Recent Results

Alas i haven't been to any games this week.but here's a couple of results of interest (well to me anyway)

Friendly match
Lincoln city 0-2 Sheffield United

Linc's shield semi final
Lincoln United 1-4 Boston united

Champions league qualifying third round 1st leg
Sparta Prague 3-1 Panathinaikos 1


i didn't go to watch the Imps v Blades match last night, by the sounds of it i didn't miss a great deal.The Blades just missed out on promotion to the premiership so i wasn't expecting us to get a result against them in all honesty.unlike Arsenal they played there strongest side against us and on the plus side (according to the Lincolnshire echo) we gave as good as we got.but still looked a little light upfront. although given the quality of the blades defence i am not surprised that we didn't rip them to bits at the back time and time again
although some views on various message boards are all doom and gloom because we haven't beaten two champions league football playing sides and a side that were 90 mins away from the premiership i am not to worried. yes the squad is a little thin on the ground but 90% of the teams in our league have smaller squads than the last couple of years.plus we can always use the loan market once the season starts.i still think we will bring another couple of players in before the season starts though.
The champions league reaches the 3rd qualifying round tonight Celtic have there hands more than full with Dynamo Moscow, other games i like the look of are

Sporting v FC Twente
Sheriff v Slavia Prague

the losers of these games get nothing, no back doors into the europa league (UFEA cup) no payoffs not even there bus fair home!
