8. Theo Archibald
Signed during Michael Appleton’s tenure in a promising window that included Brennan Johnson, Theo Archibald was tipped to bring flair and attacking intent. Instead, he failed to make a single league start. His impact was limited to the EFL Trophy, and despite showing technical ability, he never forced his way into a team brimming with quality in the final third.
Competition for places, coupled with injuries and possible stylistic mismatches, saw Archibald loaned out and then sold to Leyton Orient, where he did have more success. For Lincoln, however, he’s remembered as a player who promised much but delivered very little.
