Re: Squad for Sunday 16th Feb. (Away to The Beehive)

John says he will not be moving to Derby for another couple of weeks and will be at training this Wednesday. He is also available for the next two Sundays (if we play).

I also had an e-mail from Tem Adil who says he wants to rejoin us. He says he has stopped eating kebabs and taken up running.
Obviously he will be a decent player if he has, so I have asked him to come training on Wednesday night...although he is an Arsenal supporter, so he may well be watching the Man U match.

Re: Squad for Sunday 16th Feb. (Away to The Beehive)

Jack has told me that he will not be going training tonight...presumably watching Arsenal ?, while Riaz is now injured again. Their mates won't be there either to make up the numbers.
Also, Tem is going to Arsenal and Mal is working in Southampton today and may not get back in time if the weather disrupts the trains.

As nobody uses Teamer apart from myself, Barney & Adam Krstic, I haven't got a clue who is thinking of going training tonight apart from myself, Barney and John. Nobody else has texted me.
If I don't hear from anybody else by 7.00.p.m., then I think we will have to call it off on the assumption that there will be no more than about 8 of us there including me...and I will NOT be training.

Re: Squad for Sunday 16th Feb. (Away to The Beehive)

Training is now OFF tonight at we would not have had any more than six players there (i.e. Barney, Garry, Cascoe, John, Krishan, Ryan) plus myself.

Re: Squad for Sunday 16th Feb. (Away to The Beehive)

Same as last week, just in case the game is on this Sunday, the squad of 16 is as follows:
Mal Saphiris (GK)
Lexton Harrison
Alan Barnard
Terry Moore
George Stahlmann
Tom Simmons
Danny Hagan
Garry Cover
Daniel Cascoe
Riaz Daniels
Krishan Singh
Ryan Foreman
Leon McKenzie-McKay
Jack Bangs
Daniel Daley
John Scouller


The Beehive Secretary has confirmed that the Country Club groundsman will make a decision on the state of the pitch tomorrow (Friday) daytime.
I have no idea what condition the pitch is in at the moment, but it is supposed to rain heavily all day tomorrow and if that happens, the match will almost certainly get called off.
Please do not make plans to do something else just yet in case that weather forecast is wrong.

Re: Squad for Sunday 16th Feb. (Away to The Beehive)

I notice here that the fixture has been wiped off the list already and it just says 'Postponed' here, but Pitch One over there is still on (for a match in the Premier Division).

So...I would guess either Pitch Two (which we are supposed to be on) is completely under water or The Beehive are non-fulfilling the fixture.
Hopefully I will have some confirmation by this evening.

Re: Squad for Sunday 16th Feb. (Away to The Beehive)

The League Fixture Secretary has just confirmed that Pitch Two at the Country Club in Cheshunt was deemed unplayable by the groundsman yesterday (Thursday), so our game against The Beehive this Sunday is definitely OFF.

It is now likely to be played as a Double-Header on a Sunday in April as we have not played them at Home yet either.
