General Discussion / Re: Play offs
« on: April 24, 2024, 01:00:05 PM »
All absolute madness...throw in VAR too......anything to hype the game up to a frenzy while the fundamentals of the game get ever more diluted in terms of stature and meaning.

The teams most deserving of promotion and best equipped to stay in the higher league are those that finish in the top spots after 42/46 games. (depending on the league format). That is especially true of the NL set up. How a team that just makes the playoffs and finishes well behind the top two in the NLN or NLS is supposed to be able to cope in the NL, heaven knows.

Certainly one to forget this one.   In the end it was job done.  AL has an important couple of months ahead in terms of recruitment.   

Which of the Lynn owned players would you keep for next season ?

Jones
McFadden
Hargreaves
Walker ( a given)
Margetts
Crowe
Stephens
Hughes

Jones as back up to Dixon-Hodge, Hargreaves, Margetts and Crowe.

If the budget allows Stephens as Hughes as squad players.

Need someone like Barrows (right back who can also play centre half) plus two new centre halves, 2 new midfielders and a couple of forwards as a minimum, I would think.

All need to be hard working fit individuals with experience at this level. If they have a bit of flair, that's a bonus. Times have moved on........Bowles, Marsh, Currie etc, although fun in the day wouldn't get in a starting eleven these days unless their fitness and work rate improved dramatically .
Any player who has the required fitness level for NL and great flair to go with it , will be in the EFl.......we have to be realistic in terms of the football we expect, I feel.......the only exception would be the inducement of a huge budget and wages to attract EFL players in (Wrexham for example).

That does seem a bit strange…..couldn’t get a regular place in Culverhouse’s Lynn side…..farmed out on loan to Dover where he did well…Chesterfield say he is sought after and sign him from Lynn for an undisclosed fee…mutually agrees with Chesterfield to cut the contract short so he can sign again for Culverhouse. ???

Agree on both counts Rod. I am hoping we will have more pace and power in the side generally this year, while still playing decent stuff. Maybe we can ditch the big man little man model upfront (?) and go for someone with genuine pace alongside Ponticelli and Stephens .
