Lincoln City 2-0 Cheltenham Town: Post-Match Reaction & Match Stats

|

Views from PerthImp following the 2-0 win at home versus Cheltenham Town in League One: “Shame. A game of football was definitely ruined by a lack of intensity allied to being dragged into their standard of football, and to one of the worst refereeing performances I have ever seen, in 54 years of watching the game. Yes he interpreted the rules, but he clearly doesn’t understand what the game of football is about. Man shouldn’t even be refereeing league games. No more to say.”

More views from the Match Thread:

PortMacImp: “Three valuable points, a horrible game out of the way and hopefully we won’t see that abysmal referee again. Good to see Danny Mandroiu back again and now on to the next game.”

Scotimp: “I haven’t seen the game but sometimes the lack of ability of one of the teams can be the common denominator. We got through it without being the first team to have Cheltenham score against them and we have the three points to take us back into the top ten with a game in hand on six of those above us. That’ll do nicely.”

Red Wimp: “Not much to add 2nd half on the football front although would like to see the disallowed goal again in real time it didn’t feel offside.

Listening to Lasse you do have to remember we lost a 2-0 lead already this season so I think subconsciously that was on our minds rather than going all out for a 3rd.”
