Great place to visit as well

Dark horses... or contenders.. should we be worried..

No

They only beat Southend today. Any team can do that surely.

Like we did in May

 

[Julio]

Luton mark 2

 

[PS]

Buy their best player.
Win-win.

He does like a good shout at the match officials, their manager. There's a few people on here that know him quite well.

Contenders definitely

 

[McMackem]

Last year Peterborough started strong and faded away, I wonder if Lincoln have decent cover across the positions- but it is certainly a strong start for them and they don't look like there is much of a chance of them being out of their depth at this level. Early days though.

 

[Gone Troppo]

Contenders definitely

Business end of season and squad depth will sort them out
Can't see any of current top six with depth of us Pompey & Ipswich.
I had been known to be wrong.

 

[The Situation]

With all due to respect to Lincoln, if a club like ours with the resources and squad we have can’t finish above them, then we might as well give up.

Not a great away day, most pubs don’t allow away fans. Away fans get allocated a spoons well away from the ground. Beautiful city though

 

[Grammar Police]

Three games.

Watch them end up mid table.

Nothing like an SMB overreaction based on minimal data.

 

[Bears Beets]

Took them at 20/1 each way on my season bet.

Hope they keep it up.

 

[McGregor]

At the start of the season I couldn't understand why they were fancied to be challenging up top. Now I'm starting to see. But they have to play us, pompey, Rotherham etc yet so we will see then.

 

[Kumbuka]

They could do a Luton like last year but they’ll probably fade away a bit.

I wouldn’t compare them to Peterborough though. This time last year they were winning games through unsustainable score lines like 3-2 week after week. Lincoln however have been solid and for 3 (4 if you include the cup) clean sheets on the bounce.

They won at Rotherham last week

 

[McGregor]

Well there you go. And I think Rotherham have been looking good too. They'll not keep up this up all season like, but I expect to see them around top 6-8.

Football doesn’t always work like that, though.

You only have to look at Luton last season.

 

[safcmackem]

too early to tell which way they'll go

Saying this yesterday... this season's Luton and shows how you can just as easy go up the leagues with momentum as opposed to us who came crashing through them!

Yes. They are top right now after all. You don't get to be top by being very poor.
