Sunday 5 December

We have been advised that Oadby and Wigston Borough Council have cancelled all games on their pitches, so the following are postponed


Sunday Premier Cup - Advance Couriers v Glenfield Town, Sunday

Sunday Trophy - Niffy Rangers Reserves v FC Union

Sunday Trophy - Sporting Wigston v New Road Inn

Division 4 - Sparta Parva v The Good Old Days

Division 5 - The Wheel v Sparta Parva Reserves

The first of many, if not all??

i would say all

they did this before and all the snow disappeared,

fingers crossed

It's gotta come down to how much we want to play, under the snow the ground isn't frozen, a team with brushes an hour or so before kick off could get a lot of these pitches playable but will they do it?!

doubt it

It's a joke, things will not get any better only worse over the next few days, common sense should prevail and in my opinion all games postponed for this weekend!

Iv gotta disagree, with the ground undrerneath not frozen and rain forecasted for saturday I think there is a realistic possibility of some games at least getting played. When you think thyere are some teams in the league like us who have only played 6 games in the league we need to put every effort in to getting as many games played as we can else we'll be playing in july!!

pitches will get so bad if they are played on happened to us at western park last year had a massive hole in the middle of our pitch and was moved to braunstone park

negative temps and rain don't mix! I hope I'm wrong but really can't see it, I would love to play this Sunday but it's not going to happen! As for brushing the pitches lol snow keeps the pitches warmer even in low temps but take a trip to football league grounds and look at the teams they have clearing snow, not 15 lads with wilko brushes! With many league one/two and even championship teams struggling to get games on I think we are dreaming! I really hope I'm wrong but will be suprised even if 1 game goes ahead this weekend .

Same question I was going to ask (in relation to the same game looking at your avatar!

The pitches wont recover from -4 and -5 temperatures tonight and tomorrow night respectively

think knighton park is covered by leicester council

Had an email back from Mark and the above should cover Knighton Park too,... so Polska v Throops is also off now,..

It probably comes under Harborough District Council, but I am not sure who makes the decision there. James, or a forum member from one of the clubs who play there should know.

At this momemt, I have no indication of how white the pitches are over there, but we have two Alliance games scheduled.

history says that market harborough get snow worse than we do and temperatures always lower

snow is thawing today in harborough at 9.15 not sure can thaw enough thougfh maybe if we all do a rain dance !!

Little Bowden P Vs P Wigston Rangers

Decision made this morning that the pitch will not thaw in time. Next game for Bowden is (Weather permitting) 12/12/10 Vs North Kilworth Sunday (Home)

SUNDAY COUNTY COMPETITION FIXTURES

Following a decent night in terms of the weather, the County FA has decided that matches that haven't already been called off by local authorities or owners will be subject to pitch inspections by the appointed (or local) referee on the day of the match.

For areas of the County still under significant snow at present a local referee MAY be called in today to get the pitch inspected and a decision reached.

If fixtures do go ahead, please inform your league of your result in your usual manner.

This decision has been made in order to alleviate any backlog in fixtures and assist leagues where possible over the coming weeks.
