Dearden Warns Squad

Last updated : 17 August 2007 By Editor
After suffering two heavy defeats to start the season, Lincoln arrive at Field Mill with more than a point to prove. "We all knew it was going to be hard at Brentford but we did well down there and were disappointed to only get a point," he told the Mansfield CHAD ahead of the clash at Field Mill.

"But if people think it will now be much easier at home, that is a load of rubbish.

"We will have to compete as hard as we did at Brentford to get anything out of this game.

"It is a bit of a local derby against Lincoln and I am sure they will bring a few fans with them.

"They will still be smarting from two heavy defeats and our point from Brentford won't count for anything if we let it slip on Saturday. Lincoln will come here more determined than ever to put it right.

"They might just come and try to shut up shop in which case it will be up to us to break them down.

"Attack-wise they look very strong with Forrester, Stallard and the big lad Torpey joining from Torquay. But we are quite strong going forwards too and I always fancy us to create chances.

"I know their manager John Schfield well and they will be trying to play football while still being a difficult team to defend against from set pieces.
