It's the sort of game Hamer just grabs and wins you single handedly

Hell of a lot will rest on him this season

 

[BigBed]

Mind over matter. Osborne needs to rub his groin. Jebbison needs to play threw the illness if he ever wants a spot.

And you know what the illness is do you!?
And its OSBORN as you seem to know very little about most things.

 

[Woodthorpe blade]

On the plus side, Everton look gash.

And its 1 nil to Donny. Well deserved as well

 

[knowsnowt]

53 years a Blade and this is what i get for it. I'm done.

 

[knowsnowt]

44 changes at half time.

[jt64]

Marsh freed

 

[Woodthorpe blade]

Brooks injured?

 

[10p]

Joe Ironside with the goal too

Just a bit offside though.

 

[loyalblade95]

Brooks injured?

According to BBC sport match thread yes, Archer just had a shot saved as well.

Blue? Get to fuck!

 

[Bookers boots]

Radio Lincoln commentators just said The Blades supporters turned up expecting an easy victory! When was the last time that happened?

It's fkn torture watching this

 

[Tony_Kaufman]

This is crap.

 

[fintious maximus]

Like a pre-season friendly which I suppose they’re treating it as

 

[carthesis]

based on the radio commentary and the updates here, not being able to find a stream might have been a blessing in disguise

 

[PeterNdlovu081]

Harrogate 0-8 Blackburn

 

[Yarrayering]

Egan 50 pence head..

 

[Hamandcheese]

5 mins left and we're still barely able to get within 40 yards of their goal

Great stuff

 

[Tony_Kaufman]

Fair play this is far from our best eleven, but that was a strong starting line up other than Brooks and Coulibaly. What's Slimane done wrong to not come on, and is Tom Davies injured already (no shock if he was given Hecky's track record), as he would surely have benefitted from some minutes for fitness?

 

[Berkshire Blade]

Some players are not going to play much at all if we don't win this shootout once we get a settled side it's hard to break into one in the premier league

 

[s4-blade]

Our youth team held a men’s first team to a draw. Fair play

 

[United Aren't Back.]

Their fans are really getting on my fucking wick. Chat population of Lincoln , still, it cuts down on the muggings
rapes
child abduction
animal abuse
and robbery in sunny Lincoln until about midnight.

We're just not very good at football!

 

[designedbyross]

Radio commentary making it sound like a good game, 0.37 xG each, garbage. Desperately need some creative and ball carrying midfielders in before the window shuts.

 

[XADE]

We don't need to be in this competition, it means zero. Miss the lot for me.

Erm, what?

 

[HarryHaslam]

Ah well

 

[paidsy]

Meltdown incoming no doubt...
