If it's for financial reasons why have they not sold him as having still pay 30% of his wages when loaning him out to a much bigger club seems rather strange.  If they want to cut costs there is a player in the squad rumoured to be on a hellva lot more than that

Trust money won't go far with those sort of wages. Is a player at step 2 really worth that amount ?

In fairness with an offer of a low single digit share holding for the Trust they are giving their money anyway. So next to no difference in handing it over for nothing now.

Let's hope we create our own fireworks on the pitch with Cully's 3rd home coming.  Might take a few weeks do get the supporters enthusiasm back after a few disappointing weeks.

Cully dug Cleeve out of a hole after the Clark appointment.  Looks very much like he is having to do the same thing yet again.

A win of any sort tomorrow night will do.  The confidence levels need picking right back up then Cully can start to weave his magic again over the weeks leading up to Christmas.

It's good to see Culverhouse back even if it took 5/6 weeks.

Quote from: Mallard on November 02, 2025, 02:27:13 PMRowe had a team on a high while Culverhouse has inherited a team on the floor.

We all know why that is.

The last league game win for Rowe was August 30th against a team that spent 7 hours on the bus and arrived late. Did he really leave a team 'on a high'?


Followed by a narrow lose to Kiddy. A point on the road at both Alfreton and Marine.  Tearing Chesham apart in the Cup.   Then a few days after he went sticking one into Royston.  So yeah on a high I would have said.

Maybe, just maybe Jo and his side kick Bal have decided it's not worth all the hassle of taking over the shares therefore no point in asking the Trust for money as they don't need it now after all.

The idea is to run the business without having a benefactor propping it up, so just start as you mean to go on.  This full time mark isn't really working for Lynn.  Other full time Clubs are  sitting in the top 6.  I bet Bal's monthly report to Jo on the state of the party must making for some interesting reading

He might need a bit of money though that should be available as the squad seems somewhat tighter than the start of the season with players out on loan the odd one having left.

I'm sure if Rowe could get a tune out of this group then for sure Culverhouse will.  Big thing seems to be the confidence factor.  Rowe had a team on a high while Culverhouse has inherited a team on the floor.

We all know why that is.

As Cully said it's a start.  Interesting interview about how fragile the players are.

Then again hardly surprising after the time it took to get someone in.

Bernie and Jonno weren't unhappy with their lot under Nev & Co at Salford, as I recall.

How many training session is the difference between full time and part time ? 

I would think the trouble with a part time model at Lynn is attracting players from areas that are over and hour away.  Mind Cully never had an issue in attracting local players of the required standard.

I have full faith in Culverhouse, based on his previous record at this level.  However he has a real job on to pick the squad back up after the run we have been on.

Who knows what damage has been done. Time will tell I guess.

If Cully was the first or even the 2nd choice , as has been rumoured why oh why has it taken Bal so long to get this over the line?
Cully an Bazza  were not on contract so this could have happened PDQ after Rowe went.

Was the real hope that JS would have worked out this  saving a tidy sum ?  Instead look at what it has cost us in terms of League position.

I do wonder if Cully will
Look to reinstate Jonah between the sticks and let one of the other two keepers leave.  We don't need 3. That would free up some budget.

Also as  we seem to be firing blanks up top will he bring Toll back to have a proper look at him.

Tinder ?  Who did he play for ?

I feel many were hoping that when Jo and his sidekick Bal came onboard we would see an upgrade on Cleeve. Sadly many feel they have seen nothing to support that.

As for Cleeve not being involved he seemed happy sitting in the Directors box at the Darlo game earlier in the season and tell their Board how it was just a sideways move for him at the Club. 🤷�♂️
