Have to give full credit to PC.  He has certainly turned things around.   Feel we can breath a sigh of relief with regard to relegation now. It's been a very strange ole season.

I see the same media outlet is now giving us two match reports.  It's interesting as it seems quite obvious that one report is coming from a reporter who is actually at the game while the other it seems is just cobbled together from the radio commentary.

Interesting we have signed a player on a multi year deal.  Certainly puts out a strong message, going forward.

Geo you mention about works  not being completed.  What works needed to be carried out?  Did this involve the problem of rooting wood etc in the main stand ?

The fans won't be able to accuse Bal of dragging his feet on appointing a successor to Cully.  However with Cully shown the door am yesterday and the new guy being announced pm yesterday, it does beg the question how many other Managers were approached and/ir interviewed ?

I really hope Bal gets one right for a change and the new guy can work with him

If the CEO can't get the basics right then the rest of it falls

Surely a prime piece of land beside The Walks would be worth more than the cost of building a ground on the outskirts ?

Just asking what people think the idea of the club relocating to a new purpose built, out of town new Ground ?

Historically the pitch suffers when we get heavy rain and the drainage system can't cope.  When we get freezing conditions the area under the main stand never thaws.  Factor in the stand needs some serious money spent on it with rotting timbers etc.  Generally the ground is looking very run down.  With improvements  needed  to pass the latest Ground grading is The Walks coming to the end of its shelf live ?

It's a tough call. If the Council provided a modern ground  with training facilities and an artificial pitch ok  All funded by the sale of The Walks for development  On the other side we have a Town Centre location steeped in history. 

What are people's thoughts ?

I understand that Bal was over in Ireland last weekend.  Was this to look for further investment and did the trip prove successful ?

I know hindsight ( for some ) is a wonderful thing but I do wonder if the membership were asked to vote again today to throw circa 100k at TSI whether the Trust Board would still get the same result.

Are Lynn in the position they are BECAUSE of Cully or DESPITE Cully ?

Each week we hear need to bring someone in at the top end and each week goes by where we have been outbid for each player. 

The Co owners with a full time CEO seem to be making a real dogs turd of a job since coming together.

Cully maybe is at the end.  Sacked from Lynn, sacked from Boston, relegated with St Albans now facing  a relegation dog fight with a seemingly 'restricted' budget.   It must all take its toll.

I seem to recall Bal was negotiating to get that loan reduced.  Still there was  a good few things he is was going to do.
