    They were good. No-one else has caused us anything like that sort of trouble. However, they won't do anything this season because they're calamitous at the back.

    I'm glad that's finished. Three points. That's all that matters.

    Bloody hell! That was very strange. From about the 15th minute, and the one that wasn't given, we were so open. Rushworth has been brilliant, and on the one occasion that he wasn't, Kitching was.

    I now want Lincoln to play Nice in a biscuity football bonanza.

    We’ve not played anyone claim

    Our start has been favourable. Our start has been exceptional. These two statements aren't mutually exclusive. Plus, nobody's making up the numbers this year; all teams are competitive at the level they are playing at. It is just a start at this stage, though, so I'm trying to keep my feet...

    What are your feelings of gordan strachans time as manager here

    I know. I didn't like him, either. Though now I have no opinion on him particularly. He was very young; he's probably quite a different person now.

    Bellamy was coming back off a very serious injury and so even if fully fit, was very rusty, and also stepping up a level. He also was the wrong type of player, as he wasn't a natural finisher (he found his niche at Newcastle, I think). He was a poor signing, but it wasn't down to his failings...

    Belgian Cedric Roussel absolutely owned Adams and Keown that day. Take whatever analogy you like from that.

    Flattered them, that score. An absolutely wonderful game of football.

    He's without question the best player I've seen play for us.

    What are your feelings of gordan strachans time as manager here

    The football was often expansive and entertaining, but there's always the feeling that we generally underachieved. We had some players of genuine quality, and, in Dublin an Huckerby, one of the best strike partnerships in the league. But we never finished above 11th. Yes, we were up against...

    Acceptable cheat or not?

    There are worse things to call you than old fashioned for that. Some are good, some are shit. Just like the men. Funny that, eh?

    Both of the above. One of the many pleasing things about this start has been the number of goals we've had where there's been someone in the right place to batter it in from a few inches. That's coaching, and something we previously didn't;t get enough of.

    Quite a few subs and their bloke was down injured for a while. I was expecting it.

    Didn't enjoy that second half. Despite the fact that we should have had more goals, we never looked like we had significant control.

    Ok half. Not been hugely fluid, but feel we should be further ahead here. They've had some very good fortune in their box. Not sure if we got away with that penalty shout or not.
