I note that Deji Elerewe turns out for Lincoln V WHU tonight.
I didn't think he looked bad on his few Charlton appearances back in 2021? A view not shared by my son and heir btw.0 -
Hamer sent off for Lincoln after 3 minutes. Game over I guess.0

He was our clown wasn't he?
Derby struggling again0 -
McGrandles adding to their woes. Just shows that players don't think & just instinctively do things.EugenesAxe said:wtf lincoln0 -
“Watford manager Alessio Dionisi will remain in charge for the Championship clash with Charlton on Saturday, talkSPORT understands.
Watford will not make another managerial change with Dionisi set to be given at least one more game.”
Watford owners have said if you can’t get a result against Charlton you must be proper sh*t.22 -
It makes me wonder just how much these professional fowls are coached into players, is it to the point of overriding any common sense?golfaddick said:

Both correct calls but can’t help but think that cards that early just ruin a game of football2

Always got an eye on the relegation fight at the end of the season, so it’s good to see Lincoln’s goal difference take a battering9

Lincoln have now let in 9 goals in 2 games, which has destroyed their GD.
Another bad defeat for Derby. Really surprising how poor they've been, as Eustace teams are normally well coached and organised.1 -

Two of our three wins at home against the bottom two (are we allowed to look at the table yet??).Not great reading!0

Hence why we were in a slightly false position and why NJ wasn't given Manager if the month for August.....those pundits know their onions 😆.CAFC_boi said:Two of our three wins at home against the bottom two (are we allowed to look at the table yet??).Not great reading!
Let's see what the table looks like at xmas when everyone has played each other.3 -

Talking of Watford sackings reminds me of when Harry Bassett was summoned to John Reid's luxury pile by Elton John.Callumcafc said:“Watford manager Alessio Dionisi will remain in charge for the Championship clash with Charlton on Saturday, talkSPORT understands.

Elton invited Harry to throw a cushion that was in the design of a dice. "Throw a one to five Harry and you get sacked", said Elton, "So what if I throw a six?" replied Harry. "You get to throw again" said Elton.

That’s just the way it goes. Such is life.AberystwythAddick said:Both correct calls but can’t help but think that cards that early just ruin a game of footballI understand your point, but it concerns me when a player isn’t red carded for a clear red card offence just because it’s early in a game. The quality of the entertainment shouldn’t be the ref’s concern.
Similar to when pundits say refs should understand the importance of a particular game, like a premier league top of the table clash, or a big local derby. Yes, they should be aware of tensions in the circumstances, but the managers and captains are the ones who should be making sure their players are not being pricks, not the ref.
The ref can, of course, do what he can to calm situations, but unusual and incorrect leniency shouldn’t be part of that. We see this all the time when the big clubs play each other - either the ref lets too much go or he gets slaughtered by the media for daring to send someone off.
I know you weren’t having a go at the ref here, but your comment speaks to a wider problem - the ref will be blamed by some for ruining that Lincoln v West Ham game. At the end of the day, in my view, the refs get far too much grief, sometimes for reasons that are just not their responsibility, like the quality of entertainment on show.Sometimes refs are very good, sometimes they’re not great, sometimes they’re utter shit, but even then, the people making it difficult for them are the players. They’re the ones going in two footed, committing professional fouls, faking, complaining, retaliating, cheating and all the rest of it. It’s the players (and their managers) who are responsible for their own actions, and essentially, responsible for the quality of entertainment served up.10 -
It was a great opportunity to improve our goal difference, checks score, 1-0 win.FishCostaFortune said:

drives me absolutely nuts, then it’s a bloody pen isn’t it!2 -
The two Lincoln reds were clear red card offences, one an out of control, dangerous tackle, the other a clear last man foul. The sort you'd have to give, even if it was the 1st minute.
The controversial red was for Sheffield United, where Choudhury's second yellow was very soft. Those are the ones which kill you as a team.5 -
Same. Preston still look poor even with a new manager, Derby have a poor squad with a good manager but will probably sack him and hire a worse manager soon. Pompey I thought were poor against us, and everything I’ve seen since doesn’t change that, they’ve struggled against 10 men in both their previous games. Watford seem to a mess at the moment. Cardiff, Lincoln and Bolton are all doing alright, but I think squad depth will be a problem for all 3 like it was for us last season. Depth will be a problem for Blackburn too, though they are doing well currently. I’ve seen enough so far to be confident we will be fine againStu_of_Kunming said:

Sounds like the dreaded vote of confidence from Naby.0

We are 6th favourites to go down now.
Blackburn are the next one down at 6/1, Sheffield Utd 8/1, Burnley 22/1.

I don’t think these odds mean much at this stage of the season. I imagine after 10 games last season, Leicester still had long odds to be relegated and they still went down.RedPanda said:
