I agree that ideally all fixtures should finish on the same day and when the original list was issued back in July, that was indeed the intention, with all Premier games finishing on Easter Monday 25 April. Unfortunately, we had in excess of 200 postponements, and I felt that it was necessary to ease the pressure a little by using the "spare" date of 30 April, to avoid too many Tuesday/Thursday situations and we have managed to get 16 of the 21 in action on that date. I do intend to review this with the clubs in due course though to see if it is a"big" issue and if so, we will rigidly stick to the notion of everyone finishing on the same date in future seasons. Only one club has ever contacted me on this situation though and they changed their viewpoint on it between this season and last.

 

It is different in Division One, once again because of the floodlight situation. Postponed matches at clubs without lights have to be fitted in at the end of the season, unless I can find an earlier Saturday. For that reason I try to leave a little "slack" in the last month, so that games can be fitted in as and when, and that does lead to something of a lottery in the final weeks fixture wise. I don't think we will be able to do much about that situation until all clubs in Div 1 have lights.

 

Clubs can help themselves to an extent of course by restricting the number of supplementary cups that they enter.

 

As far as presenting any trophy is concerned, we do try to present on the day that it is won but that is not always possible. If that can't be done, we alwasy ask the club concerned when they would like to receive it.

Big Ant - if you read Whitelaws comments above, taken from a similar thread last week, you'll understand why it wasn't possible to all finish together

We did Ant when we were there in August...knocked the boXXocks out of me...lol, think we played 11 games including cup and played the most league games aswell that month.

 

Still you've done what you needed to do win them two games, SP 4 points think everybody will go win against Chobham and draw at home against HW.......................Goal difference will be painful to miss out on.......regardless of what happens youll smash them in the cup
