You could have 140 years of no achievement, or twenty years of glorious victories, you decide.

37 minutes left to play lets go from there! I've seen it done before, lets play the last 37 minutes next week!

Full investigation needed.
It won't happen.

Done a bit of research on John Fenty (their chairman)

It appears he is a Conservative Councillor and also sold his business for £20 million.

Hard to argue with that to be honest (although it would have looked a bit better actually on the pitch), but the official's still made a farce of what was played of the second half!

Playing the remainder of a game has happened before, hasn't it? In Spain? Although of course it won't happen in this case.

Edit: my earlier fish pun was intentional ;)

Nope, I think something like that happened at Real Madrid a few years ago, where they came back the week after just to play the last 5 minutes but I've never seen anything like that in this country.

I was on the toilet when the game was actually called off, so could somebody clarify the whole chairman coming onto the pitch incident please :D

Unfortunately it's going to be a tough task fitting this fixture back into the calendar:

The only 'spare' tuesday night (for both clubs) is now Tuesday 12th April.
