My son has received an email notifying him of the cancellation of this year’s Lincoln Half, but without any explanation. Have just checked Echo and there’s nothing in there. Anyone know anything about it?

Although it’s an old rugby league clip, is this the type of commentary critics of Radio Lincs are looking for ?!?!

Headline in today’s NLP, relating to an incident at the FA Trophy game yesterday between Warrington Town and Guisley (both teams play in the Northern Prem Prem) Apparently an away “fan” urinated into the water bottle of the Warrington Town goalkeeper. The perp was identified by other fans, and...

Reported in this week’s NLP that a 23 year old player for Bath City (Nat League South) suffered a serious head injury when he collided with the perimeter wall. He had emergency neurosurgery and is in intensive care. The incident happened 5 minutes into the match and the game was abandoned...

I reckon Grimsby Borough have achieved promotion from the Northern Counties East League. That would suggest they’ll be playing in the Northern Premier League East Division (step 4) next season, where Lincoln United currently play (though are looking touch and go for relegation). Gainsborough...

No, not watching The Imps!! Amazing pictures of Endurance on the Antarctic sea bed. The way Shackleton and his men were saved/rescued is incredible https://www.bbc.co.uk/news/science-environment-60662541

As well as the Imps being in a dodgy position, the City’s second side, Lincoln United are in danger of relegation. Playing in the Northern Premier League East Division, at Step 4 of the non-league pyramid, they sit 4th from bottom in the table. Nationally, there are 8 leagues at this level...

Can you spot the "deliberate" mistake in an article headline in our LOCAL newspaper?!? The content is actually ok https://www.lincolnshirelive.co.uk/

For the women No idea what the rationale/motive is for this - they've played in the normal black second strip this season (and in last years red against Lincoln United) - but am putting 2+2 together, and maybe getting 5, but wondering if it is the FA Cup tie against Liverpool that has...

Of Arsenal, Liverpool and England has sadly died age 70. I knew he’d suffered with Parkinson’s, but that was apparently diagnosed in 1984, so he’s lived with it for almost 40 years

Another of the '66 World Cup squad has died, age 87. A Wolves legend

Has died, age 91. Many of us “older” ones will remember him as a football commentator on ITV. Hadn’t realised that he’d settled in this area after retirement

Not suggesting it’s a “must watch”, but watched the BBC programme on iplayer last night about Macclesfield FC, it’s new owners (incl Robbie Savage) and the work they’ve done to get the new/phoenix club running. Disappointed they didn’t show any of the community work they’re doing at the stadium...

There's been quite a bit of comment on different threads recently. Echo article attached in which MApp gives an update https://www.lincolnshirelive.co.uk/sport/football/football-news/sean-roughan-lincoln-city-crossroads-6164557

Another of the legends of the 1966 World Cup has "passed away peacefully at home following a long illness", age 83 I hadn’t realised that he is Liverpool’s record league scorer. Looking at the BBC website, appears he signed for Liverpool in 1958, so may well have played against the Imps. Always...

Terry Cooper, defender in the “great” Leeds side of the late 60s/early 70s, and England international, has died, age 77. No other info on cause Thoughts are with his family

Imps fans who have an interest in non league football may be interested in the new league structure announced by the FA this week. Article from the NLP attached https://www.thenonleaguefootballpaper.com/latest-news/391660/revealed-national-league-system-club-allocations-2021-22/ At a personal...
