Re: Squad for Sunday 26th Jan. (Away to Highgate Redwing)
Just received from Enfield Council (as sent to all clubs)...
'Please be advised that your sports pitch booking in Parks and Open Spaces has been cancelled due to weather conditions for Saturday 25th and Sunday 26th January 2014.
As you know we have experienced very heavy rainfall over the past 3-4 weeks which has prevented our parks staff from marking out the pitches and also tractor access for general maintenance. Parks Operations are making every effort to get pitches fit for play, we are planning to verti-drain the pitches as soon as ground conditions allow, this operation may help the water to drain but this is subject to periods of dry weather in the next week or so.
Re: Squad for Sunday 26th Jan. (Away to Highgate Redwing)
Highgate Redwing have informed me that they have cleared excess water off the pitch, forked it, and marked the lines out, so at the moment (as of Friday evening), the game is ON.
The weather forecast is for more rain tonight and also on Saturday night though, while the forecast is still horrendous for Sunday daytime, so the game still could get called off at any time, including by the Referee when we get there.
Please do NOT take a risk and arrange to do something else just yet.
