King's Lynn in the FA Cup before 1940 | 
King's Lynn's first appearance in the FA Cup (then the English
Cup) was in the 1900-01 season when they progressed to the third qualifying
round. With the exception of 1908-09 season, the 2010-11 season and the two wars Lynn have competed
every year and, in terms of the percentage of games won compared to games
played, Lynn can claim to be one of the most successful sides taking part in the
competition!
