Credit where its due: an excellent three points. I can only base my view on results and comment as i no longer go to matches but are the tactics and the way the team is set up better suited to away than home games?

With David newton he has a track record of being a successful businessman and you can see and know what his business is and where his wealth comes from and what he's done over the years to get where he is now.He also took on a club that was on its knees after all the problems and fall out they had when Steve Evans was there.It must be nice to have a Chairman where you can actually see and check the facts
In a word, transparency?!

They got David Newton we got Stephen Cleeve.
Agreed, but the difference is they inform their fans what is being planned and happening behind the scenes. The fans over there feel connected to the club.
A community club that truly values its SUPPORTERS.

Interesting comments Tony. If there is no Jo next season and no other outside investment coming into the Club then maybe part time will be the natural outcome. We were discussing this on the way home tonight. As a part time Club who would the fans want in as Manager?
A. Jimmy Dean B. Michael Gash C. Gary Setchell. All 3 hare enjoying reasonably successful years at varying levels.
Who would Lynn fans go for ?
If those were the only choices (god help us) it would have to be Gash (with Luke Steele).
Need more than God to help us! 
I thought that 'God' was running the club

One or two seem to think if we had local players its a dead cert we would be back in the UCL. Well I think we could have a good mix of both, local and semi pro, look at the good local talent we have let go on the cheap, players like Joe Taylor, who scored for Huddersfield yesterday, comes to mind.
The biggest disapointment is that we are a full time club, and i for one have yet to see any benefit. As for the manager, well sorry he is nowhere the best in the league, as has been said we seem to set up not to lose, which doesnt work, two good attacking wide players on the bench? Ive seen enough this season. The club needs a clear out from top to bottom.
Just one point here that I believe to be important.
It's not Lakeland that claims he's the best Manager in the League. I've never actually seen anything where he has ever said that.
I think it was 'the best club owner' in the league who made that statement?

I am only surprised that has taken quite a while for some to come to the conclusion that our club has become disconnected from many of its most loyal and long term supporters. As i have stated on numerous occasions, those that control the club do not understand the difference between a supporter and a customer. We have become a club that has 'lost its soul'.
I still follow from a distance and much miss match day at the Walks but have no intention of returning under the present regime.

I wouldn't have paid 75p. I'll bet he couldn't believe his full time contract luck!

Did we actually try to sign Toll, I didn’t think we did. Wasn’t he on a short trial with us.
Re B&G “would AL want his contract renewed”, hopefully not, but I’m sure he will feel he hasn’t achieved what he would have hoped for, unless of course we make the playoffs and gain promotion.
We were playing Stockport and Wrexham not long ago, they are both in play off places in League One now. We don’t have the financial backing or support that they do, so where is our level.
If we don’t gain promotion, will we go part time.
The story I heard is that we did try to sign him but he preferred to work with Setch.
Sensible young man.

Who knows maybe it’s getting to AL. The travelling to Norfolk from the North West, the frustration of players not wanting to come to Lynn and indeed a player choosing to go to part time Alfreton. Chuck in the fact we were in their challenging for the top shop a few short weeks ago. Come Tuesday we could well be outside the play off places.
Even the situation with Cleeve, Jo/Bal situation might be giving him concern
Surely a manager with such a stellar reputation wouldn't have 'signed on the dotted line' without doing some basic due diligence re such as ownership structure, implication of our location and its possible impact on player recruitment, added to the need to regularly be up at the crack of dawn to travel down to his place of work etc etc?

Just watched AL's post match interview. Made me feel like phoning the Samaritans. Mr Motivator he is not. More like Mr Moaner. Bumpy pitch, Margetts fell over too easily, it is down to the players not him. He didn't come across as being particularly enthusiastic about the current state of play.

Nothing really changes. Smoke and mirrors!

I'm a bit surprised that he didn't also bemoan the fact that they were unlucky to come up against two Campbells who condensed the action into the conversion of two scoring opportunities?

Maybe an opportunity to attract an anonymous sponsor?
This seems to encapsulate KLTFC?
