Lincoln's game against Shrewsbury was postponed on Tuesday afternoon and the fixture between Barnet and Stockport meant that only a Hatters win would guarantee Lincoln wouldn't enter the New Year in the bottom two of the division. Stockport duly delivered with a comfortable 3-1 win at Underhill.

Meanwhile, Bradford City lost 4-0 at Cheltenham and they are Lincoln's next opponents, that is until the game is postponed.
