Buster won't be able to pay as King's Lynn is overbudget Financial penalty might be straw that breaks camel’s back. Morris making fool of himself by talking about penalties in such circumstances. What does he suggest kings Lynn do?. A vastly under-strength Stars team wouldn’t attract a crowd and put Kings Lynn in an even bigger mess. Not a good advert for having someone independent running things. 1 Share this post Link to post Share on other sites

arnieg 3,651 Posted August 16, 2023 Were Redcar given the option of postponing their match at Sheffield in 2017? [Due to injury Redcar's announced line up contained six guests and r/r] 5 Share this post Link to post Share on other sites
Haza 1,774 Posted August 16, 2023 Perhaps some people would have more sympathy if dubious calls hadn’t happened in the past - yes I no this call off is for real but in the past there been some very dodgy call offs notably the pit gate incident. Ipswich should be awarded the points but then that’s unfair on season ticket holders . 2 Share this post Link to post Share on other sites

Would save Bluster a packet too compared with running thd meeting....... 1 Share this post Link to post Share on other sites
