Fixtures

Weymouth away in September is pretty good for those who want to do a weekend.

Except that it is scheduled on a Tuesday.

oops!

 

OK for those old codgers who are retired or for those who want a couple days away by the seaside in midweek.

Personally I really hate the thought of going back to SYCOB to play some home games.

 

 

Eddie, I doubt that SYCOB are too impressed about you going back either!!

[Bernie Gogan]

Erm.....Beaconsfield Town, brand new monicker don't forget!

Have they really made the change though? Their website, the league website and their social media accounts suggest they have not.

[staines_rebel_Jr]

@DavidVick5 No name change for next season but probably for season after. Lot of FA hoops to dance through.

Really can't see swapping SYCOB for town is going to make any difference at all in terms of increased attendances or sponsorship/advertising.

Following a meeting today with the Council I can report that all is progressing to plan with handover of the ground from the builder to the Council, still anticipated for mid-August.

 

With the release of the fixtures today, it is all becoming a reality.

There are no plans to alter any fixtures and we will advise the date of the first game in the new facility in due course. I appreciate that you are all keen to get in, as are we, however, we have to ensure that everything is in place and we are ready for the momentous occasion. There are many things that still need to be completed so we must ask for your continued patience.

 

 

That is the latest update on the club website.

 

Is it fair to assume then that we will play at least one "home" game at SYCOB

[Don Juan DeMarcus]

Is there any possibility we may be trying to switch home games to away until the ground is up? Basically, any chance the opening fixture will be st Neots away?

[GlenSTFC]

No you'll just have to miss them like when I'm away possibly missing the first match at AP plus another 2 after!!!

[A Rebel and a Saint]

Kay has already said on the website that we won't be looking to switch any matches.

[David Carpenter]

I am sponsoring the Home game v St Neots on Saturday August 6 (being played at Beaconsfield).

[GlenSTFC]

Ah that's it then no chance of it being moved now!

[rebelade]

Seems Redditch are behind with their ground renovation, which I believe has 3G pitch, and will play the first 2 home games at alternative venues, so maybe the league don't allow the swapping of games

[Don Juan DeMarcus]

Thanks for the replies and "Bugger"

[David Carpenter]

Just to clarify my input into this - as ARRAS  noted yesterday Kay Lathey had posted on the website (Thursday 21 July) that there would be no switching of games and I posted further confirmation of this by way of noting my sponsorship of the St. Neots game at Beaconsfield on 6 August . I was approached Tuesday this week regarding this sponsorship - I presume, understandably, that most people willing to sponsor games will do so when the new stadium is operational..

Ade You also need the OK from the other team, If it don't suit them ie the game could be on non-league day ect
