Yep in 1985 Martin Rogers spent a few quid on Courtney and Paul Woods with neither signing working out. I think Lee made his comeback that year but only rode in less than half of the fixtures. Jessup, Hellsen, Jolly and Regeling made up the test of the team but nobody stepped up to replace John Louis who retired after the 1984 season. A team full of second strings which of course finished bottom.

'86 was Schwartz. Richard Knight was in the same boat in 1987.

Lynn ditched the yellow/gold & green in 1993 but let's be honest they had quite a few lean years between 1980 and then!

Pretty alarming that some folk can't distinguish tribalism from abuse and violence.

Well done Scunny but a long way short of being enough. -
No reason to fleece loyal fans who've been going all season though. This is something which has always irritated me.

Nothing wrong with the team that was picked, just the way it performed. Could maybe question the Paco/Jenkins signings as they never worked out but the team failed because Fricke's average dropped alarmingly and he never looked comfortable at Lynn, and because Cook & Kvech failed to kick on. The promotion need to find out why those things happened.

Not unusual but a p!sstake nevertheless.

Dr Dickson at it again. -
Latest Pride of the East episode where we wax lyrical about Robert Lambert (and Richard Coleman!)

Every club had a budget of course but I'd be amazed if this Lynn side wasn't the most expensive ever and up there with any other team in the league in terms of cost. This team should have comfortably finished top four as we were pretty injury free, there are obviously underlying reasons why it didnt happen.

Couple of things, you are only going to entice clubs up with a TV deal which would help cover those increased costs and as far as I'm aware there is very little difference between the two leagues in terms of admission. At the end of the day the whole idea of competitive sport is to be as good as you can be, or it should be anyway.

Wa gonna say Bournemouth are likely to be out by then! In any case its not every Thursday, shouldn't be an issue to keep the fixtures apart.

It was only a matter of time before somebody from Poole piped up, their slice of cake has been bigger than most others for a fair while after all.
