Keith Webb is hoping for good news in the transfer market

League officials have confirmed the Conference line-ups for next season, with King's Lynn in Conference North.

The Linnets won promotion by winning the Southern League, but will now join local rivals Boston United.

Lynn manager Keith Webb said: "It's a bit of a blow because we were hoping to play in the south, but that's the decision and we have to get on with it.

"It's good that we'll be playing Boston, but that'll be one for the fans, we have to treat it as one game."

We want to attract good players, we're a forward thinking club. Keith Webb

"We've got about five or six from the Lincoln area, a couple from Sheffield way, so they're more than happy," he said.

"The majority are from the midlands anyway so it makes little difference to them."

Webb also admitted his disappointment at missing out on the signature of Burton Albion striker Daryl Clare, who has joined Rushden and Diamonds.

"We want to attract good players, we're a forward thinking club, getting a player of Daryl's credentials would have been good kudos for the club," he added.

"In the end he's gone for Rushden, they're obviously offering a king's ransom, so good luck to him.

"We'll have to move on, look elsewhere and hope anything of the same quality comes along."
