Was is StagInCuckney that just didn't like him and refused to believe anything he said even though it was right? :lol:

Yeah, he was the one that was spouting shite about John Radford. I remember quite a few Wrexham and Grimsby fans falling for it :lol:

I hope JJ comes back one day.

Earlier in the season when we had put a few results together I rocked up to the CG where we were anticipating an easy game at home to Crawley, which would move us towards the play-off picture. We were dire and lost 1-0.

I didn't go on Saturday but after beating Bury at Gigg lane, a home game against Yeovil is pretty much manna from heaven. We concede a last minute equaliser and draw 1-1.

Our patchy home form is killing us again. We have a tricky game in hand away at Newport on Tuesday where the winners probably think they are still in with a play-off shout and for the losers, its season only.

Our away form is generally decent so i'll take stock on Wednesday morning.

After next weekend Lincoln fans can stop posting in this thread. They're going up. Well done to them.

Be interesting to see how far up the leagues they can shithouse themselves, but fair play to them they're very good at what they do. Maybe they'll end up like the modern crazy gang or something.

We are very consistent, but can play as well as anyone too.
I think we ought to have unfilled stars on our shirts for when we make it to the Championship?

Love this post on Lincoln Vital:

On Quest TV last night Ian Holloway jokingly said the Cowleys should get a statue right now for their achievements. Is this something we should start to think seriously about !?

I realise it's bad form to build a statue while someone's career is still in progress and the Cowleys are far too modest to accept. But if came to pass where would the statue be situated - outside the ground or in town?

I'm thinking maybe a Mt.Rushmore style affair with Bill Anderson, Graham Taylor, Colin Murphy and the Cowley's all together...
Thoughts ?

I suppose we could always play the beautiful one touch pass and move and struggle at home and limp in to the play offs wouldnt that be something , i wonder how far FGR would go up the leagues without the vegan money and there beautiful football

Actually I shouldn’t be so arrogant. We could well struggle next year - for a start we’ll be 6 points down without little Mark Coopers annual gift-wrapped present to us.

Think a lot of what is posted on there is tongue in cheek in the knowledge it’ll get the voyeurs sat in their bedsit on the Nunny jerking themselves into a tizzy.
Definitely not in that case.

From what ive seen of various football statues the sculptors get all the heads hopelessly out off perspective to the rest of the body ,dont think it will be an issue with the cowley,s statue :fl:

I refuse to believe that is real.

Honestly it’s probably the weirdest football forum I have come across, I dunno if it’s the old hardcore that have gone nutty or it’s the new fans that don’t have a clue. All I know is none of em like Mansfield :lol:

It was Ian Holloway that mentioned the Cowleys should be getting a statue after how they have transformed Lincoln :bg:.

As for vitals, it's more middle of the road and like virtually every other football forum, (though lots hardly get many posts) Lincoln City Banter however is a different beast altogether.

Funnily enough there’s threads on there almost daily worrying about how Mansfield fans perceive them. Glad that’s cleared it up.

There is a real dislike for us on there, but maybe that’s as we’ve chesterfield and notts county and they’ve only Grimsby, so maybe see us with a higher importance than we deem them. That’s my rationale for it anyway

Either way they’ve done well and learnt from last season - it’s one of the reasons where if we don’t go up I’d keep flitcroft next season - though it would be a very poor return on the budget - but as notts county have proven so well, money doesn’t always get you far

His remit is promotion. If we don’t go up he’s failed.

However, for the stake of stability yes, I’d keep him - just

Does which way the wind blows determine which profile you log on with?

Always been pretty well liked, although it’s probably changing due to a clear ‘we hate mansfield’ tone since Lincoln returned to the FL.

Shame really, especially considering how similar both clubs are really - people get carried away very easily in football.

I think that's probably Devonexlondonimp, who's a bit of a wag and always suggesting statues of Bob Dorrian, our former chairman. It's his 'schtick'.
It was GertLushImp. Really liked the bit about his preference being something similar to the Mount Rushmore chaps. Which of Lincoln's enormous mountains would be used is what I would like to know? :lol::lol:

Surprisingly it wasn't him, I've checked the first post. The other prime suspect would be "Unbelievablejeff", he also comes up with some proper tripe. Example, regarding Bury.
"It would leave a sour taste in my mouth if we finish higher than them for financial reasons, rather than footballing ability.”
It wasn't him either. Sadly, talking complete shit seems to be contagious.
