I think they were forced to forfeit the game. Not sure if this has been added this year to the competition rules. You can be sure if it has the big boys will get round it.

Healthy competition for Crook.

Think you’ll find it will be the other way round.

Money was sent down
The national league got given 2 million
56k went to the conference clubs each
North and south clubs got 13k each

13,000....won't pay the wages for 2 weeks that!

It a joke really, it shows how out of touch the Premiere League is with Non league football.
They obviously think that NL Clubs play on the village park, and are supported by one man and his trusty whippet

Which is why I refuse to subscribe to sky sports. The distribution of money in times of trouble should start at the poorest not the richest.

We put a really strong side out tonight and still lost, absolutely piss poor.
We have huge problems with players not giving a toss.
Some players think they are better than they are or listening to the hype of their agent's.
Absolute joke that's what they are.

Well, I mean we're third in the league so no, I don't think our players are a "joke".....

I am sorry but going on last night's game only they were.
As Craig said, "you are only as good as your last game".

Sorry but you’re not as good as you’re last game. If you play sh@@e in your last two games of the season and still win the lge that argument does not hold up, it’s a sound bite used by managers of all standards down the years. Also if it was true the transfer market would be flooded on a Sunday morning with useless players. We are a team playing in what was the old Northern prem lge and have players who are playing at that level for a reason. At the minute we are playing through a blip pretty much like Kings Lynn and Chester, keep the faith and remember it’s still better than watching the over paid over hyped VAR infested premiership. #grassroots.

Cash flow problems for KL.
Paying £900 a week for Southwell and...... £1900 a week for Marriott. Both unsustainable in this league.

Sorry, but this is nonsense.
Marriott is indeed the biggest earner at Kings Lynn, but he's on £800 per week, which is still plenty at this level. Southwell was not offered anymore from Kings Lynn than he was offered elsewhere, but choose Kings Lynn. A professional such as Southwell would take into account the Management set up as well as what's on offer financially and I have to say as far as that goes, Kings Lynn seem to have the lead due to Culverhouse.
Anyway Southwell and what he's earning is not that important  in the grand scheme of things, apart from meaning that Kings Lynn now have a full squad to choose from, which is sonething they have not had for most of the season.The difference between Kings Lynn and otber Clubs is Culverhouse and his ability to get the right player at the right time. This can be seen in recent weeks when utilising his contacts with Norwich, and when he managed to get Power on loan. This lad could fit straight into most Championship sides (yes, he is that good). Norwich keen to keep him on their books and he is earmarked to be a regular Norwich first team player next season.
I don't think people should worry about Kings Lynn and what they spend, especially in future seasons,  as a closer tie up with Norwich is on the cards so more players such as Power will be Lynn bound, and financially that makes a lot of sense for both parties.
Playing Championship players at this level though.......not sure if I think thats fair or not!
Could all be academic though as latest rumour is that its a straight race between Warnock and Culverhouse if Lambert gets the chop.

Good post Blue, I thought wages at Lynn had been exaggerated plus the fact it’s got little to do with me as Boston fan anyway. Do you think the Tractor boys will come looking for IC? And more to the point would he go to the enemy 😀

Interesting what Craig said about Whittle when interviewed by Radio Lincs, well maybe what he didn’t say.
