Ian Culverhouse has conceded that King's Lynn Town need financial help - and quickly - if they are to see out their first-ever season in the National League.

The Linnets' boss has admitted that owner Stephen Cleeve can't continue to keep funding the club while there are no fans coming through the gates.

The National League season still hangs in the balance with Cleeve and fellow club owners shelling out tens of thousands of pounds to keep their teams going on the pitch.

After the unlucky 1-0 home defeat to Notts County at The Walks on Tuesday night, which could end up being Lynn's last home game of a farcical campaign, Culverhouse said: "Will we be here again? I don’t know.

"It is hard to say, but what I will say is we can’t carry on doing what we are doing without help. It is too much for Steve (Cleeve), it really is.

"He is funding it as much as he can and hopefully I am not out of order by saying it, but it is a big ask for him, a really big ask.

“He has no income coming through the gate and he has no personal income coming in. It is hard at the moment, it is hard times, but we are not the only ones - there are a few of us like it.”
