Brannaghan? Really. I thought that he was in the top 3 players on the pitch

He’s certainly very tidy in that role, passed the ball nicely, kept it ticking over and broke up play well. I thought he was decent

 

[bazzer9461]

Yep. Because we are mid table canon fodder

We are but anything is possible and if rlwenget to the play offs I hope it’s at Mapps expense

 

[Big Ronaldo]

Effin get in! A win... A big win.
That needed guts and we had it large tonight.
Hard ruckin yards boys.
All earned with grit spit and sweat.
Well done.

 

[unification]

In retrospect that was more stressful than it actually was. We managed the second half well and kept them at bay. That patched up defence deserves a lot of praise.

Both sides looked like shattered prize fighters at the end. Just controlling the ball looked a massive effort. I thought KR’s use of the youthful energy of LCP was good. He kept Lincoln moving and that’s what we needed to do to tire them more.

Great to see Taylor amongst the goals again too.

Big 3 points. Still a big ask but we're not giving up on these playoffs. Every single player that started that game except Hanson with a 7/10 minimum performance. Forde did well after the forced change. Henry nearly back to last seasons form. A note for LCP too - think he looked like a natural league 1 CM. Broke up the play a few times, pressured their midfield and won it back too. Reckon he should be fighting the first team next season (not literally, although I reckon he could take Kelly!). Pressure is on Blackpool and Donny, and the chasing pack now to get a result tomorrow. 3 points and now off to go and play the new Monster Hunter game; perfect Friday night!

Is the season still over?

Still think this is a smidge too late to be brutally honest.

 

[IsleofWightYellow]

We make fun of ‘amazing’ Lincoln but they still have 6 points more than us having played the same about of games. That’s like us having won this one, as well as beating Northampton and Blackpool. Think we’d all be claiming that we’re pretty ‘amazing’ if that had happened...

 

[Symp59]

That was tremendous alot of good performances Hanson did well second half. Cam everywhere he's certainly got his fitness back . Barker good ,Forde good. The center backs my players of the season. Great finish class is permanent 6 more wins needed. Bad news Ruffles injured that could be his season over ,let's hope not . And some lovel stuff from Henry . And well done Karl you take the flack when we lose you deserve the praise for the win.

 

[IsleofWightYellow]

Is the season still over?

It was never over if we started winning games. Can’t really afford to drop many more points still though...

 

[Eaststanding]

Hugely important result, why oh why couldn’t they manage even half of that effort and attitude last Tuesday .
The hope continues for another week.

We are naive. One team has a thinking manager. We have a very wobbly scouser screaming from start to finish.

That victory is for wobbly screamers everywhere, f**k thinkers!

 

[BigCrompy]

Who would win in a 100m dash between Winnall and Mackie, and would the race finish in the 90 minutes of a match?

My money’s STILL on Hampshire Nan.

 

[Ocracokeox]

Good result that.
Really enjoyed it

 

[Bath Yellow]

Great win. So annoyed not able to watch it, bloody Sky, thought their had been an agreement that they were going to allow ifollow to stream it after complaints that st holders of both sides had paid for the match.

 

[IsleofWightYellow]

I thought KR’s use of the youthful energy of LCP was good. He kept Lincoln moving and that’s what we needed to do to tire them more.

I thought LCP looked very good and I’d like to see more of him

 

[Nadi-]

Give the guy a break.....he’s not a left back, but giving 100% for his team mates

A fair few blinkered critics on here,
Thought he done a job there tonight.
Plenty point out him pushed up for their goal. But not one mention about a very important block 2nd half.

 

[RyanioBirdio]

Just got off a conference call that took up the whole of the second half.

Matty Taylor is a sex god

SHOWER BEER TIME.

 

[IsleofWightYellow]

Hanson actually played a lot better at left back! He seemed to like cutting inside and using his right foot to pass it.

 

[Scotchegg]

We are naive. One team has a thinking manager. We have a very wobbly scouser screaming from start to finish.

Wasn't it great seeing the Wobbly Scouser get one over the Thinking Manager?!

 

[Mellowyellow]

Fantastic result all round OUFC!
