Fair play to them, 6,200 season tickets isn't a bad return. Lincoln have always had that element.... both the city and more so the county were the engine rooms of the Leave campaign in the Brexit ref.

Of course not all leave voters were hooligans.... however there has always been a fascist element within football trouble makers, as there is within parties like UKIP who campaigned for Leave.

Well Boston had the highest Brexit vote in the at nearly 76% leave, and other Lincs districts weren't far behind... District Leave Remain Turnout Boston 75.6% 24.4% 77.2% East Lindsey 70.7% 29.3% 74.9% Lincoln 56.9% 43.1% 69.3% South Holland 73.6% 26.4% 75.3% South Kesteven 59.9% 40.1% 78.2% North Kesteven 62.3% 37.7% 78.4% West Lindsey 61.8% 38.2% 74.2% It is generally thought this was because of the number of EU workers coming in to pick carrots etc..... interestingly, the NFU reckon that without a deal that enables agriculture to operate as it does now, Britain will run out of food on the 7th August 2019.
