The iFollow is set up again for another season of late nights watching the Imps and it will be great the see the crowds returning to games again. Last season was better than expected from the team even though watching some games in empty stadiums had the feel of training sessions about them. The chance to see some of the new recruits for the first time is always a bonus in these early season games as well. Come on the Imps, especially against any Evans coached team.
 
Serious question if things are so bad there financially why is he still there?
Soon jumped ship at Boston when he fucked them over!
Think Steven might be lying again 🤔
 
The match day excitement has returned. Some big clubs in that fixture list, no reason we cannot be in the mix. First goal and a winning start please, City.

Safe journey to all Imps heading to Gillingham.

Going to be a big battle towards the top for the auto and play off spots. The bigger clubs in Lge 1 that were in a mess last season should potentially be stronger. Then throw in the relegated championship teams in and big spenders Bolton in from Lge 2 and it will be a tough job for us.

Hoping we can hit the ground running, though I still think we might have a slowish start to the season.

Really looking forward to see how the new players gell into the existing squad, and when everyone is fit, can we challenge again?
 
Slow and steady wins the race this year. We came out flying last season and the understandable restrictions and work load on a young, small, squad inevitably caught up a bit at the end.

This year I think we're going to benefit from the experience of last season, the games aren't going to come quite as thick and fast and once we have a couple more players in the building I reckon we are going to be better set up and able to deal with the long haul.

I think we will need to be as I am convinced it will be a tougher, more competitive league this season which just makes it even more fascinating.
 
Safe journey to those of you making the trip to Kent. I hope the weather is better than it is here in Cornwall or you are going to get soaked. UTI
