Has the season been abandoned?

[ozbrit]

I just happened to see Friday's Anglia news podcast starring our very own Lee Harding. It seems that the season may have had a halt called to it, if I heard right. Also on the programme was the Kings Lynn chairman saying he can't afford to continue bankrolling the club at Conf national premier level with no attendance money to be had. So despite the Conf Nat carrying on, Lynn won't be.

Tough times indeed.
