They have lost their appeal and have been kicked out of the conference North

No real surprise, rules is rules. The football authoritys aren''t known for their flexibility.....unless of course your West Ham.

Or any of the premiership, the FA are good at taking a hard stance on small teams, unfortuneately a bit gutless when it comes to the real challanges such as West Ham as you say.

LOL! Or Man Utd, rules written as and when required by them to suit!

Or Ferrari in F1!

Kings Lynn will recover from this and, hopefully, come back stronger. You get the sense they were getting a little complacent with their rise up the divisions and things were being "missed" in the rush.

It''s the Northern (Unibond) Premier Division for the Linnets. Some nice away days there....

Promoted from the Southern Premier, demoted to the Northern Premier.  The organisation of football in this country is a shambles.

[/quote]Well King''s Lynn is actually closer to London than Lowestoft but Lowestoft managed to get placed in the Ryman.  Lynn tried to get transferred over to the Ryman a few seasons back but were turned down on the basis that they were ''too far away'' from the other teams in that league.  Another example is Gloucester being placed in the BSN whereas it''s northern neighbours Worcester stay in the BSS.It''s all a massive lottery to be honest. where certain clubs seem to get the rub of the green (Histon, Hampton & Richmond), whereas many others (Lynn, Cambridge City, etc) get unfairly penalised.  The whole tiering system needs to be sorted out asap because it is becoming more farcical by the season...
