Do Lynn do season tickets nowadays? I'd heard they don't. Agree though the meeting must be run. Share this post Link to post Share on other sites

That happened before the play-off era if the Champions won with meetings in hand. But they still completed their fixtures. But I do agree it looks stupid completing league matches after the play-offs, not that I'm suggesting the matches shouldn't be run - just make sure the league is completed first!

TINYS 292 Posted October 6, 2022 Kings lynn v Belle Vue should never have been postponed in the first place but someone thought it was going to rain so it was called off the day before but as it turned out there wasn't a drop of rain that day. Maybe they should stop calling off meetings the day before because they think it might rain. 2 Share this post Link to post Share on other sites

Teams are able to call meetings off with impunity if they think they’ll be onto a better thing at a later date. Not all teams however, one tried it and the BSPL/BSL cartel went into overdrive. Buster will get a better crowd when it’s run as Stars favourite Robert will be there and the say cheats never prospers. Go figure. 1 Share this post Link to post Share on other sites

Wouldn’t hold your breath Robert Lambert will be there when it’s run - the smart money is on Simon Lambert being there rather than Robert Edited October 10, 2022 by Haza 1 Share this post Link to post Share on other sites

I agree the club should be punished as the meeting should never have been called of in the first place as this meeting was due to have been on Eurosport and if there is payment for the tv meetings Lynn definitely should not get any payment this season - though not running this meeting stops deliberate average reduction.
