T.N.T. Posted February 2, 2015 Author Report Share Posted February 2, 2015 Must have missed that bit, didn't Lakeside only recently buy him from Workington ? As far as I am aware it is the team that the rider is an asset of gets priority.............so for example Richard Lawson has now gone on a full transfer to Glasgow so they get priority over Lakeside Sorry, understand that part but what if not a asset of either club. That's what hasn't yet been confirmed. Think it is still the PL club that gets priority Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

T.N.T. Posted February 2, 2015 Author Report Share Posted February 2, 2015 Lakeside failed to buy him. Was only announced today about him being brought by Glasgow. Didn't Lakeside get priority over Lawson last season ? If he was not an asset, those points scored should have been taken out of those meetings. OK - Lakeside fell way short and looking at their results there wasn't many close matches, but had Lakeside of snatched fourth place or even a team lost fourth place because Lawson scored enough to stop them getting three points, this can't happen again. Assets have to be assets and not awaiting payment. If the full transfer fee has not been paid then they are still assets of their former clubs.

TonyE Posted February 3, 2015 Report Share Posted February 3, 2015 Didn't Workington 'exercise' a buy back clause put in the original sale contract to Lakeside? Do not think it is an instance of Lakeside not paying - they do not do things like that. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
SCB Posted February 3, 2015 Report Share Posted February 3, 2015 Im guessing Glasgow started to splash their cash and Workington saw the buy back clause as a great way to get an OTT price for Lawson fro Glasgow. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

T.N.T. Posted February 7, 2015 Author Report Share Posted February 7, 2015 Don't see Meidzinski making Swindon play off contenders so will stick with them not getting in the top four but may just beat Leicester (or Wolves) to miss out on the wooden spoon.

mdmc82 Posted February 7, 2015 Report Share Posted February 7, 2015 Wolves and Swindon chase for the spoon I personally think Swindon look more like play off team on paper. Their downfall may be down to reserve clashes or away form. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

customhouseregular Posted February 7, 2015 Report Share Posted February 7, 2015 With only 8 teams competing and half the league making play-offs, the end result does not mean much. A 13-15 team league with teams meeting each other once home/once away, and the team finishing first are champions is much more meaningful. If the team finishing 4th. out of 8 wins the play-off final, are they worthy champions?. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

pugwash Posted February 8, 2015 Report Share Posted February 8, 2015 A 13-15 team league with teams meeting each other once home/once away, and the team finishing first are champions is much more meaningful. Possibly so. But with teams like Ipswich HIDING in the PL we'll never get a full compliment of 13-15 teams. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
INCOGNITO Posted February 8, 2015 Report Share Posted February 8, 2015 Lakeside may struggle more than many think especially now Lawson will be missing a number of matches and they don't have the best reserves so I could see them near the bottom if they lose a few at home. Wolves don't look great but if Ben Barker fills the last place it could be a decent signing and if the averages of Lindgren and Musielak drop in the first half of the season you could see Woffinden or Pawlicki coming in at the run in. Swindon are not too bad but can Meidzinski get anywhere near an 8 average in this format and will Morris be able to score as a heat leader. A long with Leicester those look the four weakest but Belle Vue always seem to fall short and if they do again it could be Wolves that step up to the top four. Poole Coventry Kings Lynn and Wolverhampton in the top four with a Poole v Coventry final yet again Leicester the wooden spoon winners but Swindon not far above them.
