Fordy62 Posted May 22, 2021 Report Share Posted May 22, 2021 A game which will no doubt polarise OTIB, I’m sure there aren’t many of who don’t swing one way or the other no matter how mildly. My wife was born in Lincoln. So obviously, for that reason alone I’ll be behind the Imps. It’ll be nice to watch a game with some allegiance, but with none of the normal pressures I’d associate with watching City. Roll on 1530hrs and a nice pint of Weston’s Vintage and we’ll see who will earn the chance to take on Blackpool for the right to play us next season. COYI!

Bobbie Posted May 22, 2021 Report Share Posted May 22, 2021 Got a tenner on Bournemouth, Lincoln and Newport coming out on top. I’m not much of a gambler but I love the play offs and having a little bit of money on it makes it that much more interesting. Also, the narcissist in me is looking forward to watching the Sunderland meltdown if they don’t go up. Poor old Brent Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
mozo Posted May 22, 2021 Report Share Posted May 22, 2021 I'd be perfectly happy to see Lee Johnson back in the Championship, but my underdog imperative means that I want Lincoln to have their chance. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Poor old Brent I half watched the first leg and (mcGeay aside) it was Bristol City Mark II. I didn't think Sunderland ever looked like scoring. I fully expect the Makem's to last about 10 minutes before getting on the players backs. They'll be baying for LJ's head by half-time. I definately tuning into this one.

Calculus Posted May 22, 2021 Report Share Posted May 22, 2021 Definitely Lincoln and then don't mind between them and Blackpool. Both better days out than Sunderland. Also, when Sunderland finally do make it out of League 1 with their new owner and his money they'll be a much bigger threat than the other two.

E.G.Red Posted May 22, 2021 Report Share Posted May 22, 2021 Funniest thing about this game is the goalkeeper Josef Bursik playing on loan for Lincoln. Played on loan for Posh this season and helped them get promoted and now on loan at Lincoln and played well much to the annoyance of LJ who couldn't sign an emergency defender. Goalkeeper emergency loans being exempt from Player registration and loan limits. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
old_eastender Posted May 22, 2021 Report Share Posted May 22, 2021 Come on you IMPs ... will enjoy the Sunderland forum after if they get beat, LJ is already nearly as disliked as he was here - mind you that would all change if Sunderland got promoted I guess...
