We have recieved communication from Sleafordian Coaches regarding the recent news that they would no longer be running the regular service for Sleaford based fans to get to the home games. Sleafordian owner, Mark Broughton, has moved quickly to address the fears of the fans based in that part of Lincolnshire and has asked us to make you all aware of the new system.

Sleafordian's 5 year deal with the Imps to provide the coach service ran out a few weeks back and with news that Marshall's Coaches will now be providing travel to away games has give most Sleaford based fans something to worry about.

With Sleafordian being based in Sleaford (you'd never guess from the name would you?) fans out in that area could choose to board the away coaches in that area before they headed to Sincil Bank. Sleadfordian also provided a service whereas they would transport fans from Sleaford to the home games, a godsend for night games when there are no trains back.

With Marshall's Coaches taking over, many Sleaford based fans were worrying about how they would get to some games, but Mark Broughton has been kind enough to get in contact with us to deliver the following message. 

"An independent City supporter will be running a coach for some selected away games from Sleaford next season not an employee of ours.Sleafordian will merely provide the coach,please check our website for details on a regular basis
We apologize for the termination of the Sleaford-Lincoln home game service but these are for the reasons given on our website. "

An official announcement from Sleafordian can be found http://www.sleafordian.co.uk/pdf%20files/lincoln%20city%20service%20information.pdf and more news is expected within the next few weeks.
