It's looking dodgy! Hope the weather is better out in the sticks than it is in the big smoke!! Green Army!"You don't stop playing football because you get old, you get old because you stop playing football"Mangotsfield and Castle Green URC

Hope the weather is better out in the sticks than it is in the big smoke!! It lashed down in Saltford last night, less than 10 miles as the crow files from Welton. If it the game out in the sticks is on, I can predicte it will be muddy. Forecast for Thursday night/Friday morning looks horrid. Hopefully will see you Saturday.

Not looking good, Hillfields are already saying their pitch is a doubt and I can't see our groundsman letting us play at our place this weekend - it was looking very tired and heavy after we played on it on Saturday. Still, we've had a good run so far this season. Here's hoping though for Saturday....

I reckon that given you can usually play every Saturday in March and April (again, touch wood), we only need to play 2 league games plus our BCFA Cup semi in the whole of Jan and Feb to be able to complete the season without any midweek games. If we lose our cup semi, we'd only need to play one league game in those two months. Only BCFA team to beat BSXI 4 times since 12th December 2009.....

Sad thing is, one of our lads asked me on Sat if I could remember lace up footballs...I couldn't lie, I remember vividly trying not to head the ball and catch the laces! Oh the joy of those new fangled "plastic coated" leather balls being invented! Good old Mitre!! Changed the game without doubt.

Selfishly, I'd quite like all games to be called off until about mid-January.

Looking very very dodgy for tomorrow.  Following overnight rain heavy sleet and snow was falling in Saltford at 6.10 when I left home, and someone who has just come in from 4 miles from Welton said snow was on the ground. Am expecting a call from Lenny in due course, to say don't bother packing the kit.
