286 - Loanees, Running And the Run-In!

3/24/2024
With no Imps game to talk about this weekend, we're taking a look at a couple of talking points instead. First up, we take a look at our loanees and give their current situations a once over. Sam Long, Jaden Brown, Ali Smith and more all get a look in here! Next up, we're talking about the big thing. The run-in. We look at Oxford, Stevenage and Blackpool's fixtures, and have a little game of predicting where the four teams will finish! Will the Imps land 6th place according to us? We've tried to be as unbiased as possible, so let's see how we go... Of course, we have the regularly scheduled Stacey West fun and games as well, with the lads giving a brief update on our running progress with only three weeks until the Lincoln 10k... We'll see you Thursday where we'll be previewing the Orient game - Up the Imps! This Podcast has been created and uploaded by Gary Hutchinson of the Stacey West Podcast.

285 - Academy Special! The Past, Present and Future of the Imps' Academy

3/21/2024
It's the international break, which means no game for the Imps this weekend. So instead, we've got something a little different for you! Chris and Charlie sit down to talk about the past, present and future of Lincoln City's Academy! Charlie had the pleasure of discussing things with Jez this week, and he brings some of his newly found knowledge to all of you. Chris recounts some of his time spent in the Academy, before we take a look at some of the players who've come through the system, we look at some of those currently in the mix, and the pathways (had to get it in somewhere) that are offered to the prospects that get snapped up across all age brackets. Of course, there's some typical Stacey West goodness in here as well, as Chris reveals his current accommodation plans for a certain weekend in May... I think it's safe to say we're on board at this point! This Podcast has been created and uploaded by Gary Hutchinson of the Stacey West Podcast.

284 - Bristol Rovers, Goals, Goals and More Goals!

3/17/2024
Not that much to talk about on this St Patrick's Day if you're an imp, is there? Just the 16 goals in three games, another dismantling of a decent side, and within two points of the coveted sixth spot. The freight train that is Lincoln City's current run is at full speed, and we're here to ride it all the way! We are, of course, looking at the game yesterday, taking the positives (and the negative) away from it, and finding it increasingly hard to keep our feet firmly on the ground. You've got a full hour of analysis this week, with there being no game until Good Friday! What a time it is to be a Lincoln City fan. Enjoy it, people. This is special. Up The Imps.

283 - Cambridge, Bristol Rovers, Finances and Perfection?

3/14/2024
Well, that was a fun week, wasn't it? Hot on the heels of the 5-1 away win at Barnsley, we're talking about another six goal thriller against Cambridge, and trying (while not succeeding) to keep our feet firmly on the ground with regard to the P word! We also talk about the international break, the reluctance of those above us in the pyramid to sort out a financial deal, and look ahead to Bristol Rovers. No preview in the podcast this week due to a tight turnaround time, but be sure to check the YouTube channel later this evening when Charlie will be speaking to Matt from the Real EFL to get his take on the game on Saturday. Of course, there's the normal SW nonsense thrown in as well, but all in all, it's a damn good time to be an Lincoln City fan right now. Long may it continue. Up the Imps.

282 - Barnsley, Cambridge and Drunk Presenters

3/10/2024
Gary and Charlie discuss the 5-1 victory at Barnsley. Of course, it's all about the possible play-off push (again) despite last week's knowing denial of our chances. We're breaking down the goals, and looking ahead to Cambridge., Tom, from Under the Abbey Stand, joins Charlie for a chat to chew over that game. Gary is drunk throughout and signing off for a couple of weeks. That means a bit off swearing. This Podcast has been created and uploaded by Gary Hutchinson of the Stacey West Podcast.

281 - Barnsley, More Injuries, and Weird Dreams

3/7/2024
Gary and Charlie are here to talk about the news from the Imps this week! Including yet another season ending injury, giving their opinions on potential Player of the Season winners, and looking ahead to the weekend's fixture at Oakwell! Ben is joined by Carlo from Reds Report, and there's an unusual admission on who's been infiltrating Gary's dreams... It's the Stacey West Podcast, what else do you expect? Up the Imps!

