Second.


He was at Fylde

See the old owner has sold out to foreign consortium, I can never understand taking over a non league club especially in an area such as Kings Lynn. Very rural and limited fan base, strange acquisition.
God I hate this league.

Not much competition in the area though



Who’s nearest? Boston? Lincoln? Norwich?


Build a stand to hold 4000, Chuck a few quid at the playing squad and you’d get a good shout at the EFL


Wrexham and Disney changed things. If nothing else but in the eyes of gullible foreigners eyes
A new hope.

They've got local rivals in Cheltenham, the Bristols, Swindon, Gloucester City & Bath. King's Lynn are deffo out on a limb.

Cringe Lynn. What have you done!

This is what I hate about football. It’s so shallow. Why would you want anyone like James Rowe at your club.


So your saying anyone who hires this guy isn't fit to run a football club? Glad we agree.
Guess I picked the wrong week to quit sniffing glue!

They average 1k at home, you’ve got to go some to grow a fanbase from that.

Population of 40000 with no local rivals as they are so far from everywhere, so I guess it has potential to be a bigger club than it is now, even if that potential is ultimately limited.
These go to eleven.

But what’s the point as an investor, what’s the end game.

They’ve spent so many years in the lower reaches of non league they haven’t got the appeal factor, I watched them many times against Ilkeston in the late 90s early 2000s and they were dragging in 500 maximum

It’s a bit like asking Staveley or Matlock to draw 4000 fans in about 20 years time, it’s just not going to happen unfortunately. Shame though cos it’s a lovely set up in a near perfect location but whilst we have Premier League and Champions League rammed down our throats the young ones of today only look at City, United ,Liverpool and Chelsea in a town like Kings Lynn
