That team can get a result

Probably as strong as we can be

Post by: Barmby Rover on November 15, 2025, 02:29:23 pm
That team can get a result

Which one? ;) I have a good feeling about this one, 1-3!

Hope you are correct.

Based on last Tuesday's game, I'd have gone for Nixon over Sterry.
Title: Re: Imps V TLOD
Post by: Barmby Rover on November 15, 2025, 02:36:50 pm
just backed Billy and Gibson to score. Fingers crossed!

Street to score anytime for sure . Nailed on.

Based on last Tuesday's game, I'd have gone for Nixon over Sterry.

I agree with this.  Hopefully Grant is trying to break Sterry in gradually and gives him just the 45mins like the last time out.

Street will play right side so playing a maybe not fully fit Maxwell there is a concern for me.
Street bigger and quicker than JM and they’ll aim for him.

Watching on Sky+ which is unusual for a 3pm kick off, but is on due to the International Break.

Ironside has scored for Tranmere.

We've started well. Gibson with the only real chance but under-hit it.

Gifted us a big decision there by disallowing a Street goal. I'd be fuming if that decision went against us.

We got away with one there - Street penalised as he heads home but soft foul called

The game is set up nicely and is getting lively. Ref is a clown though.

Playing balls over the top for Billy sharp

Ffs McCann this can’t be the tactics surely
Title: Re: Imps V TLOD
Post by: ChrisBx on November 15, 2025, 03:31:53 pm
Far too much time to get the cross in. Shite.
Title: Re: Imps V TLOD
Post by: Dutch Uncle on November 15, 2025, 03:32:14 pm
Lincoln look a very good side IMHO
Title: Re: Imps V TLOD

Nice to see Gibson busting a gut to stop the cross………..
Title: Re: Imps V TLOD

They have learned keep crossing it and they will win
Title: Re: Imps V TLOD

Nothing to come today wrong tactic again one up front totally isolated.

Expect Lincoln to push on now
Title: Re: Imps V TLOD
Post by: goalkick on November 15, 2025, 03:34:51 pm
May be wrong but seems one way traffic to me.thy are winning most balls but let’s hope things will happen for us.
Title: Re: Imps V TLOD
Post by: Barmby Rover on November 15, 2025, 03:35:42 pm
Rovers have gone to very long odds now, the bookies know what we're like coming from behind.
Title: Re: Imps V TLOD
Post by: Cramby10 on November 15, 2025, 03:36:50 pm
I’ll be surprised if Pearson comes back out after the break. He doesn’t look fit to me. At all!
Title: Re: Imps V TLOD
Post by: Blue Green Algae on November 15, 2025, 03:37:03 pm
Gibson appears to have defaulted to his not playing Bradford setting. Wasteful in possession and half arsed attempts at defending.
Title: Re: Imps V TLOD
Post by: CottyRover on November 15, 2025, 03:37:23 pm
I was late checking the score. It was 0-0. Next thing I know, it's one nil to them.  Perhaps I'd better stay off the Internet!

We've completely lost any control of the game in the last 5-10 mins. We need to get to HT without conceding another.
Title: Re: Imps V TLOD
Post by: jmt23 on November 15, 2025, 03:39:15 pm
Stronge,  faster and more aggressive . We look a division apart.
Title: Re: Imps V TLOD
Post by: roversdaft on November 15, 2025, 03:39:28 pm
How many times are we going to start with this f***ing formation and see the same result week in week out.

It’s a counter attacking set up with a 39 year old on his own up top
Title: Re: Imps V TLOD
Post by: Donnybax on November 15, 2025, 03:40:13 pm
I think we've been alright so far. We look very suspect from crosses though

Can we have Middleton on for Gibbo please ⚽️
Title: Re: Imps V TLOD

Yeah for me the formation just doesn’t work anymore, this is my only gripe with Grant that he sticks to this all the time.

