Part of that is because of lack of riders, often the only riders available to strengthen a team are ones dropped from other teams. 2 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Did Buster fancy paying both Laguta and Lambert's wages from Kings Lynn income? Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

I never mentioned the points limit. Didn't Buster go on record a few weeks ago saying that the King's Lynn team was over budget with Laguta and he wished that they got the crowds that Peterborough did? All very convenient.

TTT Posted August 26, 2023 Report Share Posted August 26, 2023 WTF is happening? We've gone from Andersen and Worrall to Laguta and Tarasenko. At least we're going out in a blaze now, I can't see us losing another meeting with our 1-7. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
TTT Posted August 26, 2023 Report Share Posted August 26, 2023 Tomalin is obviously paying for Laguta because Buster certainly can't afford to pay him and R. Lambert otherwise both would've been at KL. Question now is will we be running in 2024 considering Tomalin is now backing up the pre-season hype? No reason to splash out big money at this late stage if we're 100% doomed. 1 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
JoeW436 Posted August 27, 2023 Report Share Posted August 27, 2023 Sad to see Patryk go but fantastic to get Artem in, the showground will suit him far better than the Norfolk arena. 1 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

This is exactly the kind of side we've needed all season. Uncle Artem and nephew Vadim in the same team.

Maybe trying to give you a big send off? 1 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Yeah hes always had a soft spot really for the pussycats Think Cooks situation was to do with his rolling average at the time not an assessed average Edited August 27, 2023 by scoobydoo Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

I think most teams has done this over the years.This is why I don't like the idea that the last day for an average is something like 23rd of a month but it doesn't come into effect until the 1st of the next month.This gives teams a week to do this kind of thing. 1 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

scoobydoo Posted August 27, 2023 Report Share Posted August 27, 2023 Looks like Scott Nicholls should of asked Patryk Wojdylo if he was coming back next week not next year!! 6 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
