CitizenTyler Posted November 22, 2021 Report Share Posted November 22, 2021 About as good a replacement as they could have got. Lawson was fire around Plymouth though so it is a loss for sure. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Doners123 Posted November 22, 2021 Report Share Posted November 22, 2021 (edited) Same as on Poole thread but Who would Plymouth have selected if they had the choice between the two had they both wanted to come. Have Plymouth benefited by the fact Poole have taken Lawson ? Edited November 22, 2021 by Doners123 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Bagpuss Posted November 22, 2021 Report Share Posted November 22, 2021 So it's been suggested that it's not about money or averages, one therefore assumes (operative word here) that one of the parties had something they consider better come their way since the initial agreement? All a bit unusual though. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Very weird, as if Poole just went with Stevie and King that would still be considered top heavy-ish, so I don't buy Poole went after him, doesn't add up imo. I think Phil said it was about a sponsor but would that come under 'money' ? Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Does give the Gladiators an extra 0.5 ish to rearrange the middle order slightly. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

I could understand it if Stevie or Danny said they didn't want to come back. But to my knowledge they both said they want to. There is a saying on this forum 'when in doubt, blame Poole..' Guess this is what is happening cos people seem to be taking wild guesses! 2 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Think Richard might be a bit scarred from his Eastbourne treatment so he didn't want to take any chances of lightening striking twice so to speak.
