With the talk of 30% being the magical figure will 1650 be about right for our gate next season ?
Its the minimum capacity of the league, not the individual clubs, that are being used so far. It appears to be 4000 for the National League. So 30% will be 1200. So get your £35 ready.  https://www.bbc.co.uk/sport/football/53852482

Hmm, perhaps the people who question any "perks" that volunteers may or may not get, should volunteer themselves. Problem solved, everybody happy.

Would it be worth seeing if you can fit in another season ticket raffle before the season kicks off, I would be willing to gamble another tenner? 
How about Contacting Mark Hearle to see if the Club would release the first of the new shirts off the production line, with the new sponsor's name. Then get all the first team squad to sign it and The Trust run a raffle at a Fiver a ticket.
I’ll even buy the shirt.
Maybe the Chairman could present the shirt to the winner. Good photo opportunity for the Chairman/Club plus also help toward a reconciliation between SC and The Trust.
Thoughts?
Well done Mallard. I'm sure i read somewhere they only cost £1 to manufacture, so shouldn't be too expensive for you.

Hmm, looks like the "divide & conquer" tactics, re the support base, used by past & present owners is now bearing fruit.

Think if you click on the photo KES you can see that Social distancing has been pushed aside, while the photo is taken. Difficult to have a group photo while maintaining Social distancing.
The Lord Napier.... Where the Linnets & their fans drink.,......would make a grab ad in next years Match day Programme
Just add the photo to the Nap's ad on the Trust website. Perfect.

Think we can count ourselves lucky that Stephen Cleeve has said he is not prepared to continue to bankroll the club and wants to see it become self sufficient. I guess that’s why we are getting so many appeals to the fans for funds.

Hasn’t there been a couple of takeovers there in recent months from Overseas Investors ?
Only 4 weeks ago, an Asian shareholder increased his shareholding in the Club to 75%, effectively taking over control of the Club.
Club has apparently posted a £9,000,000 loss.
Previous owners sold to current owners citing one of the reasons as being "it was dissatisfied with the loss-making finances of the Championship................".
The current owners have now said something similar, "unsatisfactory financial performance of the club, due to the punishing economics of the Championship..........."
What they mean is, spent money they never had, trying to keep up with the big boys.

If Mr Cleeve wants to copy supporter owned clubs, why not copy one, which last season set a weekly team budget of under £3k. Recruited a squad of hungry young players, who reached 2nd place in their league and turned the clubs finances round. Resulting in a monthly surplus being made, until covid reared its head. Who's supporters were happy to have a team to watch, with anything else a bonus. Can't see this happening at Lynn can you? Mentioning Darlington, Gateshead etc is just an attempt to make the appeal for cash, more acceptable to more people. The figures speak for themselves. Supporters who own, or have a say in the running of their club, are more generous when funds are needed. Take FCUM. £15k Crowdfunder for pitch improvements, target reached in 2 days, with £32k raised in a month when it ended. I think the target has been set to high, given that the other appeals since lockdown started, appear to have only reached £5k. There's no harm in asking, but most Linnets have short arms & long pockets.

EFL league 2 vote to end season and use unweighted PPG....if that is followed through to National League then Lynn top of North.Has to be consistent treatment in N ,S and NL, so can see Barrow, Wealdstone and Lynn going up
"consistent treatment" would surely be all leagues voided, like the rest of non league football.

What are everyone’s views on something I saw on Facebook a day or two ago.
So I was going to have a 40th birthday party at King's Lynn Town Football Club but it was obviously cancelled due to government advice. I asked for a refund and was refused, but offered to rebook in 12 months. I declined as I’m not working at the moment and the money is more important than a party. After Stephen Cleeve the owner acknowledged there was no terms and conditions they still refused a refund. After many emails back and forth and even pointing out that accoarding to the CMA I’m entitled to a full refund, I’m now being ignored, this maybe because they’re not there but there was no out of office automated email.
I’m not one to name a shame but it is unprofessional and a blatant flouting of consumer rights.
I have attached a link for the advice from the CMA on the gov.uk website for those of you affected in a similar way.
I also now feel like I have no alternative to report them to the CMA
What are your views? "Investors may not get back the capital they invested"
