Prior to today, Scunthorpe had only managed 6 goals in their last 6 games. That's only one more than Lynn managed over the same amount of games. In fact, they hadn't won any of their last 6 home games.

I think it's reasonable if people expected something out of today's game, even if it was only a share of the points. No doubt AL was expecting a very tough game, but money on it that he never thought he would be 3 down at HT. I'm sure he was expecting to come away with something today.

Scunthorpe must have been ecstatic. Only 6 goals in 6 games and and no win in their previous 6 home games, and then they see three goals going in after 49 minutes.........I bet they didn't expect to see that!

As Mallard has said, the January games will say a lot about where we are as a team.

A grim trip up north for Linnets as they lose 3-0 away to Scunthorpe, in the last game of the year.

All the goals were scored n the first half.

Att: 4165.

Lynn drop to 4th place.

Scunthorpe move to the top of the league.

Happy new year to all Lynn Supporters.

I confess to not having been to The Walks for quite a while, and just watch whatever is available on video. I’ve see enough, however, to wonder why Crane is always on the bench.  He appears to have some of the pace and skill that we completely lack on too many occasions, and he seems to fall into the trap suffered by Barrett when he was here and clearly the best player in the club at the time.  Managers often convince themselves that they possess some kind of tactical knowledge that makes them rely on their Subbuteo Board formations in which the most skilful players are surplus to requirements. It’s complete nonsense!  Successful teams are those that, believe it or not, actually pick their best players!  You might not win with them, but you sure as Hades won’t without them!

And of course, unlike Pep, they need a Plan B.

Are we really a full-time club? Never seen so much head tennis since the Webb days at Southern Prem level and that was the level of football played. Very poor. We seem to drop down to the level of the teams we face and fare better by higher clubs

Do you think AL will have his full time squad in for training tomorrow, to iron out a few problems that were apparently evident to him today?

Lynn draw 2-2 against Needham Market at Walks.

With Curzon suffering another home defeat today, they drop to second as Kidderminster leap frog into 1st spot, following their 3-0 away win at Hereford.

Lynn drop to 3rd, equal on points to Curzon, who have a superior goal difference.

Is there to be a new Commercial Manager, or was it an urban myth?  If we do manage to go up, such an appointment would appear to be essential.

 

I had a look but couldn't find anything.

Sounds good to me 

I do find it odd that people don't seem to post much after a win. Had we lost there would have been a back and forth trying to work out who did, or didn't do, what.

Perhaps they're all still in a heightened state of euphoria 😉

I shall now return to my own post - match winning "happy place" (which includes Cadburys Dairy Milk and bingeing Gold Rush) Other brands and programmes are available...

It was an away win.

More people comment when it's a home win, presumably because more of them would have been at the game.
