The club is closely monitoring the weather situation, ahead of tomorrow night’s re-scheduled FA Trophy fixture against Leamington FC. The pitch at Latimer Park is currently playable, but we are keeping a close eye on it and whilst we are hopeful that there won’t be any issues, we are looking at options to get the fixture played should the weather turn against us. With that in mind, both teams have agreed in conjunction with the FA, that we will reverse the fixture to The Phillips 66 Community Stadium if needed.
For the avoidance of any doubt, the fixture is presently scheduled for Latimer Park but this approach gives us the opportunity to switch the tie, if needed. The main goal is to get the game played and this approach provides the greatest opportunity to achieve that, within the scheduling rules of the competition.
A final decision will be made tomorrow morning and an update will be provided at the earliest opportunity.
