Exactly that. The high of Saturday followed by the gutwrenching outcome on Tuesday has taken its toll.Iโm kind of dreading tonight - not because I feel we have to get into the playoffs, but because itโs suddenly within reach despite our mishaps
Mcguane was awful when he came on v ImpsAgreed on that. Feel sorry for McGuane - he seems a bit lost at the moment and needs time to get himself back to form.
Agree to disagree. They resorted to bringing him down ( one was sent off). He at least ran at them.Don't agree. Thought he was disappointing on Tuesday.
Hard-fought but ultimately comfortable home win.
Lincoln to scrap their way to a 1-0 lead at Whaddon Road. But then, in the 96th minute (of just 5 added minutes) a hopeful punt upfield from Cheltenham (attacking the away end) is met with a poor headed connection from a thug of a Lincoln CB, that somehow spins off his gigantic dome and behind him.
Suddenly, Matty Taylor (playing off said brute's shoulder), peels away and is bearing down on goal. The Keeper (fresh from the two minutes it just took him to take a goal kick) commits early, sliding to the ground as Taylor lifts it over him - whereby is takes an eternity but nestles cutely in the back of the net for a crucial equaliser.
Matty streams away running alongside the away end with his fore-finger to his lips. He comes to stop at the corner flag, rips off his Cheltenham shirt and reveals a t-shirt on which he has hand-scrawled 'UP THE F*CKING OX' in marker pen. He stands, arms out-stretched, mobbed by his team-mates, as the Lincoln fans clamber over each other to scream obscenities at him as their play-off hopes lie in ruins.
I don't think we have overly missed him given how well Long has played. Long is also more of a threat attacking set pieces, has Moore even scored this season?
I am sick of these safe, generic predictions that are made so the originator can claim to be โrightโ whenever anything happens.Hard-fought but ultimately comfortable home win.

Surely Moore is far more if a threat at dead balls?I

Yeah you've also got Aaron Pressley if he plays who is a 6'4" striker, so again those are the kind of players Moore has much more chance of being competitive in the air with.Surely Moore is far more if a threat at dead balls?
Put it this way we normally aim at Moore and on Tuesday quite often were aiming at Brown in his absence.
We had plenty if corners Tuesday and hardly won anything in the air.
Absolutely agree. Nothing like itI'm looking forward to it, huge game under the lights, my favourite type of game!
Let's ave it!!!

I am.not saying he was a game changer but to me caused more of a problem than some before ( not that it was that difficult!)
Weโve conceded one goal in two games since he was out so not sure how much weโve missed him defensively!Agreed, if Moore is fit, he has to play. We've missed him massively, not just in defence, but attacking set pieces too
Me too Eric - it has been my first word of choice for a while now.I got Wordle in one today. It was my starting word which I have used since the beginning.
This means it's my lucky day and we will tonk Stevenage 8-0 in a display of samba football.
Thatโs because the corners were awful and to close to the keeperSurely Moore is far more if a threat at dead balls?

Spot on buddyI'm not worried at all.
If we can't win tonight, we don't deserve the play offs.
They generally have been all season, far too many floated inThatโs because the corners were awful and to close to the keeper
