Rovers Had Better Beware, The Imps Are Coming

[Jules]

The Glam Rock sounds of Sweet's Blockbuster were dominating the charts when Lincoln City last made the 250-mile round trek to Blackburn, but 45 years on and the Imps will be eyeing a notable Carabao Cup scalp when they finally make a return journey to Ewood Park tonight.

Their forum suggests some major changes for their team, but they are respectful of the Imps.

The FA Trophy run in 2016-17 was also our best ever - the previous best was the quarter-final defeat at Enfield, which still gives me nightmares.

Bradley Dack is still out injured.

My first game at SB was the League Cup second round replay against then-Third Division Blackburn in September 1971. Phil Hubbard scored a hat-trick in a 4-1 win, since when I have been hooked on Lincoln City. I have blamed Hubbard ever since.
