The feature the last couple of years is they seem to do something to themselves that loses momentum just at the point where they could be contending!

oh well onto next year for them!

The Ben Cook injury and covering for him when he was #5 in the averages was the main issue but it was Kvech getting cleaned up in Gorzow which was the dagger to the heart of Lynn's season. Away wins at BV and Brum went begging as a result and he struggled with his shoulder for a while after.

No surprise that we are finishing strongly with the top six all present and fit! As you say what might have been (an all too familiar tale).

Also just been informed that if we'd won that BV away fixture when Jan was injured and beaten them at home in April when we had all those engine failures and only lost by two then we'd be going into Monday's meeting with Sheffield with fourth place in our own hands 😩

The fine margins of sport!

And those engines failures in April mattered but Belle Vue’s tonight didn’t?

Not like you to be defensive about your own team 😁 have a day off with the bias.

Nobody is saying that anything matters more than anything else, its just an example of how things could have been different. And shows that from a Lynn perspective we weren't a million miles away. All ifs, buts and maybes of course.

So don't go looking for a disagreement where there isn't one, theres a good lad 👍
