Match Thread: Crewe Alexandra v Lincoln City

[Clive Ford is back]

Pleased I've witnessed him in a City shirt, not sure for how long though. Nothing less than a million.

Edit: Cash upfront.

You've missed out a nought.

I actually can’t recall a defender who runs 30 yards like a gazelle weaving past midfielders before smashing a 30 yarder against the bar ... let alone even attempting it?

But none of us have genuinely witnessed him in a City shirt, I'd love to think before our first £10m+ player moves on to the Premiership that he has the chance to experience a full Sincil Bank. That might well not be until be next season, so better hold that current League position, lads

A young Rio Ferdinand?

Sounds like an erudite valuation to me.

I can't recall a midfielder.....

Then he pings out one of those 50 yard cross-field diagonals perfectly. And defends like a Trojan when the need arises. Oh, and had a stint on the right wing.

A young Rio Ferdinand?

I don’t recall Rio being a goal scoring threat?

 

[German Imp]

Not near retirement age, but I've never seen City in the old Div 2 now Championship make it happen MApp. Early days I know but let me dream in one hell of a terrible year both personal and with Covid.

I have never seen a City team play like this - beautiful stuff like an orchestra.

Credit NorfolkImp, read one of his posts and upgraded accordingly. Is he on the phone to Pep yet, Citeh's answer to Van Dijk is an Imp.

But do you recall him advancing forward, spraying superb passes all over the pitch, never sprinting, never breaking a sweat, oozing class and confidence, and wearing gloves in Autumn?

 

[Imprest 1]

amazed there was no mention of montsma's gloves. you lot really have gone soft on him.

Yeah noticed that, but he is a good player. It's when you get crappy players wearing gloves annoys me...

Well done German Imp, it would seem that you now realise that this team has eclipsed the Wonderful John Beck's Redoubtables.

Selfish I know but we could well have a better chance this season than any other with Covid and finances being quite the leveller!!!

He has to keep his hands soft.

Slightly creepy Notty.

as it was raining, i am surprised he didn't put on a hat.....

 

[JT_LCFC]

Another great result on the road - we really are a forced to be reckoned with. 4 clean sheets on the spin, 6 clean sheets out of 9. Remarkable.

He's not Curly!

 

[Temp]

Seems we can dictate any game for the first 60 minutes, then we have to slow down a bit. Would like to see us putting away more chances in the first half.
Nevertheless, a great start continues. Don't think we'll have too many worries at Doncaster.

Hey, the number of sublimated homoerotic posts on this thread about Montsma makes my comment look positively mainstream.
