Yes there’s a plan.

Thanks for worrying about us though.

Personally, welcome other club supporters to contributing to this site. Diversity is the word. It will be brilliant for local football if both King's Lynn Town and The Pilgrims were to gain promotion to the National League this season. Give my regards to ex-Norwich United players Sonny and Nat - both did great service to The Planters in their time!

King's Lynn have signed.... Dayle Southwell, permanently.
I create YouTube videos (BUFC/FM/CM 01-02), and stream Football Manager on Twitch as BostonUnitedFM.

I understand Craig was in for him, but turned us down.

So who sits on the bench as the impact player, Southwell, Gash or Marriott ?

if you're top of the league why would you split your successful 2 front men? Unless forced of course.
He who would valiant be , 'gainst all disaster.
Let him in constancy follow the master.
There's no discouragement shall make him once relent
His first avowed intent, to be a Pilgrim.

Apparently he cost an absolute fortune, and has probably just took up all of your budget for the rest of the season,  let's hope his injuries don't come back.
You have paid massively over the odds for a player that had done very little for 3 seasons.

I have heard a rumour that Marriott is on his way to a Midlands based club.

KL have released 2 players, one of which is Harry Limb. I know he's been on loan at Boston Town this season, but maybe he'd be worth a shot for us? Still only 20.

Would he? Has been at Pinchbeck United & as you say Boston Town over the last few months and hardly set the world alight at either. I don't think this Burnley move did him any good at all.

Can we stop this 'he'll do a job for us' or 'worth a look' talk please?

The lad has been at FC and Holbeach and done nothing so its clear he's nowhere near good enough for us.

Just because he's local doesn't mean we should take pity on him.

Hearing what money Southwell has signed for it's clear Dayle's a luxury well out of our price range. We wouldn't be able to get close to matching what Lynn are paying him. None of that is meant as a criticism. It is what it is. If Lynn are sustainable and can afford those kind of wages, fair play.

But I'm guessing sustainability isn't a word employed too often in the Kings Lynn boardroom..........

Yeah, like I said, it's a huge "if". But Stephen Cleeve is by his own admission bankrolling the club and seems like a thoroughly unpleasant individual with a pretty dodgy background in his business dealings.... so I guess we'll see how this all pans out eh?
