Re: Northampton Spencer Game Postponed
One very good reason to get out of this league, and the crazy cup prioritization, that will basically be 3 weeks without a game for us, not the best prep for the Vase game :(
I would assume we are trying to sort out a friendly or something

Re: Northampton Spencer Game Postponed
We wouldn't have played anyway, there's no way Spencer's ground would have been in a state to play
Re: Northampton Spencer Game Postponed
Would there be any significant cost implications for these postponed games or does it just work itself out by the end of the season?

Re: Northampton Spencer Game Postponed
We get better gates for Saturday games than midweek, so if any are played midweek that will impact.

Re: Northampton Spencer Game Postponed
FFS, I was looking forward to this. Can't wait to get out of this league. I like (most of) the teams but this stupid cup prioritisation is really annoying. The league's the league FFS! Surely Spencer will lose out themselves on a bigger crowd?

Re: Northampton Spencer Game Postponed
Completely agree with people's frustrations, I realise why they do it with the odd team not having floodlights but it still seems ****ing ludicrous and irritating that cups that are effectively reserve competitions are taking priority over the games that actually matter and N Spencer will probably lose out if the rearranged date is midweek, which I suspect it will be. The drop in midweek attendances compared to Saturday games this season for us (the Bugbrooke midweek crowd was almost 50% lower than the BPW crowd a few days earlier on Saturday) also shows the impact such fixture changes have :twisted:

It looks like you are right - Spencer are now starting an appeal following the damage the flooding caused.SouthRushdenJFC wrote:We wouldn't have played anyway, there's no way Spencer's ground would have been in a state to play
