Match Thread: Shrewsbury Town v Lincoln City

Decent point, looked a bit in disarray after their pen. Had the chances to grab all three points second half. New lads did ok.
 
With Rochdale the only side below us winning, it was a good day at the office. The traditional City head notes that we remain 9 points clear of 21st place Tranmere. The not often used positive head notes we are only 7 points off a play-off spot 😃
 
FT. A good point and probably a fair result overall. Think the conditions dictated the play a little with mainly Shrewsbury first half and mainly us in the second. The new signings didn’t let themselves down although they need to gel with their team mates, get a bit sharper and get used to the level of the game. Shrewsbury are one of those teams that pull the opposition‘s shirts too much (largely unpunished) and go to ground far too easily (getting unjustified FKs at times). I really don’t like watching them!
 
We are competing well in this League, Sunderland are on the up and we self destructed in that one!
Spot on.

All we could have asked for this season. Competing slightly lower than would have hoped under the Cowleys but one small step back for 2 steps forward next season is fine in my eyes.
 
Missed the last 10 minutes due to loss of signal in the car. Was just hoping my phone didn't 'ping' with a goal until the final whistle went and the ping was a game over one. Happy with a point.
Bring on Bolton - Can't wait for Tuesday.:giggle:
 
Only 7 points behind the play-offs with all those lovely home games to come. Closer to the promotion places than relegation (9 points).

Unbelievably, we are only 13 points behind top place. What a strange season.

Try to keep your head up :)

How are we actually doing? Let's compare the home and away records of our managers this season

Home:
DC 3 games, 9 points (3.0 per game) - which we could not have kept up
MA 5 games, 13 points (2.6 per game)

Away
DC - 4 games, 3 points (0.75 per game)
MA - 10 games, 5 points (0.50 per game)

Under the Aunts & Uncles rule if we'd won that today their points per game would be remarkably similar.

Onwards and upwards.
