It's raining again...

And my love of the FA Trophy is certainly at an end (that’s the first and last Supertramp reference that will ever feature on this blog, promise).

Given that it has been raining pretty solidly since yesterday I would imagine there is a big question mark over our re-arranged Trophy tie at Histon tomorrow night. If it is called off, it will be re-scheduled for next Tuesday and our much more important league fixture against Droylsden will be moved for a third time.

On Saturday, while such local footballing powerhouses as Royston Town, Fowlmere, and (somewhat bizarrely) Histon ‘A’ managed to stage home games, the club whose ground has, according to Radio Cambridgeshire, been declared fit for the football league, could not provide a playable pitch. I doubt Histon FC wanted the game to be postponed any more than we did, but they’ve been having problems with their playing surface every winter for a number of years now and it’s about time they got their house in order.

Oh well, I guess there’s no point moaning too much. Hopefully JQ will be getting some reinforcements in before the window closes so our squad can survive any fixture backlog. I guess having a lot of games in a short space of time can also be a good thing, if we can get some momentum going that is. Interesting times.
