the norm rather than then exception now in League One and Two.
Absolutely dog shit performance. Players should be hanging their hands in shame type of game. Other than Barrow's smart simple header from a corner for their first, 3 absolutely clown goals for the rest of the game. Confidence has gone, we've moved from being edged out to one goals losses to...
We're already maxed out our budget and couldn't even bring in any bodies in the last window despite wanting some, so can't imagine January will make any difference for us. Unless somebody working charity wants to take the top earner who's hasn't played for almost a year, we're going to have to...
I just googled it quickly, I'm not sure of the exact amount of the fee, but I think the point is that if you sell a player for the lion shares of a million, you probably can afford to go outbid a club with one of the lowest budgets in the league to a loan player without it being instrinsically...
I'm not frustrated by it - you sold one of your key players for £800k, we've kept all our squad together and put Hoskins on a new 3 year deal. In return that's allows you to go get someone in that we couldn't reach financially. It's only really annoying when it's a team spending massively...
While players can have different levels of performance at different clubs... Kabamba was very poor even at League two level. Apparently we'd been trying to get Muskwe all summer, but you selling Nombe obviously gives you the flex in the budget to go the extra mile which we don't really have the...
I've strangely enough never in my life seen a Derby win. If we finished 5th bottom and beat them just once at home, i'd be satisfied it was a good season.
Yeah, 1 point from 2 home games isnt a great return (though expectations this season is a relegation battle, and our budget is supposedly bottom 2, so not wholely unexpected), but a last minute equaliser always puts a good shine on things, especially going into our derby Saturday.
Also felt...
Sat too deep, and weren't clinical enough on the counter with the chances we had second half. Disappointed with conceding from a corner... lot of our work is made from outperforming xg and having the lions share of the set pieces, and wasnt a great reflection of that.
