113 days out for Hansel Zapata after a fracture
A bone, which is the one injury with a calendar attached. Lincoln City will name a return date and, unusually for this business, will probably be right about it.
Match7 Nov 2026
7 unbeaten for Lincoln City
Hard to beat is not the same as winning, but 7 matches without defeat is a foundation Lincoln City did not have in the autumn.

Lamare Bogarde in a row with a teammate

8.23. There are performances a supporter describes to somebody who was not there and cannot quite convey; this was one, and the number does not help either.

The view from the dugout
“We controlled it. There were spells I did not like and we will look at them, but the group showed me something.” Joshua Roberts, on a 1‑0 win that he was already picking apart on the walk to the press room.
