STEVEHOLS54 380 Posted December 12, 2022 14 minutes ago, Skidder1 said: A very good offer made way back in September!! Then the whole thing made perfect sense in my opinion. Danny Ford knew well in advance the new points limit would be 40 so knew he had the difficult decision of losing one of the three H/L. If King had a good offer on the talbe already and if it was above what Poole are normally prepared to offer, (and even if it was similar to Poole), then that decision was made easier to release him if Worrall & Lawson were happy to continue in 2023. My own opinion was it was totally amicable and an agreed wording and an excellent media write up was agreed upon by both to reflect how difficult the decision had been to release him and what a great servant he had been to the club in the 2 seasons he had been with then in Champ. A good piece of PR all round and both come out of it with credit. Share this post Link to post Share on other sites

Thought this was for discussing Plymouth Yeah it was talking about Kyle being an out and out No1, then got an to Lawson being one and kind of escalated from there. If the Poole management gave us a signing we could talk about that on the correct thread. I blame them 4 Share this post Link to post Share on other sites

Jaizer 2,867 Posted December 12, 2022 With this 40 point limit seems to be getting a lot of 2 pointers thrown in at the deep end to sink or swim. Good luck to them but for my money most could do with at least another season at NDL level 1 Share this post Link to post Share on other sites

HGould 2,213 Posted December 12, 2022 Got to fear for the kid with Gary May's track record of trashing weak reserves and giving them no encouragement other than programme fodder. The way he treated Atkins and others before him. Can see another season of revolving reserves at The Coliseum. Share this post Link to post Share on other sites
