After Saturday’s disappointment which was caused from an issue with our floodlights, personally I’d like to once again apologise to Potters Bar Town’s, players, officials and spectators. To the match officials and to everyone in attendance on Saturday.

I felt we did everything we could, we attempted to get the lights on to get the match completed. After 3 or 4 attempts it seems a fault had developed with one of the stanchions at the club, which was working completely fine for Tuesday evenings match! A really frustrating day for all.

We have had the opportunity to reflect and I appreciate Potters Bar Town for being understanding throughout.

The two clubs have agreed to replay the fixture on Tuesday 18th January at 7:45pm.
As a gesture of goodwill, we have agreed to make this match free entry for all as our apology! However, we will have a collection on the gate to cover the match officials costs and any additional profit from this will go towards a chosen charity by the clubs committee.

We are currently in contact with a contractor to get the fault repaired as soon as possible.

On Thursday we were drawn at home to East Thurrock United in the Essex Senior Cup 3rd Round. A date for this match has been confirmed for Tuesday 7th December at 7:45pm, North Road. Prices are to be finalised shortly.

I now hope for a quieter week at the club as we prepare for Saturday’s trip to Corinthian-Casuals.

Up The R’s
