No, sorry, didn’t enquire about anything virtual. But he did say he will reply to any queries from fans, either by email or in person at the press box on match days.

Just had a reply from Travis. Good news, match highlights will be available the day after a home game, starting this Saturday against Leamington. Apparently there has been a logistical issue which has now been resolved.

As it happens, I emailed Travis, the media man, yesterday to ask what has happened to match highlights. Will post when I get a reply.

With the improvement of media coverage in recent weeks I was hoping to see Lynn’s opening day victory on the club’s YouTube channel. Alas, so far no show. Instead, I was able to watch Warrington’s version with commentary. And very fair it is. Lynn should, at least, be able to offer this for home games which, for long-distance fans like me, would be appreciated. On the plus side, the manager gets good coverage after each match.

Sorry, I meant Crowe not Crane!

Does anyone know why Coulson, Crane, Chong and Oke are not featuring in the friendlies. The manager is interviewed after each match but he is not asked about absentees. The media department is suppose to be trying to up its game - surely this is something fans would like to know?

For many of us information coming out of the club has been patchy. I don’t do social media so am relying on the club’s website for information. This has been well below par on the whole. The head of media, Travis Wright, has now penned an update of the media team’s plans etc. He is also asking for feedback from fans. This is a good opportunity to voice our concerns and provide ideas for improvement.

Makes you wonder if anyone other than invited guests attended. Surely the local media men should have covered it. If not, why not?

Any further news on McCammon joining from Peterborough Sports? I recall he is a midfield man. When do the Linnets start training or have they started?

This smacks of the Lynn News wanting Mr Wild back as MP. On the other hand, how many constituents really give a care about Lynn FC? And will Mr Wild still be a supporter if he fails to get re-elected?

Sorry, I’m completely mystified by this topic. Can someone please enlighten me?

Keeping fans updated is very patchy. For a full-time professional club the media output is well-below par. More Southern League standard than National League. I emailed the club a couple of weeks ago pointing out the first team pen pictures on the website were hopelessly out of date and remained the same throughout last season. It included a player Adam Lakeland booted out early in his managerial reign. It remains unchanged. Having seen the club, apparently, on the brink of collapse last season I would have thought the owner would be keeping supporters informed about the current financial situation.

He has joined newly promoted Mansfield on two-year deal.

Possession-based, free flowing football and winning matches is the ideal. Man City, Arsenal and Liverpool have the players to do that. Most of the other big clubs try to match that but fall short. You have to be realistic and realise at National League level the old virtues of effort, commitment and organisation, backed by sound defending, are the main attributes. And if you are lucky your team will have two or three players with skill and flair to raise fans’ pulses. Achieving that balance is the key to next season for Lynn but so much depends on what budget is available for Mr Lakeland to attract the players he wants.

The starting point for any professional sportsman is surely to be 100percent fit. Clearly Mr Lakeland felt Lynn players were well short of that bottom line. He will have a full pre-season to make sure that doesn’t happen again. He admits recruitment is the hardest part of the manager’s job. And clearly at elite level that has largely been taken away from the coaches. He will no doubt want to improve Lynn’s skills level next season and that should lead to more attractive football. This season he had to survive relegation and generally that means players rolling their sleeves up, fighting the cause and not worrying about how pretty it looks. Lynn financial situation, whatever that is, will have a massive impact on the quality of player they can attract. Having saved Lynn from relegation he deserves respect from fans and the chance to build a squad capable of challenging for promotion.
