Re: Away to Larsens in Midweek (Weds. 1st May)

Unfortunately there is no way I will be able to get out of work early on Wednesday if I was required

Re: Away to Larsens in Midweek (Weds. 1st May)

Ivan says he is playing and will pick up Lexton en route, but he doesn't finish work until 5.30.p.m.
Did somebody say he works at Oakwood station ? If so, I can't see him getting right across Enfield and over to Waltham Abbey in less than an hour from there in the rush hour. Let's hope the Ref can delay the kick-off.

I have texted Ben & Raf to see if they are playing, but I have not had a reply yet.

Also, I still have no idea if anybody is picking up Jack and/or Daley.

Re: Away to Larsens in Midweek (Weds. 1st May)

So how many is that?

Ive done that oakwood to abbey route before at that time. Nightmare traffic.

Absolutely. It will take an hour just to get from Enfield Chace Station to Nags Head Road, let alone from Oakwood !

Ben is playing, but John has just texted to say that Frazer is injured.
I still haven't heard from Raf.

I am not chasing up TJ and Krishan. 'Somebody else' can do that. I don't know why Trev has bothered putting them in the squad. TJ works in the City until about 8.00.p.m. every night, so there's no way he is going to play.

If everybody turns up who at the moment is supposed to be playing, we will have a bare eleven. If Raf and/or Krishan can play, then that's a bonus and it will cover us for anybody turning up after the kick-off.

Trev gave Jack a lift home on Sunday, but I don't know what arrangements he made with him regarding a lift for this match. Trev is working in Tottenham tomorrow and either going straight to Waltham Abbey from there or coming round to mine first. It would be stupid if Jack is just left sitting at home in Hadley Wood while we play with 10 men.

...and by the way, this is exactly why I have only entered one team in the 7-a-side League this Summer !

My friend is going to bring me

Re: Away to Larsens in Midweek (Weds. 1st May)

Raf says he is playing as he has arranged to go into work an hour later. (He works evenings/nights).
He didn't say how he was getting there though...and now I think he has gone to sleep for the day !?

Re: Away to Larsens in Midweek (Weds. 1st May)

Is there a postcode?

Re: Away to Larsens in Midweek (Weds. 1st May)

Jack...postcode is EN9 1JU, but I think that covers the whole of the Brooker Road Industrial Estate. Finding the entrance in that estate to the Town Mead Leisure Centre car park is not easy and you will probably need to refer to the directions I have given on the Forthcoming Fixtures page.
Phone me on 07949 128505 if you get lost when you get there.

Re: Away to Larsens in Midweek (Weds. 1st May)

It is now unlikely that Hagan will be playing tonight as he has had to go to work in Sidcup (Kent) today.

Hagan had arranged to give Terry a lift, so Terry is now going to get a train to Waltham Cross Station and try and walk to Town Mead or get a cab there.
If anybody is going past Waltham Cross Station and can pick Terry up, please let him know. I don't know what time the train he is planning on getting arrives.

I have tried contacting Martin Cruickshank to see if he can play...free of charge if he still has no money. I am getting no answer, so I would guess that he now has a job...which will probably mean that he won't be able to play because he will be working.

I have a nasty feeling that I am going to end up playing tonight.

More problems
I hear from a colleague that there is major traffic issues on sewardstone
All the way to waltham abbey with filter traffic lights taking 30 to 45 mins to get through at peak times.
Its gonna be a nightmare no way we get there for 6 30. Ref wont hang around.
If you finish at 5 30 or after like me it will be mission to get there in time

Have just checked online and that is correct. Major snarl-up down Sewardstone Road.

We will just have to hope our players know another way to get there. Could just be a case of following signs to Waltham Abbey from wherever they are and looking for the brown signs saying Town Mead Leisure Centre.
