W 2-1 vs Stockport County (H) - League Two, Sat 12th August, 3:00pm

He signed a 4 year contract about a month ago, he’s very highly rated. If he’s leaving Lincoln he’s moving up, not down a division.

They also now only play with one striker hence why Draper is allowed out on loan. Not sure they think he is ready for the loan striker role yet

To stand any chance of getting the likes of Liam Bennett, Freddie Draper and any other young player we get on loan that does extremely well is that we have to get promoted to continue their upward career path.

No player like Rushworth last summer, Bennett this summer and Draper next summer who have the chance of playing regular League 1 football will join us permanently as a team that finishes below mid table in League 2.

That is true but I remember many years ago at Fellows Park we walloped Bristol Rovers 5 something but the ref had a stinker. I think he was really surprised when he was booed off and worse when he left the pitch.

Didn’t you say you would be surprised If he played Foulkes also .

Don’t think so no.

But I did say I thought we’d all end up thinking Foulkes was better than Bennet as he had more to his game.

I also said DJ Evans Hutch Gordon were all rested midweek and had no chance of not playing v Stockport.

Never make an argument based on one example I was always told :stuck_out_tongue_winking_eye:

That’s lyrics from a reggae song isn’t it?

Maybe this would clear things up without starting an argument
“I think the plan was to see Tierney and Foulkes v Blackburn…a much less physically demanding games than the likes of Stockport….although both did well (Foulkes particularly) I don’t think either will play tomorrow. “

I’m sure Dennis “money in my pocket” Brown did something along those lines.

Yea I didn’t think they would…but granted, I missed that I’d posted that…I just remembered being more adamant that Draper wouldn’t.

As I said I thought Foulkes was far more impressive so was less surprised, if at all….I said I’d be surprised if he did rather than “no chance that he would”

But seeing as trawling through my every thought is now a pastime we should pick up everything or just the things I didn’t think would happen but did…it seemed everyone thought Tierney would play but I was right on that one….50/50 :rofl::stuck_out_tongue_winking_eye:

I was thinking of Althea and Donna but thought only about four people would get the reference, so I went wider with “reggae song”. :smile:

Glad you were able to clear that up .did anyone say “no chance that he would” because I didn’t.don’t really feel the need to respond to the rest of your post would be just pandering to your need for an argument.

Not sure there’s any need for an argument.

I said there was no chance Draper starts v Stockport and was wrong and admitted as much.

I said I’d be surprised if Foulkes started v Stockport and I was!

I also said Oteh would start v Morecambe and he did and I said I’d be surprised if Tierney started v Stockport and he didn’t….

Offering opinions was what I thought we did here…oh well

Yes the key words here are “I don’t THINK….”

Get on with the golf. I hope you have more of clue about that :rofl:

As I said…I was certain Draper wouldn’t play…I thought Foulkes was excellent midweek but I didn’t THINK he’d play, I said I’d be surprised if he did….and I was!!

No idea why that’s such a big deal, I offered my thoughts on Saturdays team….I was wrong about one, correct on another and surprised by another…

Tommy fleetwood 2 off the lead don’t think he’s gonna do it

let’s not forget Draper has only been playing in the farmers league according to five minute Wilko mask wearer, Rory Gaffney obsessive, and fingers on the melting glaciers of Greenland @Thanatos. Oooohh I did predict a non admission of being totally wrong yet again from our resident flapping gork/scientist. Over to you Thanny, what a ball that was yesterday, farmers league eh? :rofl:

Whoever would of thought that other fans, can form an opinion on a player after watching them play :man_facepalming:

Some of the point scoring and tit for tat antics are making it hard to read this forum on some days.

Not just hard, but is making the site less enjoyable. I would go as far as saying it is wrecking it.
