Non-League Paper closes

The Non-League Paper is closing. Next Sunday will be the last editon.

The paper was recently taken over by its third owners in four years. Non-League Media started the paper but then sold it to Greenway Media.

It went bust last June owing £750,000 and was then bought by BHT Media. Several West Midlands press reporters and cameramen were thought to be owed money by the paper.

London-based Greenways Media Ltd published both the 'Non League Paper' and the 'League Paper' and has a total turnover of £2.2 million. The appointment of the joint administrators was made following the discovery of financial irregularities and after the board of directors had taken legal advice. The company is continuing to trade whilst the joint administrators seek a buyer for the business and assets. was a comment from the administrators, Vantis, at the time.

It is not known if BHT Media is in trouble.

Conference coverage will be incorporated into a new 120 page paper called the Football Paper. It is assumed that the League Paper will also close.
