Despite an energy-sapping 2-1 victory over Barnet just a few days beforehand, Still kept faith with the same starting 11, saying: “I couldn’t change it after that. The lads were fantastic, the understanding was fantastic as well.
“I wasn’t sure how conditions would go and they were used to it.

The boss wasn’t surprised by the lack of clear cut chances for either side too, as Lincoln had scored 10 and conceded just seven in their previous 11 home games.
Still said: “We thought it would be tight. They like to play the one in front of the back four and you don’t always get opportunities to get the ball into people’s feet because of the screen.

“But we didn’t and it didn’t and there you are. As as I said, on the day, it was a good battling performance.”
The result saw Town make it 19 games unbeaten in the league, equalling a club record set twice during the 1960s.
