MANCHESTER CITY AT HOME – EFL CUP QUARTER FINAL What are the chances? When we began this competition back in August against Peterborough and even more so as we entered the last few minutes against Millwall, the thought that we would once again be entertaining such illustrious opponents in the EFL Cup never entered my  [ more ]

MILTON KEYNES AWAY Our opponents At the start of every season When Saturday Comes invite a fan of every club bar one of the 92 to give their view on how they will do in the nine months ahead. The excluded club being Milton Keynes for reasons that many fans across the country will fully  [ more ]

SHREWSBURY AT HOME But first Josh Ruffels – I should have mentioned the lad in the previous FV. What a professional. What a loyal servant and still only 26 years old. Here’s to the next 200 games.

As for the Championship: almost no chance unless there’s new ownership and major investment. They last played at that level  [ more ]

EFL CUP ROUND THREE OXFORD UNITED 4 WEST HAM UNITED 0 It’s not very often, if ever, in the history of a football club that back to back performances like we produced at Lincoln and here are put together. They’re both right up there with the most memorable I’ve witnessed in my 50 plus years  [ more ]

LINCOLN AWAY Our Opponents Only a few years back I would say that OUFC were a bigger club than LCFC, quite a bit bigger. Now I’d argue that in the past few seasons we’ve fallen behind the team from Sincil Bank in terms of size. Or more accurately they’ve gone past us on the back  [ more ]
