Trio of games to be shown on Premier Sports

Lincoln City will be shown on Premier Sports three times in the first three months of the season. Home games against Wrexham and Fleetwood and an away game at fellow Blue Square new boys Braintree are the three Lincoln games that have been chosen to be televised.

Premier Sports have proven quite unpopular with most non-league fans, mainly due to games being moved to unusual kick off times and Lincoln City have gotten an early taster with regards to that. Our home games against Wrexham and Fleetwood have been moved to Friday evenings from their original Saturday afternoon slots, and the away game at Braintree on September 3rd will now kick off at the rather unusual time of 7pm.

The Imps don't have a good history on TV in recent years. Our most recent appearance was a 3-1 win over Northwich in the FA Cup, that ended a run of four games without a win on television.
