Richard Bobbett 16th Jan 2008 5:00 PM	We have three games this weekend all scheduled for 2.15 k/o, good luck to all three teams. 1st home v Slough 2nd away at Aylesbury Prison (need to meet there at 1.15 due to security / entrance proceedures) 3rd away at Wycombe Obvioulsy the pitches are quite waterlogged at present, but currently all games are ON, so players don't assume anything else!(If any games are called off we have the option to train instead.) Pitch inspections are scheduled for Chiltern and Aylesbury Prison for friday pm.

Sitzy 18th Jan 2008 4:08 PM	2's Game at the prision is cancelled.
Richard Bobbett 18th Jan 2008 4:55 PM	UPDATE 1st team, inspection this afternooon, depsite the 1st team pitch being waterlogged, the second team pitch is just playable, however rain expected overnight, so another inspection is planned for 10am Saturday 2nd team at Aylesbury Prison is postponed due to waterlogged pitch. 3rd team game is definitely ON Colts, and juniors on sunday, decision expected after pitch inspection on saturday am. All 1st and 2nd team players are expected at Chiltern on Saturday, if game is called off, the coaching team have a training session planned, and normal food etc is being laid on for the players after training on Saturday.
Richard Bobbett 19th Jan 2008 11:31 AM	UPDATE 1s game, Slough have refused to accept a decision regarding the pitch conditions this morning, so we will now wait until the match referee inspects at approx 1pm. 2s OFF 3s ON at wycombe Colts / u16s on Sunday, both 1st and 2nd team pitch have about 25% of surface water, with the remainder of pitch very waterlogged / heavy, rain is forecasted all day, so it is unlikely the pitches will be OK on Sunday.
