I wonder if we've dodged a bullet.
It's the first time I've seen their Lincoln side, but it looks to me like your basic, bog-standard hoofball-and-muscle outfit.
They've got that lumbering oaf Rhead who used to turn out at Field Mill up front, someone who forced my lifelong Stag mate to boycott games because the football had become so ugly, which kinda gives a clue what they're all about.
Then they've not only the proverbial long throw specialist but pretty much overfly midfield.
It's effective, as proven by our little neighbours' promotion using those tactics, yet ultimately self defeating.
By the way, perhaps more prevalent to ourselves, Saturday's opponents Wimbledon have had a defender sent off. Could those knowing such stuff confirm if he's banned at the weekend or not?

Yes he's banned for Saturday unless they appeal and win. Extra time as well to boot.

Rhead is a carthorse, but effective non the less.
It's pleasing on the eye because they are well drilled and organised. They also press quick and get tight on the opposition when not in possession and tackle hard.
If you chucked a couple of quality players in the Lincon side (example being a more mobile front man and a quick winger IMO) they be a really good side.
Ipswich have been dog egg TBH. expected a bit more from the Championship side

It's all relative though Chris. Who's to say if they were a division or two higher and able to attract better players they wouldn't look as basic. They are clearly the better side and that's no mean feat seeing as they are playing their second game against a side three levels higher.

I don't think the Cowleys were ever even a remote possibility for Town. Even if we had been willing to pay compensation, they would surely not have abandoned what they are building at Lincoln to come here with all our boardroom chaos.
Sounds like the Cowleys are very thorough in building their club up from its foundations-no way such sensible management would be possible at CFC in its current state.
PS radio 5 currently have multiple-managerial-failure Terry Butcher and the man who surely made a large contribution to taking Lincoln out of the league, Chris Sutton, giving Ipswich and Mick McCarthy a verbal kicking.
