Title: Lincoln game?
Post by: Alan Southstand on November 06, 2025, 05:29:00 pm
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

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.

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.
