Tipps69 Posted February 18, 2017 Share Posted February 18, 2017 Instead of having 11 kids come out with the players as mascots, they had 11 'oldies' come out with the players & do the hand shakes with the Lincoln players. A very nice touch. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

RedM Posted February 18, 2017 Share Posted February 18, 2017 Another thing Burnley did was this, not seen it done anywhere else before. Their shop manager saw us looking and came over to chat to us. He says they do it for every visiting team to try to be welcoming to the fans. Burnley have a new shop, only opened this season and the manager was rightly very pleased with it. We thought this was lovely gesture and told him so, he was positively bursting with pride bless him! Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

I saw him just now on MOTD and he was magnanimous in his admiration on Lincoln City saying he'd played in a cup run himself beating teams from higher up and understood what it took and meant.
