Saturday 9th March fixtures etc

[Smudge]

If the Guernsey Vase game is not played tomorrow,presume it will be arranged for next Saturday 16th.Will this mean that they will have to play 2 games in 2 days,as South Park are due to visit on the 17th.

Don't think its standing water, was the bit that has been mud for the last couple of months. Had half of Cobo beach on it last match.

Tris,how are you measuring this deluge?

Basically, a guy with his own weather station somewhere in Farnham! Not me! ;-)

[Smudge]

How's the pitch with all the rain forecast?? Will you be holding a pitch inspection at all??

 

The pitch was unplayable for a Whyteleafe Youth Fixture last night,and has not stopped raining since,so very doubtful

For those interested...Ascot Utd passed a 4pm pitch inspection...they have travelled so all looks good..there is a bit of surface water on some of the pitch but will go tomorrow as forecast is dry tomorrow. Extra covers have also been put down, and work will start at 8.30 tomorrow morning removing them. Just hope the forecast is correct.
