Davide Somma certainly staked a claim for the need for the Imps to break the Bank to land him with two superb finishes to save our Lincolnshire Bacon. The top sides in League two all posses 20 goal men, who can win a game that you scarcely deserve to be in let alone come away with all three points. And that we did with Davide bringing Herd the Aussie assassin`s flick under his spell in the twenty-third minute. He roasted his man and bore down the middle before waiting for Jalal to sell himself allowing him to slam a cannon ball straight down the middle of the goal. Mmmmm suits you sir!

Oh but the completion of the brace would be so much better as a grand stand finish at the Bank all but bade bye bye to Blue Square oblivion. With 7 goals in 9 games in season 125 Sutton has unearthed a Graver, a Jock Dodds, nay a goal machine all of Impdoms very own if Imps dreams can indeed come true. If Somma signs season Tickets will sell themselves methinks.

Bournemouth a clever side with craft, guile and wee Igoe always eager to distribute the goodies could not believe their luck; as Birch, a poor final touch and some woeful finishing denied them a half time leveller. But all of Impdom would stand against them as Baker and Both the Co Op and Stacey West Stands roared the young chargelings on as news filtered through of some scary news abroad. Grimsby, Torquay and Cheltenham were all beating their opponents with the latter two hammering the opposition as our arch nemesis Fletcher entered the fray. Just as he came on we failed to adjust at the freekick. Wiggins fizzed across a superb delivery and Pitman glanced home a beauty.

The Cherries continued to throw the kitchen sink at the Imps as we struggled to even get out of our own half. Then Clarke Keltie repaid his 3 month deal with a delectable chipped pass to Somma the only player staying forward. Davide allowed it to come over his shoulder before shaping to half volley a humdinger in off the bar at the home end. And they danced all day at the house of Imp. A simply massive goal; memorable, magical and perhaps priceless as Cheltenham beat Bury 5-2, Torquay trounced top dogs Dale 5-0 and the Cods castrated the Bulls 1-0. Barnet faired poorly at home, losing 1-2 to Simmo`s in form Macclesfield who are now above Bradford on 49 points with relegation a thing of the past. Certainly the Imps are not yet out of things but if we had lost today sitting 22nd on 43 points would have looked a whole lot worse.


17 Macclesfield 41 -8 49
18 Bradford 41 -9 49
19 Lincoln City 41 -19 46
20 Barnet 40 -9 45
21 Torquay 41 0 44
