So, the dust has settled and we know where we are heading next season. Some very long journeys await (given in round trips):

To summarise, that makes 6,446 miles to be covered; time to be spent sitting in a car/coach: 123 hours 4 minutes.

That represents an increase of 792 miles, or an extra 12 hours 38 minutes, compared to this season.

Last season we had 8 destinations within 100 miles of Lincoln; next season there are just 5.

Obviously an increase in travel costs for the club (and fans), and more overnight stays required. Also means far fewer visiting fans, also taking into account that three of the best supported visiting teams (Luton, Cambridge and Chester) have gone.

We really need a great season to make up for the financial aspect of all this.
