can you buy tickets at the ground today?
Don’t think so. Made a last minute decision to go this morning. Our site has a link that takes you to the Vale booking site. A few minutes and I’ve got a digital ticket to scan at the turnstile.
Think it said you can’t buy at the ground but can pick up pre purchased.
Hope that makes sense 🤣
 
Morning Imps, I reckon we can end the month on a high here and bring home the 3 points. Am presuming we've not had any injuries during the week and thus MK can pick from a nicely gelled squad. Safe travels for all who are going to cheer the lads on #12thman

Come on you Imps!!!!!!!!
 
A win for Vale takes them above us so the league table says two evenly matched sides.

But after the underdog heroics of some recent games it's a different proposition and another challenge for MK's tactical and motivational skills. A lot of rain over here last couple of days too, so after some of Tuesday's slips need the right studs, lads!

Looking forward to this, 4th time at VP I think, previously whoever scored first won without conceding, so defence needs to be on its game if that pattern continues.
 
We need to show the same levels of grit and determination that we have recently, then we'll be OK. Take them lightly and we'll be in a mess - I trust MK to instil the correct mindset - feet firmly on the deck - with the correct studs, of course!
 
Due to family illness I’ve a spare adult and child ticket today - I don’t want any money for them - will happily meet someone outside the ground if they can make use
 
Will be setting off in a little bit for this one. The joys of a quick jaunt up the M6 for me today. Don't think we'll get the 6-2 win as we did the last time we went there, but still hopeful of a win if we keep up the work ethic of the last few games.

Won't be easy though. Vale very much holding their own since coming up
 
Will be setting off in an hour or so with my son. We'll be having a pint or two in Burslem before setting off to the ground, me with the Lincoln fans, him at the opposite end with the Vale fans.
 
interested to see if we can keep up the consistency.

vale will not have as much quality as recent opposition, won’t pass as well, and will make more errors. The difficult bit will be convincing the players they still need to raise their game to the ipswich, Wednesday, Barnsley levels again to get something from today.
 
I think it will be as you were for an away game.


Defend well, try not to concede and hit them on the break.

I expect us to have more of a share of the possession today though and it's a huge pitch at Vale Park which we can use the pace of Diamond on.
