1 change, Wright in for Taylor. Will be interesting to see if Halliday is playing further forward or if it will be James, with Halliday in central midfield.
-
So Bostock cannot be ready giving next week to get fit.
According to Liam Hoden tweet Omar Bogle has Covid so that’s 10 days isolation. I bet he was tested before entering our training camp as such.
-
A minimum 10 days, he will be away form the team - but the after effects could keep you out for a lot longer, depending on the severity.

-
Thought he might go with Lokilo instead of Taylor but might be shrewd with Halliday instead given his shooting practice on Tuesday.
-
Lokilo is coming off a concussion so would have been unlikely he can play 90 minutes today.
-
Who is on Co comms on ifollow? Sounds like a player?
-
I see that Sunderland drew earlier...... late leveler for Gillingham...

Is it not Alex Gibbings?

getting even more excited about this season :scarf:
-
Who is Robertson?
-
No taking the knee in another away game.
-
signed this morning!!
-
Lincoln have started really well.
Good run by T-R though.
-
Richards not in the game yet
-
signed this morning!!
Cheers
-
Yeah they are pinging it about well and we are looking vulnerable on our left

Commentators doing head in already getting exicited as soon as get in our half

We’re getting the run around here a bit

T-R what a goal
-
0:1
-
1-0. Get in
-
Yessss!!!! :scarf: :woohoo: :woohoo:
-
What a goal!
-
that's what I call a goal 'against the run of play ' :scarf:
-
Bloody hell!
BobG
-
Get in - first shot on target.
-
Taylor Richards has a real knack for sneaking them in from that sort of range. Hopefully the goal can bring us into the game now as we’ve very much been second best so far.
-
Get in! Scuffed a bit but they all count :scarf:
-
What do you think? Backs to the wall for 75 minutes now? Lincoln won't like that - and they are good enough to make the point forcefully
BobG
-
It’s a corner in a good position.
Classic commentary
-
That’ll teach Lincoln radio commentator to talk about us more respectfully
-
Lincolns hoof ball isn't gonna work well in the wind
-
How f**king good is Taylor Richards!
-
Lincolns hoof ball isn't gonna work well in the wind
Not seen much hoofball today.
-
Smith is growing in influence
-
Lincolns hoof ball isn't gonna work well in the wind
Not seen much hoofball yet, they look very comfortable on the ball, more so than us so far!

Proper baller

mmmmmm I can’t
-
Think we got away with one there - Butler slid in the area and looked like he blocked the shot with his hand. Ref had a decent view but not interested, though.
-
Very lucky there- the wind seemed to be making it harder for defenders
-
Blimey, got away with another one there - Anderson air kicks a cross into the box and the Lincoln forward passes wide from 8 or 9 yards out.
-
Lincoln should have scored there.
-
Get in! Scuffed a bit but they all count :scarf:
Was it? Looked like he arrowed it through a tiny gap to get it into the corner.
-
Lincoln showing why they're currently top. Will be a huge result if we hold on to this lead to the end.

King of the daisy cutter
-
I have got to say Lincoln look very good- this could be a long afternoon
-
Anyone got any Benny Hill music....we are making them look good forchristsake
-
It will be hard for Lincoln to keep this intensity up.
-
They are getting in behind us so many times
-
Are we playing with or against the wind, or is it a crosswind?
-
We are getting murdered down both flanks.
-
Anyone got any Benny Hill music....we are making them look good forchristsake
They are good, a very good side.
-
Is it Simoes not covering back enough?
-
We’re really hanging on here. Hopefully we can make it to half time and then regroup.
-
John is not keeping his man under wraps, constantly beaten and out thought....
-
Do you mean the Lincoln commentator.
If so just change to the away ones.
-
Why does anyone listen to the opposition commentary? Robbie and his co-comms do a great job every week.
-
Their midfielder Johnson is their main man everything good is through him
-
Lincoln not a shot on target yet, how often has that happened to them for a full half a match?
-
Simoes has been great. His best game so far. Proper getting stuck in.
Joe Wright has been excellent too.
-
HT 0-1
I would take a draw if offered right now :chair:
-
According to the BBC, never knowingly right of course, Lincoln have had 70% of the posession.... Ouch.
BobG
-
Agree Brian. A draw would be very creditable. And it would cement our position nicely.
BobG
-

BobG
Yep, but we have 100% of the goal and that’s all that matters
COYR
-
Not watching - is there a wind advantage?
-
for our free kick just ourside the box on the left the wind kept blowing it off the mark toward their end
-
Crafty team, they are good and play at a good pace, but also make a lot of off the ball fouls stopping runs. We are not playing well with poor control, and passing. Their passing is very good, fizzed at each other - we don't tend to do that, when we do it comes from Taylor Richards and we cut through each time.
-
We had a free kick that kept rolling forward for Smith so think it was slightly in our favour but seems to be coming across the pitch more than end to end.

