The B-Ark / How many going

Just for fun, what is your prediction of how many we will take to Rochdale. I'll say 765.

The B-Ark / Lucky scarf?
« on: November 28, 2019, 04:32:15 PM »
Many years ago 1969 to be precise, I had a girlfriend. She was a regular supporter of Lincoln City. I did not hold that against her, or did she me for being a Boston supporter. As a surprise she knitted me an eight foot long Black and amber scarf for Christmas. I met her a couple of years ago and mentioned the scarf, she denied knitting it, perhaps something to do with her now being a Lincoln season ticket holder.
I shall be bringing it out for a rare outing on Sunday. The amber is a bit faded and the scarf is a little out of shape, due to some Kettering fan deciding that it would be fun to try and strangle me with it.
It's been to some very memorable games over the 50 years. Also some I would like to forget. It has been worn according to fashion of the time, around the head, neck, wrist and even the waist.
So, this Sunday I shall be wearing it ( to keep warm ) and may it be lucky.

The B-Ark / New signings?

With Duhaney and Woolford out for the Rochdale game, do you think CE will bring in a player or two? With the chance of a big name team and big money in the next round, it may pay him to bring in some experience. What do you think?

The B-Ark / Old songs and chants
« on: November 05, 2019, 01:18:56 PM »
With the Fa cup just around the corner, I got to remembering the great cup runs and games we had in the 60's and 70's.
I also got to thinking of the songs and chants we used to sing.
With the problems of fighting and tribal confrontation of that era, a lot of the songs/chants were aimed at insulting the opposing fans.
One I seem to remember started like this " Like a knock kneed chicken and a cross eyed hen. We hav'nt lost a fight since I don't know when" I cannot for the life of me remember the rest. Does anyone remember this chant?
Can anyone remember other songs or chants? In this PC world we now live in, please be careful in what you post.

The B-Ark / League table
« on: August 18, 2019, 09:26:12 AM »
Now starting to take shape.
The favourites York now sit pretty on the top. Nice to see Kings Lynn in third, and Spennymoor have only one point.
Plenty of time yet.

The B-Ark / George Green ( a fan's view )
« on: August 05, 2019, 09:33:47 AM »
Talking to some Chester fans before the match. They told me, if we can get George's mind on the job we have a good player.
They also said, his mouth runs away with him a bit. On a couple of occasions he has nearly come to blows with his team mates. They said when this starts happening, the manager should get him off. He was sent off a couple of times and in their opinion, he did not merit it. But his constant griping at the ref made him a target.
