Up The Imps!!!
Congratulations, Lincoln City FC – A New Era Begins!
Lincoln is celebrating a truly historic moment: Lincoln City Football Club have secured promotion to the Sky Bet Championship for the 2026/27 season, returning to the second tier of English football for the first time in 65 years after a dramatic 2–1 victory over Reading on Easter Monday.
It’s been a remarkable season of consistency, belief, and resilience — and now the Imps are ready to take on some of the biggest names in the game at the LNER Stadium next season.
