GAME OFF

[Nette]

Today's game at Folkestone has been postponed due to water logged pitch !!!

[Uncle Urchin]

thats a big surprise then.....like as if they wanted to play us on a saturday when they could get us down there on a tuesday evening....

 

seem to recall ricay had these problems with folkestone last season or the year before...?

[I am Spartacus]

Am supprised as pitch normally drains well. Could be that yesterdays rain is still filtering down from Capel-le-Fearn.

 

Could still catch the coach and divert to HDP instead

[Bitch]

Come to Angels v Chelmsford. Watch us stuff up thier hopes of winning the league today!

[AncientBlue]

It's a beautiful day down here in Margate, come a visit us as Joseba suggested.

[Miss.A.F.C.Hornchurch]

Ohhhhhh no!

its off!

[Ian_Sanderson]

been out today in my shorts and sun glasses, suprised its off

[Dagger03]

From a sunny Romford it is something of a surprise to find that the match should be called off. I have quickly checked the local leagues and here are the nearest matches of the day in each league -

 

Conf - Grays v Crawley (Gravesend are at York)

Conf South - nothing local (Thurrock are away at Dorchester)

ILP - Billericay v Hendon

EOL - Frenford Senior v Kelvedon Hatch (2.30 start)(top of the table match)

ESL Mauritius Sports v London APSA

ILN Dartford v Brentwood (Canvey are at Arlesey)(Redbridge v Potters Bar)

FL - Dagenham & Redbridge v Chesterfield

In the ECL the nearest are at Tiptree or Saffron Walden.

 

Where will I go? No idea - quite fancy Frenford v Kelvedon - does anyone know where Mauritius play? Is is still at Aveley?

 

Sorry Bitch but can't see much point in going to Tonbridge as we are there in a couple of weeks.

 

 

[MCP]

Mauritius do play at aveley

 

but wouldn't the nearest game to hornchurch in the esl be romford vs barkingside or have hornchurch moved without telling anyone?

[Eastside Urchin]

also.i have a friend in cheriton(just outside folkestone),i was meeting him today,he is going to the ground to let me know if the pitch really is that bad,i will post my findings when he rings me in about 15 minutes!

[Dagger03]

>>>Mauritius do play at aveley

 

Thanks - the very thought of Mauritius v LAPSA is just too much to think about

 

>>>but wouldn't the nearest game to hornchurch in the esl be romford vs barkingside

 

I was only referring to the match of the day in each league

 

 

>>>>or have hornchurch moved without telling anyone?

 

I understand that an announcement will be made shortly within the next few days.

[Miss.A.F.C.Hornchurch]

there is also Tilbury v's Wivenhoe

relegation battle!

[Wivenhoe Urchin]

Tilbury v Wivenhoe Town is a big game for both teams in the ryman north, i'm considering this one today.

Ready and waiting for you Sir Gary

[Miss.A.F.C.Hornchurch]

i will wait to go to Tonbridge in a couple of weeks!

 

I wouldve gone to Margate but the trains are playing up for the journey home and i dont want to get lost in the middle of Kent.

 

so maybe next time

[Eastside Urchin]

my mate has just rang and says although the pitch is heavy and they have had rain there is no reason why it was called off!

From the Folkestone website:

 

Folkestone Invicta v AFC Hornchurch - Game OFF

 

Today's match with AFC Hornchurch has been called off. Following an early inspection, the referee stated that he felt the amount of surface water was a danger to the players, so has insisted on a postponement. Details of the re-arranged date will appear in due course.
