    Bishop Injury?

    Even apart from Bishop's low number of starts over the three years of his contract, I think most would agree (apart from a very few) that Bishop would not be starting for us now if Hamilton and McGrandles were fit. The midfield would be Erhahon, McGrandles, and Hamilton What we have learned...

    Bishop Injury?

    I have a feeling that Bishop's missing just about the two most important games of our season (Wigan and Oxford) will mean that he will not be offered a new contract in the summer. As happened with Walsh, the club will be looking to bring in someone who can play 30-40 games a season. With Walsh...

    Cheltenham Town (a): Score Predictions & Starting XI

    Pretty much has to be Jackson in for Reeco/Duffy, and Roughan to LWB. I don't rate Burroughs, and I'm not sure Skoobs does either judging by his lack of selection the past two month (although he was injured for a spell). Jensen Mitchell Jackson O'Connor Sorensen Mandroiu Erhahon Roughan...

    Well deserved win. Oxford can have no complaints.

    Match Thread: Oxford United v Lincoln City

    Poor Duffy has been playing like a rabbit in headlights. Just playing the ball the way he is facing. No confidence whatsoever. Decent first half though. Looks a one goal game to me.

    Oxford United (a): Score Predictions & Starting XI

    It will be the same 11 that started Saturday I think, with Skoobs hoping they just had a bad day, and the importance of the game will triumph over their tiredness.. Bishop missing our two most important games of the season has, in my opinion, lost him the chance of the club offering him a new...

    Summer Transfer Rumours

    A parallel with Mandroui possibly, after the rollicking Danny got from MK? As John says, Grant improved after his MA rollicking and it finally clicked with him what he had to do to realise his potential. Similarly Danny has definitely got the message about having to work hard, and let’s hope...

    Possession

    Personally I think the possession stats have a lot to do with Skoobs having no forwards for the first half of his games, and virtually no midfielders during the latter half. At full strength with everyone fit I think we would pass through midfield more. I would like to see us get away from...

    Check Bazzzers photo further up the thread. The ball was out. Although the Lino was in no position to be sure it was.

    Jensen - 6 Thought he should have done better in their second goal, but the shot hitting the ground first may have deceived him Sorensen - 6.5 Got forward on several occasions into their box, but poor crosses didn't find him. Mitchell - 6 Did OK in a game where the centre backs were not...

    Definitely out. If Taylor’s right foot is on the line, it’s physically impossible to hook the ball back with his left foot and the ball to still be in play. As Hone said, the Lino guessed as he was nowhere near the byline when he flagged. However it does look as though he got it right.

    C Cmon. Nobody on here is moaning as far as I can see. They are commenting on the game. Everyone knows Skoobs has worked a miracle to get us in this position, and everyone has I'm sure enjoyed the run. This isn't the 1960s and early 70s when the reaction to today would have been "they don't...

    Not sure I agree Imp, although I realise everyone sees a game differently. I think Clanford had it right above when he says "Wigan were by far the better side. Tighter, better in possession and took their chances.". They had 65% possession, more shots on target and more corners than us. Yes, we...

    As excellent as Jensen has been this season, he unfortunately cost us two points at Reading, and a point today. Not that we deserved a point today, as we didn't.

    We’ve got further on this run than anyone thought possible, but probably got what we deserved today. Considering what an injury hit season it’s be, no surprise really.

    Big game for Mandy as we need him to contribute with the huge Oxford game on Tuesday, especially if Bishop will not be fit for that one.

    I'm not sure we will have that pleasure. iFollow continues for ex-pats, so they will stay with the Radio Lincs commentary I'm sure. For the Sky games previously covered by iFollow for UK viewers (midweek and Saturday International weekends), I doubt if Sky will have enough commentators to not...
