King's Lynn town hall tribute planned to promotion winning Linnets

Lynn's Town Hall will be lit up in blue and gold this weekend to celebrate King's Lynn Town's historic promotion to the National League.

The tribute projection will take place on Saturday evening and was announced by West Norfolk Council this afternoon.

The news came a week on from confirmation that the Linnets had been declared National League North champions after final league positions were determined on a points per game calculation.

In a video message released alongside the announcement, borough mayor Geoff Hipperson said he was "delighted" to congratulate the club on behalf of the whole borough for its achievement of securing successive promotions.

He said: "This is a tremendous achievement and you must be so pleased that the decision gave you the deserved result.

"The National League will be new territory for King's Lynn Football Club.

"I will follow your progress with interest, hope to see a few games and wish you all the best for next season."
