Title: Lincoln - 3 Things to do to get the Win!
Post by: Alan Southstand on January 29, 2021, 09:08:06 am
According to a Lincoln supporters site, this is one supporter’s version of what they need to do, to get the 3 points, tomorrow:

Quote
Here’s what Chesterimp said:

1. Quick start – as nlondonimp says, a repeat of Portsmouth. After some sluggish and loose starts, we needed to start fast and precise against Pompey and achieved that. Needs the same on Saturday against good in-form opposition.

2. Be the bullies – we didn’t let Portsmouth bully us as they did at Sincil Bank earlier in the season. Doncaster at Keepmoat were different, a better footballing side in an even match between two good footballing sides, but let’s get every advantage and get in their faces. But make sure we still have 11 on the pitch at full time!

3. Bring the away form home. We stuck to our game on Tuesday as Portsmouth sought to keep it tight once a man down, effectively being the more defensive away side. Patience, speed and accuracy brought the win, though MA will not have been happy with the edgy minutes after the goal and will no doubt have insisted it doesn’t happen again.

Or simply, score at least one more goal than your opponent..

Would be great if an ex-Grimsby player comes off the bench for us to score an 85th minute winner..

I imagine that’s how most managers prepare for a game. No need to look at tactics, your opponent’s strengths and weaknesses etc - just tell them to go out and score more goals. Simple eh! ;)

We had a Sunday League manager who's pre-match tactics talk one week was "Midfielders. Win ' ball and gi it to ' wingers. Wingers. Get round yer man and gerra cross in. Forrads. Get on ' end of it and bang it in back o ' net."

Surprisingly, it worked.

So apparently Lincoln did everything they could to beat us today including getting two penalties, and were the more threatening side judging by the comments on lucky pint.

But we scored one more than they did. 

I rest my case.!!


Tongue very firmly in cheek btw..

Job number 1 - keep a clean sheet - you can't lose.

Anything after that = bonus.
