Views from Luke Imp following today’s 1-1 draw away at Forest Green Rovers in League One: “No damage done today, so a decent point in that respect. Obviously, a game we should be winning but with MK, Oxford, and Cheltenham coming up there are other opportunities to take decent steps to safety, which I think will be mid-40’s.
Given that it’s only two points to 11th with one, two or three games in hand on others it does feel like we’re drawing our way into a relatively comfortable mid-table position. Just need to get there before the Posh, Wednesday and Plymouth games come along!”

More views from our Match Thread:
hulloutpost: “Not an enjoyable listen and having squandered first half control didn’t deserve more than a point, but at least we maintain the unbeaten run. If nothing else these types of game serve to highlight what we need to address for next season.”
LA_Imp: “A disappointing point, but still a point. I really cannot understand why we seem unable to put away clearly inferior sides yet can go toe to toe with league leaders. Instead of flat track bullies we are thoroughbred thrashers. Oh well, stay safe Imps and enjoy the rest of your weekend.”
imps_joe: “Just confirms what we already knew.
We’re very inconsistent and struggle against the poorer teams.
Makings of a good team, but too much deadwood that will need addressing in the summer.”
