That, in my opinion was the difference between us and Lincoln on Tuesday - they were no great shakes and we were all over them in the first half.

You are dead right. This problem is a major factor in why we are not challenging for play-off places this season, IMHO. I think it's called the Crighton/Bossu(?) syndrome, but maybe that's being a little bit harsh?
