    Why, are we playing in the city centre?
    You obviously haven't been before, the ground is close to the city centre. 
  • I think Sincil Bank is fine. Brayford and river Witham are high in centre of town, but that is quite a way from the stadium.  There is a dyke next to the stadium, but that is designed to ease the risk of flooding and has high banks. Just hope the pitch has been well tended. As was a lot of water fell on the east.

    If the top of Steep Hill was flooded then the bottom would be under about 300 feet of water!

    Bit random but someone I sit next to at games pointed out Dan Cowley to me. 

    I went and had a chat with Cowley and he was a really nice bloke tbf, asked if he would hop on the vlog which at first he said yes before realising I actually meant then and there at the game and not in the comfort of a podcast studio of sorts. 

    Anyway I am pretty sure I also saw his brother turn up so I put two and two together and thought, is this bloke scouting us potentially for the Lincoln game?

    I said to him I know why you're here Dan now fella, you've been absolutely rumbled, good luck with the Lincoln job. He laughed and denied it, as he was leaving he saw me waiting for the tunnel jumps and actually took time to say goodbye to me again which I thought was quite classy, nice guy. 

    So I chucked 20 quid on him at 4/1 to be next Lincoln manager based on this. 

    As I type all this out it even sounds like bullshit myself but, true story. Hopefully he gets the Lincoln hotseat.

    & finally, he spoke very well of us, said Appleton is doing a brilliant job, is convinced we are going up as our young attacking talent is brilliant and wished us all the best
  • Nice one, Braziliance.

    Good spot.

    Direct LNER services between Kings Cross/ Lincoln appear to be running normally, also trains between Newark Northgate/ Lincoln are running normally.

    Last season the coach had to park quite far from the ground pretty much in a park where there was also plenty of cars parked up, wasn't great underfoot too. Appreciate this was coach parking as the coach couldn't get any closer to the ground so could be quite tight parking for cars too.

    Any remaining tickets will be available to purchase on the day of the game from the visitor window located at the club store.
    That's from the away day guide email from from the club.

    There will be operational changes for Tuesday's game against Charlton Athletic due to the aftermath of Storm Babet.

    Storm Babet

    The club are working with partners to protect the Sincil Bank community, with the water level of Sincil Drain remaining high following the extraordinary rainfall on Friday.

    The Sincil Bank pathway is closed from South Park Avenue to the south-west corner of the LNER Stadium footprint, with supporters who usually use that route - including those parking on the South Common - asked to go via the High Street and cross via the bridges on Queen Street or Sewell's Walk.

    Pumping trucks will be in operation on Sincil Bank outside the GBM Stand, with pipes running along this road as part. This remains open to spectators, but we ask those attending to take extra caution in this area of the stadium before and after the match.

    Have booked parking on the south common. Hopefully stewards will guide where we need to go when we arrive and hopefully won’t need 4 wheel drive when leaving the common.

    Comfortably.

    Find a spot, take your foot off the pedal and turn the ignition off.
    Jobs a good 'un.

    Sounds like you won't be parking, more like mooring!
