The dugout

Kuryu Matsuki: that is not what I was promised

“Things were said to me before I signed. I am not going to repeat them, but I remember all of them.” Lincoln City have not answered, which is an answer of sorts.

Jack Moylan asks to leave Lincoln City

“I have given everything here and I need a new challenge.” The request is formal, and the relationship will never be quite the same again.

Only the photograph left for Josh Honohan

Fee agreed, terms agreed, medical booked. Josh Honohan will be somebody else’s player by the weekend, and around Lincoln City the goodbyes have quietly begun.

Transfer targets

Mikey Moore will not be coming to Lincoln City

Terms were offered and declined. Whether it was the wages, the role or the town, nobody at Tottenham is saying, and nobody at Lincoln City is enjoying the guessing.

Boardroom

Graduation day at Lincoln City

5 boys move up, and somewhere in the building the people who coached them at twelve are quietly having the best morning of their working year. Nothing about this shows up in a result and it is why the academy exists.

Transfer targets

Door shut on Datro Fofana

Lincoln City asked and Chelsea said no without discussing a figure. It is the least ambiguous answer in football and the one clubs most often come back to test.

Squad

Words exchanged at Lincoln City

Jilmar and a teammate said things this week that will take longer than a week to unsay. It was not about football, and both of them play on Saturday.

The dugout

No hiding place for Tom Hamer

“I pick players who do the work. All of it.” No name was spoken; every camera still turned to Tom Hamer, and the manager let it.

David Williams steps up from the Lincoln City academy

There is no fee, no unveiling and no agent on the steps. David Williams has been at this club since he was a boy and is now, formally, one of the first-team squad — which for a local readership beats any signing of any size.

In brief
