Lincoln City are League One champions!
So resharing this piece I wrote for @TimesSport on what it means, all the years watching with my Dad and the idea of taking my daughter to her first game in the Championship... @LincolnCity_FC @EFL

The stats around Dejan Kulusevski's absence from Spurs are crazy - great to hear he'll be back on the bench tonight...
@TomAllnutt_ analyses what his absence showed and return might mean...

...and still no one's replaced Dejan Kulusevski since he last played for Spurs. But he is back in the squad to face Coventry, writes @TomAllnutt_ thetimes.com/sport/football/…

The last time Dejan Kulusevski played football Leicester were in the Premier League - they're 14th in L1.
10 yellow cards and 1 red in a game which barely had a foul or hard tackle, referee Ruebyn Ricardo and his team destined for the Premier League
The definition of a 'look at me' official - watch out Michael Oliver
Another red card is a lovely touch for the spirit and togetherness crew.
That is two massive points dropped. Second half tactics, subs, goals conceded, all absolutely shite
Didn't need Jeffries to score, could easily have won that 2-0

Thoroughly enjoyable chat with Austin Healey. Two parts incisive, one part piss-taking – always.
Covered loads: his live analysis, the future of rugby on TV, pundits on the pitch, why he didn’t coach, TMOs, England and more.

HUGE sympathies with all my colleagues who are today asking 'Did you go to the West Ham game?' and then having to listen to 10 minutes of ranting from me.
Still not over it
James Trafford exclusive interview with @mhardysport

- Life on the farm
- Challenges at City and shining at Burnley
- Tuchel's call and facing Spain
Lovely read here: thetimes.com/sport/football/…
Whatever the scoreline ends up being I don't want any flannelly bollocks after the game about togetherness and fight and moments
Slag em off, apologise, say it was stupid, say they let the fans down, the lot
A catastrophic let down

What does the wait for Manchester City's punishment mean for the Premier League?
Gregor Robertson says the idea that Man City could be top of the table for much of the season and then be relegated is "nuts".
The team also discussed Carrick, Arbeloa, Ipswich, Chelsea and missed sitters.

On Calciopoli & some of the lessons of Juve that might apply to Man City:
Why handing over trophies is so toxic. that a quick resolution cannot be a rushed resolution. and how the resentment will run and run
"We were ringing our agents saying ‘sell us, sell us’. No way was I going to sacrifice a year in the second division."