Formation is fine but there's no pace up top when Sharp plays. That's the clear weakness again today. Their defenders have too long to play it out.
Title: Re: Imps V TLOD
Post by: Sammy Chung was King on November 15, 2025, 03:52:03 pm
If they win by two they go top. I fancy us to come from behind and win 2-1.
Title: Re: Imps V TLOD
Post by: jmt23 on November 15, 2025, 03:53:20 pm
Two to three red cards waiting to happen now. Maxwell who is miles away from the pace of Street, Broadbent who has been woeful today.

BUT I would be digging in to the Lincoln lad Collins, he has such a short fuse and will not be able to refuse a dig at someone.
Title: Re: Imps V TLOD
Post by: Filo on November 15, 2025, 03:53:56 pm
We need to take our chances Billy should have scored, how often are we saying that these days? We are conceding possession cheaply and at times a resorting to hoofball to a 39 year old forward with no pace
Title: Re: Imps V TLOD
Post by: Thorney on November 15, 2025, 03:57:27 pm
Lincoln starting to hack molyneux down whenever he's got the ball.
They know where our biggest threat can come from.

They just have a few better players who are quicker a d more powerful than we have. Stfeet being prime example.

Hopefully we come out firing in the 2nd half.

Title: Re: Imps V TLOD
Post by: Lesonthewest on November 15, 2025, 03:59:24 pm
Really good header for their goal, but while we allow teams to cross as easy as that we will concede goals. We must be one of the worst teams in the league for allowing time & space for opponents to cross the ball under no pressure.
Title: Re: Imps V TLOD
Post by: ChrisBx on November 15, 2025, 04:00:14 pm

I think we'll be in the bottom 4 come January.

Post by: Usher wide. on November 15, 2025, 04:01:20 pm
We’re lucky not to be 2-0 down. I saw nothing wrong with Street’s ‘goal’, certainly no push if that was the reason to disallow.
Title: Re: Imps V TLOD
Post by: Jersey Rover on November 15, 2025, 04:01:31 pm
Same,Same. Nothing aggressive up top. Billy is a poacher needs some help. Will wait till 60 th minute and replace him with Hanlan who will get all the stick. We’re so predictable.
Title: Re: Imps V TLOD
Post by: scawsby steve on November 15, 2025, 04:04:37 pm
Always the same. Nice, slick football for about 20 minutes. Then the opponents realise we can't score goals, and can't defend  crosses.

Lincoln will pepper us with crosses all the second half.
Title: Re: Imps V TLOD
Post by: ChrisBx on November 15, 2025, 04:05:59 pm
No changes at HT.
Title: Re: Imps V TLOD
Post by: roversdaft on November 15, 2025, 04:06:11 pm
Sharp was brought in to take over from Ironside at the 65/70 minute mark to kill games off.

Instead he’s starting and doesn’t have the engine nor the pace unfortunately
Title: Re: Imps V TLOD
Post by: Pancho Regan on November 15, 2025, 04:13:11 pm
Get Hanlan on to play up top with Billy.

Deary me. That's shocking. All came from Gibson not playing a simple 3 yard pass inside and giving away the throw. We've worked so hard to get back into the game and then do something absolutely stupid a minute later. So frustrating.
Title: Re: Imps V TLOD
Post by: dknward2 on November 15, 2025, 04:31:14 pm

Gotts OG but far too weak from Pearson and, I think, Maxwell beforehand.

Have you ever seen a team miss as many chances as us. If the Lincoln keeper came and sat on the bench we still wouldn't score.

FT. Not our worst performance but the horrible run continues.
Title: Re: Imps V TLOD
Post by: Sammy Chung was King on November 15, 2025, 04:56:26 pm
Disappointing loss, got back in it then can’t hold steady and build momentum. We definitely need an injection of quality in all areas.
Title: Re: Imps V TLOD

TLT should have come out for that

Come on rovers get on and attack

Just re-watched the goal and no way should timmy be coming for it. Enough defenders under it to deal with that.

TLT not at fault for anything today
