The way ahead 2009-10


The fixture list for next season has on the face of it been kind to the Imps.Personally i would have rather been away than at home first game up, however we have been given Barnet at home which is a decent first game and with a trip to Accrington stanley to follow there is a chance for us to start the season with two wins on the trot.

Both the Lincolnshire derbys are on Saturdays with Grimsby visiting lincoln in first in November and we travel to the land of the cod a week after Valentine's day! lets just hope we do better there than last years 5-1 gut wrenching defeat.

If i could have had any fixture at anytime i would have picked Notts County away to be middweek.... And it is!!! so its two days of work, an all day session around Nottingham before the game, Hooters pre and post game, the best stadium in league two and more than likly a curry after the game and drunken phone calls late into the night no dout!!! oh and a good game of football between to teams than will be hopeing for a better season than last roll on April the 13th 2010!

We have the last game of the season at home to big keiths Maccelsfield town which would be interesting if we are fighting for anything on the last day. Boxing day sees the Imps host Chesterfield then travel to newly promoted Burton Albion for the first game of 2010.

Torquay way has the potential to be a weekend away falling at the end of March as has Barnet at the end of January (only one will be done though)

Maccelsfield away is a good away day to go to on the train due to the number of pubs en route form the train station up to the football ground so that could well be on my hit list (unless it gets switiched due to the England game the same day) the last away game is at Aldershot so that well could get a visit form the Retford imps if we are still "in the hunt"

full fixture list can be found on the imps website (see link on right)
