After last nights disappointment I would say Tommy would be hoping to bring at least one in for Saturday.  He can’t afford two slip ups on the trot.   If no one comes in I can’t see it being through TW not trying but maybe more that SC’s chequebook isn't open wide enough.

What if the Hokey Cokey really is what it’s all about ?

A must win game on Saturday with Scarborough v Brackley up against each other.

A chance to pull back some points on title rivals, fail and the pressure is on.

Well we have a chance to watch Kidderminster V Chester live on BT Sport tonight. Chester looked good against us.

Unfortunately though thanks to a minority that £6000 fine would’ve gone along way to signing someone.

Well our newly appointed Commercial won’t be bringing anything in going forward as he is no longer with us.

Why was it a shock that we lost at Farsley. We are not the team some people think we are. I don’t normally fully agree with Dilly’s posts, which are basically go all out attack, but not sharing with Charles was surprising. Even though we were away, it was to the second from bottom team who had conceded 37 goals. They are there for a reason. Barrett is a midfielder, not a forward, so we started with just one recognised forward.
Until Stephens and Ponticelli are back and fully fit, Charles should surely be partnering Omotayo from the start. Losing to Farsley isn’t the end of the world, there’s a long way to go.
As for bringing in a forward, I think if that was going to happen it would have done by now. Personally, just start with two (KC and GO) that we have.

At the beginning of the season most on here thought we would finish mid table. Because we've started so well and now have had a couple of games under par people think its going pear shape. This happens in the season. We still have games in hand. I'm happy with the way things are going at the moment. Yes we can improve and the games in hand can put us back on track. Don't give up. :scarf:

Anton, over all the football is much more pleasing on the eye than last season. Most teams will have blips and if you’re going to lose, then it’s better to do do against a team down the bottom, rather than the top. With a fully fit squad, we should, on what I’ve seen, be capable of a play off place, we would have took that at the start of the season. We play some really good football at times, so I’m certainly not giving up. I’ve watched Lynn for over 50 years and have seen some dire times, but never given up.

Interestingly TW’s full time team is 3 points worse off than IC’s part time teams after 19 games when we last played at this level.   Mind IC had Marriot and Gash up top.

I think the majority would agree, that our current number 9 isn’t a patch on Marriott, albeit he was number 10.
Whilst we have the players we have, we have to back them and Tommy’s judgement.

Chesters away win at Kidderminster tonight sees us drop to 5th in the table.

Dillification is not just “all out attack”, although it is when playing the bottom teams in the league!!! I don’t go for systems, formations, and all the cliches that go with them… Except for one…. I do think 3-5-2 is the best and possibly only one that represents the Dilly plan.  It’s only 352, 442, 433, etc, in Subbuteo, because on the pitch the players MOVE!  With 3-5-2 it means when the opponents have the ball, there are 9 players defending (incl the keeper).  Then when the team has the ball, there are 7 players attacking.  In other words, a Dilly team outnumbers the opponents all the time…. And yes, we should have played Charles or Waller instead of yet another defender.  TW has done so well, but he’s too careful, especially in away games, according to Dillification.
