When this team starts to settle down with everyone coming back from injury and jells together then it's going to get interesting.

Do you not think it should already be interesting, it's December.

Clive moaning about Santa now. He'd prefer to be back commentating on matches in the 60s wouldn't he!

Seems quieter in the stand than usual.

Good question.

I think over the last few games we have been holding our own in the league with position but not pushing forward up the league. With those that are coming back in to the team I do suspect that thing will be on the up again. Might take a few games though for everyone to get use to each other's playing styles etc.

I don’t like one up front, nobody does. But let’s add context it isn’t a completely isolated 1, he has up attacking midfielders behind him. As per my earlier post, they aren’t natural 10’s, but there role is to be attacking today.

However, as I type we punt a stupid long ball to Godden....

Confident start from McCallum; the Liverpool rumours have obviously gone to his head. It’s clearly all a tactical ploy from MR!

How hard is it for them to get the commentary roughly in sync with the pictures? Every week its the same problem.

Godden is nowhere near fit enough to start a game.

Yea, you’re probably right

Looking at that starting line up, I'm saying it's a nailed on 0-0

Just realised their striker - Walker - is the one who rejected us in the summer (if I remember the events correctly?).

Good, five minutes in and he looks shit. Didn’t want him anyway, next.

Not a bad effort from Shipley. Not sure the keeper had that covered if it had been a bit lower.

McCallum is fine on the ball and moving forward it’s his defending that’s not great

Kelly shot wide. Playing well but nowhere near enough men in the box when we attack

“Godden’s pulled off the centre back, which he does well”

We’re definitely too friendly with the opposition

I agree, I also think his crossing is poor; too floaty.

Lincoln are trying to play out from the back, but their centre backs are absolutely not footballers and we are doing a good job of exploiting and pressuring that.

They look defensive. Very comfy against 1 striker. We are making all the running

The subs bench is so strong you would struggle to pick who to bring on in the 89th min

We're basically playing 3-4-3, I'm not sure how much more attacking people want us to line up.
