Lincoln City had a big match on tap, with a trip to league leaders Barnet a chance to make their case as one of the best teams in the Conference Premier (fifth division). But the bus to London never showed up so the team had to find their own way to the city and in the scramble to get to London they forgot something -- their tactics board.
Lincoln City beat league leaders thanks to jelly babies tactics
A sweet three points, indeed.
So manager Gary Simpson decided to use jelly babies.

“If we can keep winning I will do whatever is necessary,” Simpson told BBC Radio Lincolnshire.
And if it’s good enough for the senior team, it’s good enough for the U-10’s.
@LCFCAcademy 10s copying the @LincolnCity_FC first team using Jelly Babies today! Haha @buddytomo #rolemodels pic.twitter.com/cIWZ1TcMLu
