Summary of the first half.
Title: Re: Rovers Vs Lincoln (EFL Trophy)
Post by: Alan Southstand on September 03, 2019, 08:50:09 pm
All Rovers, but I’m afraid we are not taking our chances. Lincoln have had 3 shots and 1 on target (which was a mistake by Copps in the build up).

It’s being played like a training match.

Sadlier needs to start pulling his socks up - not a good half from him.

Surely, it is a training match! We really don't want to be involved in this pointless competition any longer than is necessary.

Cheers hound, thanks for that.

Akinde always shoots low and usually with very little power so if the keeper guesses correctly it is an easy save.

Seen as we are out of the league cup this will be one of only 2 chances of getting to Wembley the other being the play offs.

Yes the under 21 teams have ruined the competition and should have added the conference teams and made it a preseason tournament but maybe it wouldn’t have been cost effective but more fans would have shown up to games