280 - Stevenage, The End of the Play-Offs Push and Questions From the Floor

3/3/2024
Gary and Chris sit down to talk about Stevenage. Both are under the weather - but we still plough on to give you 70 minutes of Lincoln City joy. Perhaps, during the first 20 minutes, we're a little bitter. Still, it gets better. No, really, it does. This Podcast has been created and uploaded by Gary Hutchinson of the Stacey West Podcast.

279 - Shrewsbury, Stevenage, and a Midfield Crisis?

2/29/2024
Nine games unbeaten has us in a solid mood to talk about the Imps this week, as we dissect the demolition of Shrewsbury, before looking ahead to Stevenage's visit on Saturday! Charlie is joined by Pat from the Boropod to get their take on things! We also talk about Ethan Hamilton's season ending prematurely, and maybe see some flickers of concern about the midfield for the weekend, after Michael Skubala revealed that another player is a possible doubt for the game... We also go into the usual nonsense and try yet again not to get carried away with our late-stage playoff push... Is it happening?

278 - Port Vale, Shrewsbury and Who Do We Hate More: Grimsby or Forest Green?

2/25/2024
It's that time again, when the Stacey West team talk about a game they saw. Or, in Gary's case this week, barely saw, despite being there. We're looking at Port Vale, and of course, picking at that little play-off thread once again. Then, because the game was a little bit tedious, we're off on a tangent, asking who we hate more; Forest Green or Grimsby. Then we're on the Golden Share, national news this week, before finishing on Shrewsbury, and how it's a winnable game that could bring us to within six points of Oxford United. Six points......

277 - Port Vale and Contracts

2/22/2024
It's Thursday, you know what that means... Time to talk all things Lincoln City! The Imps travel to Port Vale this weekend, so we're looking ahead to that, while Ben is joined by Jonny from the Ale and the Vale Podcast to get his take on the appointment of Darren Moore and how they're seeing the season. We also talk about some of the contracted players who we believe are up at the end of the season, and who we should bust a gut to keep! Lasse features. A lot. And to round it off, we give a fundraising update, and Charlie lets slip who he wants to see more of! "This Podcast has been created and uploaded by Gary Hutchinson of the Stacey West Podcast.

276 - Exeter City & Slim Play-Off Hopes

2/18/2024
It's Gary and Chris, back again and picking over the weekend's action. We're talking Exeter City, Pierce Sweeney and a big three points for City. Are we in with a play-off shout? There's a look at our run-in and that of the teams above us. Obviously, we're talking running as well, as we often do!

2/15/2024
This week on the Stacey West Podcast it's Chris and Charlie, taking you through the draw at Charlton, looking ahead to Exeter and talking everything Imps! The lads go over the Season Ticket renewal news, talk about Jay Benn, and discuss Chris' golfing session for good measure! No opposition preview on the pod this week, but that hopefully drop on YouTube, depending on schedules! Get subscribed, and as always, Up the Imps!

Former Player Special #5 - Simon Yeo

2/14/2024
Welcome to the second of our podcasts in association with the Former Players Association. It's numbered 5, as we have previously spoken to Gavin Gordon, Mark Hone & Roger Holmes. However, this is the second in a new series hosted by Gary and former Lincoln City player Paul De Garis, following on from Matt Carmichael. Simon John Yeo had two spells with the Imps, the first from 2002-2005 and the second at the start of 2006. He scored 58 goals in 158 games, including 21 league goals in 2004/05, the last time a player achieved the fabled 20 goals a season for City in the Football League. Is he best known for the leveller against Torquay or the brace against Scunthorpe? Maybe it was the winner at Glanford Park in the second leg of the play-offs or the hat trick at Grimsby. There are too many great Simon Yeo moments! Hear him talk about the Gaffer, Keith, and the influence he had on Simon's life. He's tackling some of the red cards and doesn't hold back on one member of the 2002/03 squad. "This Podcast has been created and uploaded by Gary Hutchinson of the Stacey West Podcast.

