Merstham match postponed

Following a pitch inspection, tonight's game at home to Merstham has been postponed.

With a thick layer of snow still covering the pitch and temperatures not expected to rise above freezing until later tonight, the referee had no choice to postpone the game.

Unfortunately, although 3G pitches are resistant to most challenges posed by inclement weather, when covered with snow it can cause damage to the underlying surface if it is scraped off.

This is our first weather-related postponement since the 3G surface was laid four and a half years ago in the summer of 2013.

A new date for the fixture will be announced in due course, and our next fixture will now be at home to Folkestone Invicta on Saturday 16th December. Kick off is at 3pm.
