Exactly . There’s people on here who could start an argument in an empty room.

No there isn't.

Show some compassion,sensitivity to the situation.
I don't give a monkeys about who has to pay what & I'm sure the club isn't thinking about this either.
If your that hard up I'll give you £20 to get into the reply if it makes you feel better.
What kind of poxy discussion is this when someone's family member has died?

EFL should cover all travel expenses for Lincoln.
No fans.

This is getting irritating . We were in 9th position with 17 points and now we've dropped down to 16th on 14 points . So because the last 6 minutes of the Lincoln game wasn't played due to a medical emergency we're going to be playing the whole game again ?

The hassle of arranging everything that is required to host supporters (e.g. security, catering staff etc.) for a match which almost certainly would have to be played midweek would not be worth it. There’s also the fact that if the game is replayed midweek it would be unfair to make Lincoln travel in the evening so it could be a 7:45pm kick off.

Makes most sense to replay mid-week, mid-afternoon and behind closed doors.

Get the game done and move on.

I see no reason why Lincoln should accept a defeat for a game which was far from over (it was 1-0 with plenty of time left to score) that was abandoned for something that was completely out of their control.

Because of one word ' Integrity " Only six minutes to play and somebody lost their life . If it happened in reverse at Lincoln to a Lincoln supporter I would like to think we would accept the result and move on . I feel our clubs integrity is worth far more than 1 or 3 points

This is the 3rd abandoment of a game Lincoln have been Involved in due to death. David Longhurst death York city, Bradford fire & tuesday. One game was never replayed , the other was.

Like Richie said it's down to what the EFL decide . I wonder how much more time they need to make a decision
