“I thought we deserved to win, we played well. Everything we talked about before the game, in terms of final third entries.\u00a0 I thought it was a big plus because when I look at Saturday (defeat at Port Vale), we only had one shot on goal so the lads did everything that was asked of them; control the game possession and there were some good passing sequences.<\/p>\n
“We were really naive about the goal we conceded. I think we’re the youngest team in the league and we’re going to make mistakes and we have to accept that. All we can do is try and help the guys but those things; I see too often.”<\/p><\/blockquote>\n
Charles Vernham back in the side, having had to wait patiently to earn his chance, returned to the starting lineup with the injury of Danny Mandroiu. Vernham seized his opportunity and played an integral performance in the Lincoln attack, almost coming away with a stunning goal but for some brilliant goalkeeping.<\/p>\n
“We were controlling the game and then just the lapse in concentration and concede a sloppy goal so it’s disappointing but I think at the end of the day, we have to look at the positives and it’s a point gained. We didn’t lose the game so we have to build on this and take it into a busy month.”<\/p>\n
“You’re frustrated as a player when you’re not playing but I’ve tried to be as supportive as I can to the group because they’ve been playing really well and it’s one of those things.\u00a0 I’ve been involved in the game long enough to understand the opportunities come when you least expect them so you’ve always got to be prepared, be ready and luckily, I’ve managed to put in a good performance and hopefully that’ll continue.”<\/p><\/blockquote>\n
Lincoln turns their attention to FA Cup action this weekend as they face minnows Chippenham at Sincil Bank.<\/p>\n
