    This lad is current top scorer in league 2 with 15 goals and 4 assists.

    The strange thing is, he is on loan from 14th placed Bradford City and to put that into perspective, their whole team has only managed 21 goals.

    And we think our board make strange decisions

    Didn't know that. Absolutely bizarre!.

    Talking of loan players, I thought that Alex Mitchell, Lincoln's centre half on loan from Millwall was immense. Think he'd slot very well into our side. Big, brave, excellent positional sense.

    Wouldn't take Collins long to knock those traits out of him. This is Collins' Red & White Army, our traits are poor passes, dodgy touches and powder-puff tackling.

    Yes, he impressed me. Maybe a loan swap with Styles in January?

    A bit harsh. We were very good today, and 9 times out of 10 would have won comfortably with that performance. Jury's still out on Collins for me but if we carry on playing like that we'll win far more than we'll lose.

    Some absolute drongos in charge of things at clubs up and down the country. Could genuinely get a monkey to fling **** at a designated wall and they'd make better judged decisions than some of them

    I was at Lincoln and didn’t think we played well at all. Yes we have a lot of the ball but we don’t pressurise teams enough. We had a good 20 min spell but very poor otherwise.

    Been my thoughts all season that this team haven’t yet dominated a full game bar maybe the Cambridge one. That’s not a promotion team we are seeing this season.
