You could argue that someone who was on trial, never played a competitive game or signed a contract is not actually an ex-Linnet??

Fair comment but a missed opportunity. Setch obviously saw his potential when we didn't.

Scored again in the 3-0 win versus Rugby.

Scored in the 2-0 win at Hinkley

Boston?

The sad thing is he probably has more of an affinity with Wroxham than he does his home town club.

Scored again in Lincoln's 2-0 win at Port Vale

Secured all three points for Lincoln v Exeter, with a clinical striker's finish. His first goal for the Imps.

An obvious succeeder in the making while at Lynn.  I recall the advice on here that "Carey should be put on loan while he  learns the game"!  Sam Kelly wasn't rated either.  People go on muscle rather than ability for some strange reason!

.
Xavi, Iniesta and even Messi might well have been rejected by the academy system at the time they were emerging in Barcelona!

Scored two last night in Blackpool's 3-3 draw at Fleetwood.

Scored again yesterday. Excellent finish. A proper striker's goal.

The current and most recent regimes seem to have a problem with retaining and developing local players with potential, that is both illogical and self defeating. Joe Taylor being the obvious stand out example but there are others, including those mentioned in this thread. By way of additional example: Fletcher Toll, who was outstanding on Saturday in spite of his recent Linnet experience and then there is a sixteen year old striker, James Moore (?) playing and scoring for Downham, who are currently riding high. But why would any local young player of potential consider joining Lynn in this climate?

Seasons Loan to Colchester

Joe comes across as a sensible well balanced young man. I hope he scores lots of goals for Colchester.

They'll be ok if they find themselves in a pecalty shoot out.

I agree but don't think we exploited his pace very effectively and he should have started more often in my opinion.
