And a pair of these... But i hear Poole is much smoother these days 1 Share this post Link to post Share on other sites

Same engine as used for the previous 2 home meetings, both scoring double figures. Just getting out the starts were the problem against Ipswich, no need to panic. 2 Share this post Link to post Share on other sites

What concerns me is 3 heat wins in 29 starts so far this season, compared to 77 starts and 30 heat wins last season. If we aim for a play off place, and to do something if we get there, i think we will need more HT wins from Richard. Maybe he has been struggling with his starts all season so far ?, compared to last. Your obviously privy to more than us. But hope he finds the solution Edited June 14, 2022 by Bald Bloke Share this post Link to post Share on other sites
Arch Stanton 2,255 Posted June 14, 2022 His starting is his biggest asset. Normally razor sharp from the gate is Lawson. Share this post Link to post Share on other sites

tellboy 3,662 Posted June 15, 2022 Jack Thomas faces 6-8 weeks out with his injuries.Apparently Lynn are looking at options to replace him.Imo it needs doing as i can't see Mulford achieving what Thomas has done,although will be ok as a no8.Will there be anyone who could come in and do a job like Jack has done,Shanes,Edwards,Clegg probably the best options so far but probably not a Jack's level imo.

I think he stepped down from the side like he did with Leicester. Belle Vue have also given permission to Connor Bailey to look for another club apparently that was posted by someone ITK on the Peterborough thread. He could fill the role until Jack recovers.
