Over 100 years of history (aka Who'd be a football supporter?)

Official UniBond League Statement regarding Kings Lynn FC

UniBond League officials, who had hoped that Kings Lynn FC would be reprieved in the High Court on Wednesday, were bitterly disappointed when written confirmation was received from the Official Receiver’s offices in Norwich on Thursday morning, 10th December 2009 that the Liquidator appointed to wind up Kings Lynn FC had confirmed the club could not fulfil its fixtures. Accordingly under League Rule 13.9 Kings Lynn FC ceases to be a member of the Company.

The UniBond League is equally disappointed for the large body of supporters who followed a club with over a century of history behind them.

Kings Lynn were also removed by the Football Association from the FA Trophy and the scheduled tie on Saturday, 12th December against Vauxhall Motors awarded to the Conference North side.

A decision regarding the playing record of Kings Lynn will be announced by the League shortly and fixtures will be rescheduled.
