readingrebel Posted January 24, 2014 Share Posted January 24, 2014 Big 3 points up for grabs tomorrow. Rain forecast early evening for a few hours then dry overnight and tomorrow. With a bit of work done on the excellent draining Barton pitch, hopefully the game will be on. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Manor Park Rebel Posted January 24, 2014 Share Posted January 24, 2014 Wasn't there a serious problem with their pitch throughout last season? Never been there but I recall a bit of a heated exchange of views over their perceived failure to get the game on against us. I certainly intend to go tomorrow but don't fancy a wasted round trip of about 90 miles. Hopefully, if we can continue the form of the second half against Chalfont we will be in with a good chance of coming away with three points.

Graham C Posted January 24, 2014 Share Posted January 24, 2014 The Slough Observer was not exactly optimistic about the chances of the game being on......... Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Neil Baker Posted January 24, 2014 Share Posted January 24, 2014 I think it will all be down to what rain we get tonight, if we get what is expected it will be doubtful... the pitch was wet as of yesterday morning according to their manager... however fingers crossed: Squad tomorrow will be from : J Somerville, S Fraser, R Parsons, D Woozley, A Foulser, B Edwards, J Parsons, W Harris, D Wheeler, J McClurg, G Short, S Castello, E Smith, A Cornell, J Dyer S Harris. Rummy is unavailable tomorrow due to a prior engagement, and Guy has his last game suspended. Obviously with Jake back to fitness Max has gone back to Fulham, we thank Max and Fulham FC for all their help. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
HorshamRebel Posted January 24, 2014 Share Posted January 24, 2014 From Barton Twitter just before 11am today (Friday)... Pitch has dried very well overnight following this weeks works. No more heavy rain & game v Slough has a good chance of being on Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
readingrebel Posted January 24, 2014 Author Share Posted January 24, 2014 No doubt Barton have been actively working on their pitch to get the game on to maximise the income from the away support. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Nathan Posted January 25, 2014 Share Posted January 25, 2014 This'll be the 5th year running we've had to travel to Barton Rovers midweek. Will this one be rearranged for March as well? Is there a law preventing us playing there on a Saturday? ;-) Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