Both teams had seven shots though so perhaps we are making more of the possession when we have the ball.
-
Bloody hell... that was a nervy half. Lincoln are a very good side. Not dissimilar to us in their movement. But, we lead and it’s all to play for.
We looked a bit sloppy at times. First touch letting a few down and passes going astray. Brad Halliday uncharacteristically sloppy a few times. But we’ve got away with a few times when they’ve had chances.
Expect DM to figure it out.
A win here would be up there with “the Mansfield moment” albeit earlier in the season. It’s a six pointer.
-

Fixed for you mate.
-
I can’t cope with this
-
Seem to be having problems down right wing.John letting their winger have a lot of the ball.
-
We need to sort the back line, they're getting in behind us at will. Perhaps put James or Halliday in their FB position to at least close it down on one side.
-
yep I don't see how the score will stay the same unless we stop those runs in and around the box
-
HT 0-1
I would take a draw if offered right now :chair:
I'd take a 2-1 defeat the way it's going! Only joking, let's sneak a second!
-
Naz Premje, giving a half time report for BBC TV, said it's a good game ad Lincoln have a played a couple of dangerous balls across our box, but Balcombe hasn't "really been troubled". I hope it stays that way! He was very complimentary about Richards and the goal too,

Was thinking the same

Great save Balcombe

Fantastic defending.

This is gonna be a long half!

Posh losing aswell keep the results like this please.

I can’t watch, I’m off to change oil on the car

Just need Swindon to equalise.....

We need every man we can to defend this.

Think your doing them a disservice there. Lincoln have been by far the better team and coping with weather much better. We just seem to be doing too much individual stuff and not linking
-
This is gonna be a long half!
Having said that, the lads are working hard and limiting Lincoln's chances well. Superb team performance so far.
-
What a save!
-
Balcolme. Superb!!!
-
brilliant save
-
bloody hell , brilliant .
-
Well done Ellery.
-
Get in!!!!!
-
We need to get a foot hold in this game sharpish
-
??
-
What a great save ( it was not a pen) held on too.
-
Crewe just gone 1up v ipswich
Keeper always saving that from the moment it was given - he oozes confidence for a kid.
As soon as the ref (rightly) started watching for encroachment there was only one outcome if the shot was on target.
Vwry confident good save and well held too. GOOD LAD!
-
Bloody hell! The Gods do seem to be on pur side.....
Always a good sign that is...
BobG
-
We need a break away goal now, that would finish it.
-
Smith's work is enormous again. He's everywhere.
-
We look like a 4th tier team .... Not Championship pretenders
-
Subs needed
-
Told you I wasn't a fan of I player . Buffeted , saw replay of pen given then buffered till ball was on half way line laptop is off through window soon
-
This refs certainly letting a lot go. :laugh:
-
I think we are asking too much of our makeshift midfielders against opposition of this quality- we look like we can’t cope with them
-

-
Don’t know why T-R is taken off.
-
Is this ref bent? Yellow card for winning the ball for Big Tom?
-
Anderson booked.......for winning a tackle.
-
Don’t know why T-R is taken off.
That's a bit baffling. He's been our out ball and won a lot in the middle.
-
Nice to see Madger getting back.
-
Sorry. Should have read the thread first....
BobG
-
We've been poor going forward out wide today.
-
We need Sims as an option out wide.
-
We've been poor going forward out wide today.
But we've been fantastic at lots of other things. This is a superb performance.

Good shout that Barmby. He will make difference. A big difference.

He already is, Bob. Almost created a couple of things.
-
Is this ref bent? Yellow card for winning the ball for Big Tom?
Wonder if he saw a replay of the first half possible hand ball penalty shout and is trying to even things up?
-
Rochdale starting to warm up again too.....
BobG
-
I wonder if TR went off due to team play. I think I saw him pass the ball once.
I don't mind him being selfish and then scoring, but we seem to be having more possession now.
-

I'm confused Rob. I was commenting on Barmby's point about Sims. Has he materialised without the ref spotting him?! :):):)

Good keeping again by Ellery.

Great match, so entertaining. If we hang on and win this we’ll go up. So good for the team confidence.
-
Ipswich now square and Ennis has scored for Plymouth to tie the game with Accrington at the mo.
-
We're competing in the attacking half much more now
-
Riding our luck lately, can we count woodwork as a twelfth player?

Melt down by Balcombe after a superb performance
-
I wouldn't mind a jar of whatever it is that Shrewsbury have found. If they hold on for 5 more minutes, how many top teams is that thet they will have knocked over?
BobG
-
Kinnel.
-
OMG he’s saved another penalty
-
Ellery Balcome MOM? Definitely!
-
:woot: :woot: :woot: :boxing:

Amazing.

