Re: Lincoln Thread
 

Don't get to see too many games but saw this one and it was a pretty dull game to be honest though if any of our players could shoot straight we'd have won. Lincoln had a lot of joy down our left and had their right winger been able to cross the ball we could have been in trouble. Still, a point here is better than we usually do. Good to meet Yon Mon and Redraine.

Re: Lincoln Thread
 

Good point teach,I thought that during the match,Jacobson was done for pace on at least six occasions only for the winger not to deliver a telling cross.
Would imagine it was noted by the manager and would be addressed ( midfielders helping to double up).
Going forward he was ok,but on another day it would have cost Acci as we never converted our chances.

Re: Lincoln Thread
 

A little unfair IMO. Granted he "lost" his man a few times but usually recovered well to get a block in. By the way, was it you that Deano came across to speak with at the final whistle?

Re: Lincoln Thread
 

Redraine,I wasnt critising Jacobson as there 2 wide men were rapid,but he was done for pure pace ( 3 in the first half and 3 in the second),The question you have to ask is who was helping him !!!.
Thats why i thought Edwards had a good game( and Hessey) and there positional sense gave the winger nothing to aim at,and when he went to the far post,Deano headed it away,good defending all round really.
Yes it was me talking to Deano at the end,just giving him his usually bollocking lol

Re: Lincoln Thread
 

Sorry Redraine,you should introduce yourself next time,its nice to put faces to web names

Re: Lincoln Thread
 

Will do, but I'm not sure I would recognise the back of your head again! perhaps you have an old blue and white scarf you could wear?:D
I think part of the problem with our full backs is that they don't get much practice in training against young, lightning fast black guys?

Re: Lincoln Thread
 

Dont know about chasing young black lads,you must not have watched a lot of academy football !!!,Deano spent 9 years chasing them,Wellbeck,Brandy,Adjose at utd and Sturridge at City to name a few.
May start wearing my wigan scarf from our northern prem league days,when we had 1500 watching.
Springfield park had a load of characters and our own mud slide for the away spectators.
These modern day supporters have never roughed it !!!!.
If you get time go on you tube and type in sunderland-wigan mud slide !,those were the days.
Thats why me and my mates love Acci,its like wigan was years ago,some famous outings,just like you lads have now

"Accrington's play off campaign looks over after they drew 0-0 at Lincoln."

Of course, it's too much to expect those country bumpkins to be able to do the maths.:)
