I guess on the right of midfield, unless Forrester plays there. I'm not a fan of playing strikers out wide, but we'll see how he gets on. Simon Brown is in goal for Brentford. Remember him? |

Bit disappointed that Iffy has not taken the opportunity to play a back four of Green, Moses, Hone, Ridley. Would have been interesting to see how Hone and Moses worked together, particularly with our tendency to allow players to get onto balls over the back four. Still, maybe he's still tinkering as part of the planning for next season. Lets hope for a good performance today. Up the Imps  Steve, Perth, Western Australia |

Not a bad shout that, but Beevers is skipper so he's not going to be dropped. He'll be one of the few players who will be in the team come the start of next season. As for the picture, after it was taken I skinned four players before smashing it in the top corner from 40 yards. Honest. |

It's raising money for MacMillan Cancer Support, so if you're in the area, pop along. It's happening at 8pm. I've never done one before. Does anyone have any tips? |

I prefer to remember that game for Lee Thorpe's goal which he directed home via his backside. |

From the corner, the Imps keeper makes a far more convincing save from Nathan Elder's header, holding it well. At the other end, Beevers blazes miles over. |