274 - Fleetwood, Charlton and Mistaken Identity

2/11/2024
There's a lot to cover in this podcast - it's unusual in that there's a game on Tuesday to preview, but we don't have an opposition view, so it's just Gary and Chris. We're talking all things Fleetwood; from misconceptions of the first half to mistaken identity. We've studied the video footage and come up with the definitve answer to the question 'what the hell happened there?' There's a bit of chatter about Charlton, before we wander off down a blind alley talking about Luton, Nathan Jones and Grimsby being rubbish.

273 - Burroughs, Landon and Fleetwood

2/8/2024
We're still slightly buzzing after a culmination of good performances, and not even a piece of injury news can bring us down this week. We talk about Jack Burroughs' unfortunate news, go over a few other bits of news coming from the club this week, before turning our attentions to Fleetwood this weekend. Ben's joined by Knappers to get his take on the game (check the whole preview out on YouTube!), while Chris dissects what we need to do to win. We also talk a little about Landon Donovan and his appearance on the We Are Imps podcast, and the other Stacey West rambling you've come to expect from us at this point! And yes, that does mean we talk a little bit about the running journeys as well - If you'd like to help us hit our fundraising targets, please head to https://www.justgiving.com/page/the-stacey-wests-10k-journey Up the Imps!

Deadline Day Special: Jez George, Liam Scully and Conor McGrandles

2/2/2024
This is a bit of a mash-up - the best bits from our four-hour live feed broadcast on February 1st. Ben's joined by Dave Fletcher from BBC Radio Derby for this weekend's preview as the Imps travel to the Pirelli Stadium to take on Burton Albion, whilst Chris and Charlie are on hand to comment. We're discussing Ben House's possible return, before featuring exclusive interviews with Jez George and Liam Scully live from Sincil Bank, and Conor McGrandles live from a hotel somewhere in Lincoln.

271 - Peterborough, Brown Exit and Transfer Rumours

1/28/2024
For the second week, City drew 0-0. For the second week, the podcast is cool with that. Gary and Charlie are onboard, talking about Peterborough United, Darren Ferguson and a whole lot more. There's a bit on Jaden Brown, and we're looking at the rumours circulating, including those linking the Imps with a former Scottish Premier League prospect, Charlie McCann. We're also looking at the perils of having a beard and wondering how hard Charlie had it as a kid if he was denied frozen water. Listen, subscribe, tell a friend, all that stuff.

270 - Derby, More Outgoings, and Previewing Posh

1/25/2024
After holding the team in second place to a draw at the weekend, the Imps face the team in second place at the Bank on Saturday, as Peterborough make the short journey over. Ben and Chris look ahead to the game, and dissect what could happen, while Charlie is joined by Kelan from the Real EFL podcast to get an opposition view on things! We also take a look at two outgoings from the club this week, as Hakeeb Adelakun and, somewhat surprisingly, Ali Smith head out on loan, and we also talk about the rumours of Jaden Brown heading north of the border. Add in to that a small discussion on the accounts (for a detailed chat, check out the special podcast with Kieran Maguire from The Price Of Football!) and a bit of the traditional Stacey West Podcast nonsense, and you've got yourself a bumper episode this week! As always, get subscribed, check out the YouTube channel, and we'll see you all on Sunday where hopefully we'll be talking about a shock three points. Up The Imps!

Price of Football / Imps Accounts Special

1/24/2024
The Imps accounts up to June 2023 have been released today (Wednesday, 24th January), and we're on the ball with the analysis. Gary and Charlie chat over the news, which doesn't take a genius to work out before special guest Keiran Maguire comes on to chat to Charlie about the numbers. If you don't know who Keiran is, he has his own Wikipedia page, which opens with "Kieran Maguire is a British academic, author, and broadcaster. He specialises in the accountancy of association football and authored the book The Price of Football. His expertise is frequently sought within English football media. Alongside comedian Kevin Day, Maguire presents a twice-weekly podcast entitled The Price of Football, in which football finances are discussed." When it comes to football finances, there's nobody better, so settle down and enjoy this super-special Stacey West exclusive.
