Lincoln City 2-2 Blackpool: Stats, Highlights & Views From The Forum

|

Views from hulloutpost following Saturday’s 2-2 draw at home against Blackpool in League One: “Blackpool 2 up, coasting and should have had further goals but for some tremendous last-ditch defending. Then BAM, two tremendous finishes out of the blue and a very unexpected point.

Whatever you say, the attitude of the squad is top-notch and it is noticeable recently how much more effective we look when we have to raise the pace of the game for whatever reason.

When we get pressed and don’t move the ball quickly enough we look a bit of a soft touch at times, but when we do move it quickly and accurately it’s like a different side. Not enough of the latter today but Blackpool are a good side, in great form. Our lads earned themselves a break after a very trying couple of months, due to great spirit and some flashes of quality.

Take heart from that, hopefully the players do and kick on accordingly.”

More views from the Match Thread:

JT_LCFC: “Great character today, hanging in. Given we had one training session in two weeks, not got a bad bunch have we.”

Luke Imp: “A good point today all things considered.

I tell you what, looking at the L1 table, you think we’re in bad form then you see Doncaster who’ve bombed down to mid-table despite being up around us not long back. Accrington have fallen off the edge of a cliff as well and going back a little bit further, Crewe and Plymouth were sniffing PO’s at one point and are now down in 15th and 16th.”

Rasenimp: “Pretty awesome point – as said here it does show the bottle and mentality because I’d basically given up at 2-0. A good sign that even though we’ve gone off the boil for a variety of reasons, players still have something in them!”
