I'd assumed that must be it but appreciate the confirmation teach. Their new season strike force policy - "buy in older proven guys" - blew up fairly spectacularly with Broughton and Facey. When your best return from a dedicated striker is 4 goals in 36 games you've got to wonder ......

Update; 1st March - Lincoln City 3-1 Oxford Utd

A 5th minute strike from Josh O'Keefe (who joins the three other players each with four goals for the season) and two second-half own goals; the win didn't do Oxford's play-off hopes a lot of good either.

Interesting starting line-up - O'Keefe, Fuseini, Grimes and Facey - Ben Hutchinson for Facey after 80; Carayol and Kanyuka on the bench. Even with that win, Lincoln's goal difference is still -14, and the third worst in the Division (Barnet -20, Stockport -41); they're now 15th - one point and thirteen goals behind us, with two more games played than we have. We've played 30, and all the teams above us have played 32 or more; at the risk of blowing the whole thing, check the League table and see where we'd be if we won those 2 games in hand

Further update ..........

Lincoln's on-loan Arsenal defender Gavin Hoyte is out for six months with damaged anterior cruciate and medial ligaments; the injury happened in the Chesterfield match on 19th February, which Lincoln lost 2-0. Hoyte will require surgery. He was on loan at Sincil Bank until the end of the season, and made 15 appearances for the Imps after joining from Arsenal in October 2010.

They will also be without Luke Howell for two to three weeks after the midfielder limped off with a hamstring injury in Tuesday's 3-1 victory over Oxford United.

While we will all wish them both well, their absence may aid our cause ...........
