:00:41. > :00:43.being cold and we've found that we weren't able

:00:44. > :00:53.Well, local council and health services had an idea.

:00:54. > :00:56.They used a pot of government cash to fix things making people

:00:57. > :00:59.unwell, poor or lonely. For 77-year-old retired builder

:02:04. > :02:06.At this early stage, that hasn't shown that position,

:02:07. > :02:09.but there is no reason to think that in the future if we continue

:02:10. > :02:12.to develop that, that wouldn't start to have that impact.

:02:13. > :02:15.Health bosses are desperately hoping to get more funding so they can

:02:51. > :02:54.of the competition for more than a century.

:02:55. > :02:56.And while they couldn't beat their Premier League opponents,

:02:57. > :02:59.fans say they're proud of what the team achieved.

:03:00. > :03:04.They weren't the headlines they were hoping for in Lincoln this

:03:05. > :03:07.morning, and while the bunting is still up, the

:03:08. > :03:13.Such a change from yesterday when, 9,000 Imps fans travelled

:03:14. > :03:16.to the Emirates, with several hundred more watching

:03:17. > :03:22.Hopes were high this non-league team could carry out

:03:23. > :03:27.And the first half was promising, holding off their opponents

:03:28. > :03:33.But in the second half, Arsenal finally showed the skills

:03:34. > :03:35.that put them 88 league places above Lincoln.

:04:13. > :04:17.We could have done a bit better but you can't blame the team.

:04:18. > :04:18.That was a starting Arsenal team, 1-0 up

:04:19. > :04:24.And Lincoln City left the pitch with their heads held high.

:04:25. > :04:27.When we do have an opportunity to reflect, I think we can be really
