It appears Lincoln have until Sunday evening to decide whether our game will go ahead. I guess that depends on
1. Their 3 players get call-up’s
2. Injuries and/or suspensions after this Saturday’s fixture.
As far as GM is concerned they’re preparing for it being on. But, of course, we have Barnsley then Bradford games to think about.
We have Crew and Grehan away on duty after Saturday, so Tuesday’s defence is going to be interesting (with no Grehan). Sterry has been pencilled in for a return in the Bradford game (good news).
-
I'm with an Imps season ticket holder now and he's just mentioned this. Apparently their game during the last International break was off. He'll be away watching England so naturally he's hoping our fixture won't go ahead.
-
Grant was at the Recent Bradford City v Lincoln game. Maybe two birds with one stone. By all accounts both teams were poor on the night.
-
Lincoln have the following three players on 4 bookings , Darikwa , House, McGrandles . Darikwa got sent off on Saturday but that was in the FA Cup match, so a booking on Saturday vs Rotherham means they’ll miss the next league match

If it is on then you can watch on Sky + as it is international break weekend. All games will be available.

Darikwa will miss this weeks game as he got sent off for 2 yellows,I’m sure Lincoln will want to play it at the minute the way we are playing but like others have said will all depend on how this weekend games go
-
My thought is if they will play the call up card if one or two of the players on 4 cards gets booked. Also I thought FA Cup and league bookings are different
-
Just bought mine. Still not sold out yet

I rang the ticket office on the off chance on Tuesday morning and was told we'd been allocated an additional 200odd tickets so I grabbed a pair.
Not seen a league game at Sincil Bank since we got back into the league. In fact it was March 1996 the last time I saw Rovers in the league in my home city and iirc we were 3-0 at half time, it ended 4-0.

Yellows are but if you get a red because of 2yellows you miss the next game.
-
Is the game on ?
-
Game is on. Their manager thinks so anyway.
-
Nice one. Day off work, ticket purchased, three big points …………?
-
Clearly we are not on a good run of form but our recent record at Sincil Bank is excellent.
Last 5 games there in all competitions has seen us win 4 and draw 1. In fact, in those 5 games Lincoln have only score one (1) goal.
Remarkably, we last tasted defeat there in the appalling 97/98 season and even then it was only 2-1.
-
There’s no more tickets available, sold out.
-
Confirmed. Game's on.

The landlord of the Stags Head is a Rovers fan. He's stated that some of the pubs in the centre don't allow Rovers fans.

I'm going to this game with a couple of Lincoln mates. One of them has a lad who does some work for Lincoln and got us free tickets. So, I'll be in the players lounge area before the game.... which will be different..

Been in there before, didn't know that. Long walk to SB from there though. And that's if most people can be arsed to take on the steep hill to get there.
-
Do Lincoln enforce allocated seating ?

He's not had it that long tbf, couple of months or so.
-
It’s due to absolutely bang it down all day tomorrow and right through to Saturday afternoon
-
Do Lincoln enforce allocated seating ?
They didn't last time to my knowledge, and even if they do, it's rare that it doesn't fall on its arse as soon as people start entering in larger groups.
-
Allocated seating is soooo 2010s
-
Do Lincoln enforce allocated seating ?
No. Looks like it's not maxed out tickets either a bit like the south stand exactly because of this.
-
Any chance that this will be off there was always plenty of drainage around Sincil Bank but there’s a lot of rain come down
-
Weather warning in place all day today and all day tomorrow in Lincs for heavy rain . And living in Lincs I can confirm there is a lot of standing water around right now.
-
Thanks NR
-
Yep, loads of standing water and still chucking it down! :turd:
-
We should have been at Cleethorpes golf club on Sunday but it has been cancelled due to flooding there.
-
Looking at the forecast for Lincoln. Rain up to 9am then none. Also percentage of rain lowering through the night. Boston where I live rain till midday. Hopefully, as Lincoln wanted to play this game they have took precautions with knowing the weather. Nothing on there website for any concerns.
-
Zero chance this gets called off. No rain tomorrow barely
-

Have a look at the met office rain radar. Run the sequence for the next 18 hours .
-

From Ricky C on X, Lincoln aren't anticipating any issues.
-
Maybe as I said earlier they might have put measures in place to make sure it’s on. Only time will tell