Wooooow!
-
what!!! can't believe this.
-
We've been poor going forward out wide today.
But we've been fantastic at lots of other things. This is a superb performance.
Aye but we've not had it stick enough up there which had allowed them to keep having chances and eventually having two penalties which they could possibly have won the game from!
-
Shades of Malcolm whatshisname at Rochdale then....
BobG
-
Amazing game. Deserve all the points here.
-
Only two Paul Crichton's, there's only two Paul cr..
-
3 extra mins.
-
Fate. When the Gods smile on you, grab it with both hands and dont stop to ask questions!
BobG
-
Only two Paul Crichton's, there's only'vtwo Paul cr..
To be fair I think Crichton saved the same penalty 3(?) times saving one goal
Balcombe has saved 2 :scarf:
-
Hey, we might win this!
-
Thank you Turnbull. Once again my memory proves it's lack of worth!!
BobG
-
I lost it and scared my kids she had one was saved, haha
-
Absolutely incredible. Rash, reckless, idiotic to concede but immediate redemption with the save.
-
Ellery Balcombe what a lad!!
-
Fate. When the Gods smile on you, grab it with both hands and dont stop to ask questions!

We've had it done to us enough times over the years eh Bob :lol:

-
Fantastic win but Lincoln are worth a few bob for promotion
-
Get in,what a win that is!
-
Massive win.
Reminded me a bit of that Zulu film.
-
3 points
-
Third as it stands
-
It's happening... we're going up this year.
-
That’s is a f**king result and a half.
What a day to top off a fantastic week
-
Great win lads, completely stressed out here, phew .
-
Need to go and lay down after that!
-
Awesome result! Great defending and man of the match performance by Balcombe! :scarf:
-
Absolutely incredible. Rash, reckless, idiotic to concede but immediate redemption with the save.
He just fancied a bit of penalty saving practice :woot:
-
no nails left
-
What have I missed
-
Such Impressive fitness levels both teams.
-
I haven’t been as nervous since Brentford. What a result.
-
What a performance that was. Every single player was just so up for it, knew their job and did it well. Lincoln were always looking to start fast and dominate and after Richards' goal in the 15th minute we just had to defend for our lives at times.
I can't pick a man of the match. They were all superb.
-
Well we've been outplayed, pulled all over the place, had two penalties against us and come away with three points. That'll do nicely
-
How the f**king hell did we win that
Madger was outstanding when he came on, and Ellery must be MoM for two pen saves
-
OMG that was so tense! I could hardly watch
-
I haven’t been as nervous since Brentford. What a result.
Yeah and that had an incredible penalty moment too.
-
Chuffin 'e'll. I need to lie down in a darkened room
-
The Admirable Crichton....
BRILLIANT WIN.
I don't think it was a foul by Balcombe looking at it again. Fine margins. Massive saves though. I reckon he's the best keeper we have had since Dieng. Maybe slightly better.
Madger - brilliant. The commentators were surprised taking Richards off but he'd lost his way. It's like a new signing to have Gomes back. We had been missing something between the holding midfielders and Fej and Madger linked that up really well.
Lincoln - by far the best side I've seen us play in the League this season. Appleton is a very good coach. And they play with speed and movement.
We rode our luck but what a defensive triumph. A couple of the lads a but off it today but holy sh*t th
at is a HUGE result.
-
how many keeprs save a penalty, give another penalty away and save that one too?
-
I’m in shock. That is one of the most incredible games I can remember. Lincoln won’t believe they lost that but every Rovers player deserves a medal.
As for Balcombe .... I have no words!
-
Madger was great when he came on.
It’s like having a new signing.
-
I’m exhausted! What a game had everything.Lincoln ere a very good side with lots of energy. Makes a change in such a game for things to go our way.long overdue.wow.
-
Defences win titles. Our defending of the box two poor tackles aside was superb and they played in front not behind us
-
Please please do not give DM manager of the month.
-
Oh... and Darren Bond... poor ref. Booked Tom for nothing and yet serial offences from Bridcutt and others and just books Edun (who looks a very good player).
-
Please please do not give DM manager of the month.
He is stitched on for that I’m afraid.
-
Number of tackles I’ve put in there I’ve got carpet burn
-
I need a drink...
That result is the mark of champions. Seriously. This is a real team of players who can go out and get the job done against anyone.
All those new players still to come in...
-
He cant possibly get it - we lost 4-0!!
-
Do we really only get 3 points for that win
-
Was it Samways who save 3 pens in a game (same pen 3 times). Has any other Rovers keeper save 2 in a game?

Or maybe he just isn’t aware of it. No need for Big Feys sarcastic reply. Even if it was said in jest.
I don’t know if available to you DMC, but there is a stream called “IFOLLOW”, you can pay a £10 fee every week and get to watch any game of your choice.
Alternatively, if you have a fire stick the games might be on there. I have used one abroad before when on holiday and it worked perfect.
