http://www.alliancefootballleague.co.uk/Pages/Fixtures/Fixtures%20Weeks/Fixtures_ThisWeek.html

The referee appointments will be added when available

Yes! Home game! Thanks James

Anyone got a free week?

do we know yet if the season is likely to be extended by Councils?

Referee Appointments now added

I hope Kilworth have a yellow ball for Sunday, seems everytime this game is scheduled it snows, thinking maybe we should just flip a coin to see who goes through otherwise it'll still be snowing in May!

should be ok this week

You speak to soon and have cursed the fixtures

Postponed D6 - Global Athletic v Hat & Beaver folllowing a referee's inspection by our very own Referees Secretary

It cannot be reversed due to a pitch share - not that the pitch is fit as we are already trying to relocate the pitch share, D7 - Friar Lane v CFA

Fixture reversed but being played at Evington Park.

To clarify

Friar Lane v CFA is postponed

Hat & Beaver v Global Athletic is reinstated - it is a reversed fixture but being played at Evington Park

Kilworth v MDH also reversed

Postponement - Premiership - Frolesworth United v Star & Garter - pitch unplayable

Frolesworth V Star & Garter - Postponed.

They inform us at half past 7 their pitch is unplayable, to which we reply we can play it at our ground. Strange enough in the 15 minutes that elapsed between the two conversations, all of their players have made alternative arrangements on a Sunday morning.

Yet another postponement to add to an already heavy backlog of fixtures.

It is both frustrating and annoying that teams, competing in a football league, seem to want not to play football. Surely league rules must be amended to force teams to reverse the fixture and play, especially with how many postponements there has been this season already.

If any team out there wants to break the norm and play a game of football we have a pitch and team readily available.


FARCE.

The Senior League fixture on their ground was abandoned at half time this afternoon by the match referee who deemed the pitch to be umplayable. I would think the other arrangements were made well before the League or Star & Garter were made aware of the problem.

They obviously did not consider the possibility of trying to reverse the fixture

Glenfield Town's pitch is unplayable so we're all turning up tomorrow to Victoria Park and praying we can get a game on somewhere! This is crazy!

Please ensure the appointed referee is included in your plans

You should also liaise with James in the morning as he may have some idea of the pitches available on Victoria Park

Yes, I believe the referee has been contacted by Glenfield and there is no problem with this.

Our secretary has also spoken thoroughly with James too. It's got to the stage now where we have no choice but to find anywhere and play!

Firstly, some of us have work on a Saturday and I wasn't informed until I got back from Rotherham at 7.30pm.

Secondly, that's not true whatsoever, Luca said the following -

'Okay, what's the chances as I need to tell the lads. Shall we just leave it?'

To which I replied, 'Might be best mate, could be too short notice.'

Which actually means that we both agreed not to play the fixture at your ground.

Thirdly, Lutterworth Town's game was abandoned at half-time due to a waterlogged pitch so they have postponed our game which means it wasn't our decision.

And finally, why would we want to play a home game at your ground?

Looks like its already been sorted then, dont worry before you throw another tantrum, i'm sure mummy will find you another activity to play, i'm sure lego land's open on Sundays, so get your nappy changed, take a clean dummy and pin it to your tee shirt, and off you go....don't forget to pack your rusks.

The Star & Garter boys need pulling back down to earth.
