The FPA guests for Sunday's home game against Peterborough United are host Matt Carmichael, plus Chris Moyses and Steve Garfoot.

Matt Carmichael

Matt Carmichael was signed by Colin Murphy in August 1989. 

At the time he was planning to join the Met Police after having previously served in the British Army but Colin offered him a professional contract and his career changed track. 

He was initially used as a striker and scored on his debut against Scunthorpe United but later converted to centre back. 

He was voted the supporters player of the season in 1991-92 and made over 150 first team appearances before moving on to Scunthorpe in July 1993. 

Matt later played for Preston, Mansfield, Doncaster and Darlington. Matt is vice chairman of the Former Players Association.

Chris Moyses

Chris Moyses was a full-back who made his first senior appearances for City as a 16-year-old when he played in three Football League Trophy games in August 1982. 

Chris, who was born and bred in Lincoln, initially joined the Imps under the Youth Opportunities Programme and progressed to becoming an apprentice and then signed as a professional. He made his Football League debut at Millwall in May 1984 and featured in the following three games only to be released at the end of that season. 

Chris went on to play for Halifax and was later at clubs including Grantham, Spalding, King's Lynn and Bourne. 

He returned to the Imps in May 2011 when he became involved in the youth team. In November 2014, Chris became caretaker manager and the following month took over as manager. He began the rebuilding of the team before leaving his role in May 2016 having signed several of the players who earned promotion back to the Football League the following season.
