My first for the Imps was a very cold (for me) Tuesday evening at Alfreton in March 2015.

4-3. Former Imp Ian Greaves was Mansfield's manager at the time. He pre-warned his players by saying there was nothing non-league about Lincoln - he was right. Great game, we lost in the last couple of minutes.
I’m loathe to challenge two of 100% Imps major stattos in Merthyr and Scot Imps. However I’ve done a bit of scratching and though I haven’t yet unearthed definitive proof. I might yet be wrong.

A month before this game Lincoln beat scunny 2-1 in a league game.
In my first mention of Botham I said he played centre back. He is recorded amongst Scunthorpe squad list as a defender that season.
Think a scunny programme from later that season, or an archive visit to the library or echo office for a sports echo. Might be the only way to confirm or deny that Botham played that day.
Thought Cammack played for us during the 81/82 season and went back to scunny during that season?
Like you spartans I am wary of going against either Merthyr or Scotimp on these things. But it's the sort of thing you don't forget. The November 1983 game was my strongest candidate for the Botham sighting. When I am in Lincoln at xmas I'm going to check my Dad's loft for the old prog as my Dad often wrote down lineup changes.I’m loathe to challenge two of 100% Imps major stattos in Merthyr and Scot Imps.

Still, I’m reading some great stuff trying to find the line ups that day.
