Compo's Hat Tony Le Mesmer Maiders cup tie v Barrow now provisionally Tues 12th Jan
Trying again on the 19th.
2nd midweek running complete wipeout locally - obviously no NL games over last w/e either.
Most people think it may thaw a bit for next w/e 16th - trouble is that only brings more flooding/waterlogged pitches - some clubs who couldn't play over the holiday period, haven't kicked a ball in anger since mid Dec or earlier and some much lower level clubs haven't played a league match since early in November!
A few clubs in Reading Town's league are as many as eight league matches adrift.
Badshot Lea, in the CCL Premier, who groundshare at Farnborough, already have 6 games in hand of leaders Camberley and are up to 10 games behind others - last played a league game on 28th November.
They'll have to come up with something very creative to catch up - particularly difficult since they have to play 2nd fiddle to 'boro @ Cherrywood Rd - who have their own backlog to deal with.
They're both probably still involved in a welter of League and County Cup competitions too!
Anywho -
should this w/e program be unaffected, the following 'local' clubs are in action:-
FA Vase 4th RoundChertsey Town v Plymouth Parkway
New Mills v
Witney Utd - the BlanketBoys have to travel to a club very close to the Peak District - SE of StockportCONF-SouthBasingstoke Town v Newport County

... not sure quite where I'm bound for - will try and get to a Vase game if poss. but to keep to a 'new' ground involving clubs in my 'targetted' leagues, would involve either:
Royston (between Bedford & Cambridge) v Tipton or
Long Buckby (nr Northampton) v Epsom & Ewell.
... would need the M25 to co-operate too.
