Absolutely hissing down in Lincoln but hopefully should stop by 3.
When was the last time Birmingham played at SB? I went to the cup game at their place 20 odd years ago but don’t recall them at Lincoln in my lifetime but may have forgotten one.

Don’t think they’ve been here since the old second division days, so not many will recall that🤪

Looking forward to this in the same way as the Ipswich, Sunderland games etc. Great to be hosting a bigger name as equals. Today I don’t mind how we play as long as we get a result. UTI 👊💥👏

1954 , according to the Imps website, and i,ve heard we have not beaten them since 1911, ( a year before the Titanic sank)
 
Just heading over. Really looking forward to todays game. It will give us a proper indication of where we are. I expect we'll allow them the majority of the possession and look to frustrate them early on. Even without Stansfield, they will have plenty in their squad to compensate for that, but we are the kind of team who nobody likes playing against so I'm confident we can get a result today.
 
Morning, TMT!! Have a great day, those headed to the Bank for the match - looks like the weather's perking up for kickoff and the pitch ought to be better for a soaking overnight (no need for the sprinklers today!).

We can do this, first really big challenge for a few matches and the squad will be raring to go. Too big for L1? We shall see...

COYMI!!!
 
So far this season, the more possession based sides haven't always looked threatening with it and we've kept them at arms length but I think today we're going to be facing a side who are packed full of that much quality, they're going to be threatening whenever they have it.

Agreed. It feels like something close to the best possession based side vs the best side out of possession. I think they may be a cut above but let’s see how good we really are.
 
Our toughest game in the 5 years since we returned to this level. We'll do well to get something, but if we are on the money and they are slightly off we will.

‘During his early career as a youth coach, Davies used futsal coaching to improve the technical development of players, including their ball control and passing.’

futsal boys face-off today. come on scoobi
 
Looking forward to this. Expect Brum to come out guns blazing. If we can go in at half time on level terms I think we make the adjustments necessary and we can sneak a win today.
